An experiment is done on 90 people to test their vitamin D levels: 30 are given vitamin D tablets, 30 are told to spend 15 minut

es in the sun each day and 30 are kept inside and not given any supplements. What is the control group? What is the dependent variable? What is the independent variable?

Answer:

The correct answer is -

The control group: the group of people with no supplements and kept inside.

The dependent variable: Vitamin D level in all groups.

The independent variable: the source of vitamin D (sun or tablets)

Explanation:

The control group of any experiment is the group of subjects that did not receive any type of treatment or did not manipulate by the independent variable. Here the group of 30 people that kept inside and did not get supplements is the control group.

The independent variable is a variable that directly affects the dependent variable by a change in the independent variable. In this experiment, the sunlight and vitamin D tablets are independent variables that affect the vitamin D level in people.

The dependent variable is a variable that is affected by the independent variable or depends on the independent variable, vitamin level is the dependent variable.

What parts of the brain interpret pain impulses?
malfutka [58]
<span>Hurting yourself usually is not fun at all, especially stubbing your toe, but when that happens, the signals move rapidly up insulated nerve fibers to the brains thalamus which is like a relay station and directs them over to the sensory cortex of the brain. The signals are then interpreted by the brain as a sharp pain, and

If an allele makes up one fourth of a population's alleles for a given trait, its relative frequency is
alekssr [168]

.25

This is because 1/4 = .25

To find the allele frequency, you need to find the decimal representation of the fraction.

For example: If an allele makes up four twentieths of a population's alleles, then the frequency would be .2 (4/20 = .2)

In 1918, the Russian Tsar Nicholas II was deposed, and he and his family were reportedly executed and buried in a shallow grave.
GaryK [48]

Answer:

By making a paternity test by Short tandem repeats, or STRs (microsatellites).

Explanation:

Short tandem repeats, or STRs, are microsatellites consisting of repeated sequences of 2 to 6 base pair length monomers  in tandem, and most of them have a high degree of polymorphism. Half of an individual microsatellites are inherited by each parent, and they can be assesed by PCR amplification and further electrophoresis.

In this case, you would try to recover a bone from the remainings of the woman, the Tsar and his wife, since the rest of the latest were in a shallow grave with many different individuals. Preferably, you should manipulate this samples in an ancient DNA facility (aDNA) with proper techniques. You clean the bone samples, drill them, and from internal bone powder make a DNA extraction. After this, you perform a series of PCR targeting a panel of STRs, and electrophoresis. If the woman claim is true, half of her microsatellites should have correspondence with the Tsar, and half with the ones of his wife.
