Answer:

Correct answer is - Type of light environment

Explanation:

An Independent variable is the variable or condition that is controlled or changed in research or experiment to check the effect on dependent variable.

Dependent variable is the variable in any experiment that is being measured or studied. Plant growth over time is dependent variable and therefore the independent variable is type of light environment in this experiment.

Why is it important to stain youngcultures of bacteria with<br> the grain stain?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Because older cultures of gram-positive bacteria tend to lose their ability to retain crystal-violet in the peptidoglycan of their cell walls and can be confused with gram-negative bacteria.

Explanation:

Gram staining is used to differentiate between two major groups of bacteria. Gram-positive and gram-negative, these bacteria differ in the amount of peptidoglycan in their cell walls. Gram-positive bacteria have a higher amount of peptidoglycan, which absorbs the violet crystal complex used in gram staining, staining them purple/violet. Old cultures of gram-positive bacteria tend to lose the ability to retain the violet crystal and are stained by safranine, staining them red/pink and appear to be gram-negative.

A lion has sharp pointed teeth while a buffalo has flat, broad teeth. Why do you think the teeth in these animals differ?

Explanation:A carnivor will have sharp pointed teeth because a lion eats meat and needs to rip it apart whereas a buffalo eats leaves and plants (herbivores)so they have flat teeth as leaves are easier to bite and chew than meat.
