A scientist wants to test whether the pH, salinity, and temperature of seawater impacts coral development. He sets up an experim

ent with three conditions: Aquarium 1: Normal pH, normal salinity, normal temperature Aquarium 2: High pH, high salinity, high temperature Aquarium 3: Low pH, low salinity, low temperature He finds that coral grow the least in Aquarium 2. He concludes that coral does not grow well in conditions with high salt. Why is this an invalid conclusion?

He was testing more than one variable in the aquarium which would change the outcome of the experiment. it could have been the Ph levels or the temperature of the water.

In the given experiment, the scientist is checking for the effect of more than one variable on the development of the coral, which includes the pH, the salinity, and the temperature. The conclusion that the coral do not grow in the water with high salinity is wrong as in that aquarium, the pH, and the temperature were also high. They could also have been the factors behind the decreased growth of the corals. One variable should be tested at a single time to arrive at a valid conclusion.

How are the layers of the earth alike and different?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Well, Earth is the same way! Earth is made up of several different layers, each of which has unique properties. Both parts of the core are made up of mostly iron and some nickel. The difference is that in the inner core, those minerals are solid and in the outer core, they're liquid.

Above 380C and below OoC the rate of photosynthesis decreases. Propose a hypothesis to explain why this occurs.
Effectus [21]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Enzyme activity decrease at these temperatures. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Photosynthesis is facilitated by the action of various enzymes and involves light and dark reactions.  In <em>light reactions chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and creates ATP AND NADPH</em>. In dark reactions carbon is fixed using the <em>ATP and NADPH. </em>

The efficiency of all these activities depends on the activity of enzymes which depends on the temperature. The optimum temperature range where the enzyme activity is optimal is about <em>10°c - 20°c</em>. At low temperatures and high temperatures enzyme activity is less efficient.

<em>At a temperature above 38°c and below  0°c enzyme activity decreases. </em>
