In natural experiments, the researcher compares groups exposed or not to exogenous agents, but does intervene in group composition or independent variable modification. This is a natural experiment.
<h3>
What is a natural experiment?</h3>
There are two types of investigation strategies,
- Manipulative investigation
In a natural experiment the researcher does not intervene in the creation of treatment and control groups.
There is an exogenous agent, such as a natural phenomenon, that influences the study groups and that acts as the treatment.
The researcher takes advantage of these events to use these random groups to compare them in the study.
The researcher chooses exposed groups (experimental groups) that might have been affected by the natural event and other groups that have not been affected (control groups).
In the exposed example,
- Exogenous agent ⇒ Treatment ⇒ pesticide use
- Exposed group ⇒ Experimental group ⇒ birds from nests in pesticide-sprayed fields
- Not exposed groups ⇒ Control groups ⇒ birds from nests in unsprayed fields.
Since the researcher does not voluntarily modify the independent variable to observe a response in the dependent variable, this experiment could not be considered to be manipulative.
This is an example of a natural experiment in which the researcher chooses groups exposed to different conditions to compare them and analyze the effect of the pesticide.

Answer:
no
Explanation:
something has to be living in order to grow
Answer:
B
Explanation:
RNAi is a cellular mechanism for post-transcriptional gene silencing. After transcription of a gene into mRNA, small interfering RNA (siRNA) and microRNA (miRNA) can target the mRNA to form dsRNA. This mRNA then becomes a target of ribonucleases such as the Dicer that break it apart. These mRNA, therefore, do not reach the cytoplasm for translation by ribosomes. This mechanism is hence harnessed and manipulated by scientists to study genes by silencing them.
Answer:
The third stage in the synthesis of fatty acids is the synthesis of palmitic acid (letter e)
Explanation:
The synthesis of fatty acids takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell. The first step is the transport of acetyl-CoA to the cytoplasm. This came in the form of citrate usually from the pyruvate generated in the glycolysis from the mitochondria. The citrate is enzymatically transformed into acetyl-CoA.
Once the acetyl-CoA is in the cytoplasm, this is transformed into malonyl-CoA. This molecule will be the donor of two carbons in the synthesis of fatty acids.
In the final step takes place a cyclic process of reactions (condensation, reduction, hydration and second reduction) to synthesize the palmitic acid ( 16 carbons) by the fatty acid synthase.
