A researcher is interested in finding out if the amount of amylase, a digestive enzyme found in saliva responsible for digesting

starch, varies from person to person. Which of the following would be the best way to test this?
Take consistent amounts of saliva samples from a number of people whose meal times vary and measure the quantity of amylase in each sample.

Take consistent amounts of saliva samples from a number of people who have not eaten in 8 hours and measure the quantity of amylase in each sample.

Take varying amounts of saliva samples from a number of people whose meal times vary and measure the quantity of amylase in each sample.

Take varying amounts of saliva samples from a number of people who have not eaten in 8 hours and measure the quantity of amylase in each sample.

Take consistent amounts of saliva samples from a number of people who have not eaten in 8 hours and measure the quantity of amylase in each sample.Taking consistent amounts of saliva allows the experiment to be controlled, and also all after 8 hours is also being consistent. Just varying who produces the saliva is the scientific method, trying to limit the variables to one thing at a time so the results are easier to interpret.

The answer is <span>Take consistent amounts of saliva samples from a number of people who have not eaten in 8 hours and measure the quantity of amylase in each sample.

First, the researcher needs to know the quantity of amylase in the <u>same</u> amount of saliva. Thus the amount must be consistent and not varying. 
Next, people must not eat in 8 hours, so they are all in the same condition at the moment of collecting saliva. If some eat immediately before the sample collecting while some eat 8 hours before, the content of their saliva will be different. 
For the correct results, all conditions must be the same.</span>

Joshua is preparing a report to show the relationship
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

yes

Explanation: The atoms and molecules that make up a gas are constantly moving. Temperature is a measure of the speed with which they move (more accurately it is a measure of their kinetic energy). The higher the temperature, the faster they move.  It is thus produced a greater intensity in the collisions against the walls: the pressure of the container containing the gas increases.In this way, if the graph shows the increase in temperature as well as the increase in speed, yes, it is correct.

What are the loosely packed photosynthetic cells in the leaf called? A. epidermis B. guard cells C. spongy mesophyll D. palisade
Karolina [17]

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

These cells are soft because of its function. Gaseous exchange takes place by the help of these cells. Spongy mesophyll cells are covered by thin layer of water and are loosely packed.

This is because, during the day time when the plant is performing photosynthesis these cells allows the carbon dioxide into the mesophyll cells and the oxygen out of the plant body.
