5. D. Implement
4. E. Adjust
6. F. Monitor
The correct answer is C. The temperature of the water
Explanation:
In an experiment such as the one described about the speed of snails in water, the manipulated variable is the factor or element that is manipulated on purpose. This means the researcher or researchers slightly change this element to compare how this affects another variable. In this context, the manipulated variable is the temperature of the water because researchers used three different temperatures (cool, room-temperature, and warm), and therefore they manipulated or changed this factor. Moreover, it is expected temperature affects the distance nails move, which is the main variable.
Enzymes lower activation energy through various means, including positioning substrates together in the proper orientation, applying torque on the substrates, providing the proper charge or pH microenvironment, and adding or removing functional groups on the substrates.
