The defining abiotic factor of deserts is "A) the amount of rainfall" which is relatively very little in deserts. Desert climates can be found almost everywhere in the world.
Black squirrels may increase in a certain area due to natural selection because of the ground below it being dark so the squirrels would adapt to the terrain, making them harder to see by predators.
EXAMPLE: if a light fur colored squirrel is on a dark terrain, an Owl or Large bird could easily see the color differentiation and notice that it is a small land organism (prey).
So the squirrels kin would evolve in the sense that they would have darker fur to match their inhabitance
Answer:
In animal field studies, why do scientists usually try to work without making the animals aware that the humans are present? It is necessary to observe the animals without disturbing them. When a controlled experiment is not possible, why do scientists try to identify as many relevant variables as possible?
Answer:
fruit weight
Explanation:
In an experiment, the dependent variable is the variable that responds to the changes made to the independent variable. In other words, the dependent variable, as the name implies, is DEPENDENT on another variable called independent variable. The dependent variable is the variable that is measured or recorded by the experimenter during the experiment.
In this case where a student is studying the effect of fertilizer on fruit growth. He uses 6 tomato plants, which were given different concentrations of fertilizer (independent variable). After the experiment, the weight of the tomato fruit were measured. This means that the FRUIT WEIGHT is the dependent or responding variable.
