Answer:

A possible hypothesis would be:

IF a yeast cell is supplied with maltose sugar, THEN it would yield the greatest amount of energy when metabolized by bacteria

Explanation:

The hypothesis is a testable explanation aimed at providing a theoretical explanation to a question. The hypothesis is a predictive statement about the possible solution, which can be tested. A hypothesis must be testable via experimentation. It often has an IF, THEN format.

Hence, in the case experiment where a student wanted to know which sugar (maltose, glucose or sucrose) would yield the greatest amount of energy for the cell when metabolized by mitochondria. A possible hypothesis of this experiment will be that: IF a yeast cell is supplied with maltose sugar, THEN it would yield the greatest amount of energy when metabolized by bacteria

Note that, this hypothesis must be testable by conducting an experiment and it doesn't have to be true. It can be disproved or proved by the outcome of the experiment. In this case, the hypothesis is giving an educated guess that maltose is the sugar that will yield the greatest amount of energy for yeast cells

What is natural selection (not from google) give an example of what natural selection is
ruslelena [56]
Natural selection is nature’s way of keeping the best fit-to-live things alive, and so on continue to the next generations.

For example, if a rabbit has a limp, it is bound to be out run and eaten by a predator relatively early in its life (unless it is extremely lucky.) Because of this, it is unable to reproduce, and there genes that it contained to have its limp are unable to spread through inheritance. Natural selection goes both ways. For example, if a hawk has very god vision, it will be able to scope out its prey easily, so it will thrive. Therefore, when it produces offspring of its own, its trait of good eyesight will pass on to its offspring.

So, as enough time goes on, the bad traits will be weeded out and the good ones will remain.
