Answer:

This is to ensure accurate recording and  interpretations of the observed results without Carbohydrate.

To ensure that the observed results was due to the expected investigating factor, and not due to any external factor.

Explanation:

The basal media without  carbohydrate is the negative control setup. since there is no carbohydrate their will be no  bacterial growth .Therefore the activities of the bacteria can be fully observed . However the basal media with carbohydrate  have full growth since CHO is available as nutrient; ,asexual reproduction will occur and growth takes palce.  Thus the control(without CHO) and the  actual experiment can be compared for accuracy. Therefore the basal media without CHO. acted as active negative control for results analysis and interpretation.

In addition the two growth media  should be   inoculated. Thus any observable changes can be attributed to bacterial growth, and not due to any external factors.This justify  reasons for the answers above.

Answer:

As a control, which, in this case, is a negative control. Since there is no carbohydrate added there will be no bacterial growth. In your tubes which do have some carbohydrate there will be bacterial growth. Since you used a control you can compare any changes in the tubes in which you have growth to the tubes without growth, which would represent the original state of the media. This makes any results easier to notice and interpret rather than having to remember what the tubes used to look like.

It also ensures that any change in the media is due to the growth of the bacteria and not some external factor. Since both sets of tubes were inoculated but only one set shows some change you can be sure that that change is due to the growth of the bacteria.

Answer: i believe it is mutation

Explanation: An insertion mutation occurs when an extra nucleotide is added to the DNA strand during replication. This can happen when the replicating strand "slips," or wrinkles, which allows the extra nucleotide to be incorporated (Figure 2). Strand slippage can also lead to deletion mutations.

if during DNA replication there was an incorrect pairing of the nitrogenous base pairs, leading to a possible change in the code
Eddi Din [679]

. DNA replication is a highly accurate process, but mistakes can occasionally occur as when a DNA polymerase inserts a wrong base. Uncorrected mistakes may sometimes lead to serious consequences, such as cancer. ... Mutations: In this interactive, you can “edit” a DNA strand and cause a mutation.

Which statement is true about climate change and biodiversity?
8090 [49]
Climate change and biodiversity are two completely different things. In some areas, climate change will increase biodiversity, allowing more species to live in certain climates, but it will make some species lose their habitats. Biodiversity helps ecosystems thrive, and generally keeps things in balance. However, introducing too many species in an area can cause increase competition for food, risking predators of different species to kill one another off. Both climate change and biodiversity can be good and bad.

Answer: C. It can help some species and hurt others.

A Tropical Rain Forest biome is normally limited to low altitudes near the equator.
Kay [80]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Tropical rain forest are one of the important biomes of the world that is characterized by a short or no dry season and a precipitation of overall 60 mm each month. They are also known as lowland equatorial evergreen rainforest. If we talk about location, they mostly are found between  fall between the Tropic of Cancer and the Capricorn since they lie near to equator and they receive sufficient amount of sunshine and rain.

Due to their location near the equators, they receive greater amount of sunshine than other biomes and when sunshine is greater the rate of water evaporation is also greater that results in more rainfall.


Hope it help!
