bottleneck effect --- > A disease wipes out almost 90% of a population of birds, but the species adapts, and after 5 years its numbers increase dramatically.
gene flow ---> A population of rats travels on a cargo ship and mate with rats in a new region.
founder effect ---> Biologists introduce a small population of lizards on an island as part of a conservation effort.
mutation ---> A change in a DNA sequence causes a lizard to develop a darker skin color, which helps it hide from predators.
She could use a control to compare her data to and make sure it is cleaner. Ex. Use the old detergent on ten shirts and then use the new detergent on another ten shirts. She would then compare the shirts she did each detergent on and come up with her conclusion.
Answer:
Factors that remain constant from experiment to experiment are the constants.
Explanation:
A constant in an experiment is also known as a <em>control variable</em>. It is the part of an experiment that must stay the same in order to validate the experiment. If the constant were to change, the results would be skewed and therefore false.
i.e. you want to test the rate of growth of lima bean plants in different types of lighting. You believe that a lima bean plant that grows in yellow will grow faster and stronger than a lima bean plant that grows in blue or red light.
In this experiment, the constant would be the lima bean plant. You cannot change the type of seed or else your experiment is invalidated. If you tried to use a sunflower seed in the blue lighting and a tomato seed in the red lighting, your results would be invalidated and skewed.
It sounds like conglomerate rock, which is made of other pieces of rock stuck together.
