The correct answer is option (A) Variation in the strawberry plants.
When the effect of fertilizer on the growth of two strawberry plants is tested, unavoidable source of experimental error is the variation in the strawberry plants. Variation refers to the deviation or differences from the normal plant which can be due to genetic variation. It is due to change in the DNA sequence. If any one of the two plants being tested show variation, the rate of metabolism differs and changes the growth pattern of the plant. The rate of absorption of water and nutrients is effected which brings change in the growth of the plant and causes an error in the experiment and the result.
Answer:
The two strands of the parent DNA are separated, and two daughter DNA strands are formed.
Explanation:
DNA replication is a complex process which replicates or produces new DNA molecule from the parent DNA molecule mediated by enzymes and ATP.
The mechanism of DNA replication is known as the semi-conservative mode in which one new strand of DNA is synthesized complementary to the one strand of DNA. To form a new DNA molecule both the strand of the DNA gets separated and then a new daughter strand is formed complementary to each parent strand.
Thus, the selected option is correct.
Nitrogen is the major nutrient required by grass and is used to
stimulate high growth rates and is key to achieving high yields, however
if too much nitrogen is applied this can have a negative effects on
quality.
High rates of nitrogen can also cause problems with silage
fermentation due to excess nitrate having a negative impact on the
fermentation process and will produce silage that is less palatable and
the animals will be less keen to eat it.

Nitrate is generally taken up by grasses quicker than it is
incorporated into proteins and until used this excess known as luxury
uptake is stored in the leaves. Excess nitrate will be present if
insufficient time is allowed between application and mowing and can also
occur under conditions of poor growth eg low light levels, cool
temperatures. It is also a problem if there is a dry spell after
application, when nitrate cannot be taken up by the roots, followed by a
period of wet weather that results in luxury uptake. The plant cannot
convert it to protein quickly enough so it accumulates in the plant.

High rates of nitrogen may cause a reduction in crop sugars as they
are used to provide energy for the increased rate of plant growth and
for the manufacture of plant proteins and this increased growth rate may
in turn lead to lower crop dry matter content although in practice this
is often not significant.
Excess nitrate can be avoided by following the Grassland Rule to apply nitrogen at the rate of no more than 2.5 kg N/ha/day.
<h2>Answer:</h2>
Option B is correct.
B. In an exothermic reaction, excess energy is released as heat.
<h2>Explanation:</h2>
An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy by light or heat. It is the opposite of an endothermic reaction. Expressed in a chemical equation: reactants → products + energy. Exothermic Reaction means "exo" meaning releases and "thermic" means heat.
