A biology class wanted to study the effect of different materials on the melting rate of ice. They placed pieces of ice, each wi

th a mass of 10g, onto trays. Group 1 was covered in plastic, group 2 was covered in paper, group 3 was covered in aluminum, and group 4 remained uncovered. Each piece of ice was allowed to melt for 15 minutes. Then final mass of the ice, minus the melted water, was recorded at the end of the experiment. What is the dependent variable in this experiment?

The dependent variable is what you are measuring. You are measuring the mass of the ice at the end of the 15 minutes, therefore, your dependent variable is the mass of the ice.

Answer:The ice was the Dependent Variable

Explanation: the outcome of tge experiment would only be determined based on the suroundings, such as the plastic, aluminem, and the paper, all of which effect the ice therefore making the ice the dependent variable

What type of wave interference would affect the amplitude of a wave?
aev [14]
Wave interference may occur when two waves that are traveling in opposite directions meet. The two waves pass through each other, and this affects their amplitude. Amplitude is the maximum distance the particles of the medium move from their resting positions when a wave passes through.

A woman, S.R., had a maternal grandfather with hemophilia A (OMIM 306700), an X-linked recessive condition that reduces blood cl
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Hemophilia is a x-linked recessive inherited bleeding  disorder. in this disease blood does not clot properly due to the decreased level of blood clotting factor VIII (8) or factor IX (9).

In x-linked recessive condition, the disease is transmitted from father (affected male) to his daughter and mother (affected female) to her son and skip of generation getting affected is also occurs.

  • there will be 50% chance of her (S.R.) each son to be affected with hemophilia.

Explanation:

Hemophilia is caused due to mutation of one gene which is responsible for the making of proteins of  blood coagulation factor viii or ix. the affected person bleeds continuously from any injury and that can cause serious issues.

here,

grandfather of s.r is affected (xₐy) and grandmother is normal (xx) will produce

                                                   ↓

 s.r's mother who is a carrier (xₐx) [as xₐy and xx will produce 100% carrier xₐx daughter]

                                                    ↓

s.r's mother is a carrier (xₐx) but her father is normal (xy) will produce,

                                                   ↓

s.r who has 50% chance of being carrier (xₐx) and 50% chance of being normal (xx) [as she is the only child] and she has a normal (xy) partner, they will give,

                                                     ↓

  1. if s.r is a carrier (xₐx) then one of her son will be affected (xₐy)   [as xₐx and xy =xₐy]
  2. if s.r is normal (xx) then her son will be normal (xy) [as xx and xy will give xy]

here,<u> 50% chance of her son to be affected with hemophilia</u> [as S.R of being affected is more considerable].
