Triss [41]3 years ago

Answer and Explanation:

During an experiment, data from an experimental group are compared with the data of a control group. These two sets are identical in all aspects except for the independent variable that the researcher changes in the experimental group to observe how they affect the individuals. This variable keeps constant in the control group.

The experimental group is the one that receives the experimental procedure, with changes in the independent variable.  There can be several experimental groups.

In the control group, the variable measured keeps constant, not influencing the results. This isolates the effect of the independent variable on the experiment and helps to find alternative explanations to the different results.

In the exposed example:

  • Control group: Certain amounts of fishes exposed to a normal number of light hours per day. For example, if under natural conditions in its original environment the species is exposed to 12 hour light, then the control group should be exposed constantly to 12 hours light a day to maintain its normal reproductive levels.
  • Experimental group: Certain amounts of fishes, equal to the control group, exposed to a different number of light hours per day. For example, there might be 5 experimental groups: one of them exposed to 4 hours light, a second group exposed to 8 hours light, the third group exposed to 12 hours light (The same as the control group), the fourth group exposed to 16 hours light, and the fifth group exposed to 20 hours light.

Except for light, the rest of the variables should be the same for all the groups.

The label on a bag of salt-free pretzels indicates that they chips are "low-fat." this means the pretzels provide _____ gram(s)
Brilliant_brown [7]

The label on a bag of salt-free pretzels indicates that their chips are "low-fat." this means the pretzels provide 3 gram(s) of fat or less per serving.

Low-fat diets are diets in which the fats are reduced. Low-fat diets are produced in order to prevent diseases such as obesity and heart diseases. Food manufacturers usually use nutrient claims such as '‘low fat’' to indicate the nutritional value of their products. A ‘low fat’ food contains not more than 3g of fat per 100g of food  (for solids) and not more than 1.5g fat per 100g (for liquids).

HELP! Me!
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

They camouflage

Explanation:

The peppered moths adapt to their surroundings. They blend in with their surroundings to avoid being eaten by their predators. Blending in with their surrounding also helps them to sneak up on and catch their prey.

I'm not too sure why they lay 100 eggs at a time but i think it's because the parents want to increase the survival of their eggs. Eggs sometimes are eaten by other animals and the parents want at least a few to survive.
