Answer: Option B

Explanation: Whenever any experiment is performed there are two types of variable in the experiment. One is the dependent variable and other one is the independent variable.

The independent variable can be defined as the variable which is not constant and can be changed in the experiment by the experimenter. Example: The temperature, pH, amount of nutrients.

The dependent variable is actually the result of the experiment which is to be obtained. In the given question the number of bacterial colonies grown after 3 days is the dependent variable.

Explain the difference between El Nino and La Nina.
MAVERICK [17]

Hey there!

El Nino typically involves waters with a warmer than usual surface temperature, a flatter thermocline (cooler water moves to the surface), and weaker trade winds. As for La Nina, think of it as the opposite of El Nino. There will be stronger trade winds, and cooler surface water temperatures.

Hope this helps!
