Answer:

C is the correct option. Storage of carbohydrates is not a function of the skeletal system.

Explanation:

Option A is correct because the skeletal system has parts like the red bone marrow in which red blood cells and white blood cells are produced.

Option B is correct because the bones store minerals like calcium and phosphorus.

Option D is correct because the major function of the skeletal system is to provide support and protect the vital organs of the body.

The skeletal system is not involved in storing carbohydrates. Hence, all statements are true except for statement C.

Pea plant clones are given different amounts of water for a three week period.
pentagon [3]

Answer:

independent variable: the different amount of water

Explanation:

The independent variable would be the <u>different amount of water supplied to the pea plant clones.</u>

<em>The independent variable is the variable inputted by the researcher during an experiment whose value directly affects the dependent variable. It is the variable that is manipulated during experiments in order to see the kind of effects they produce on another variable - the dependent variable.</em>

In this case, <u>the amount of water supplied to each pea plant would directly affect the height of the pea plants.</u> Hence, the amount of water supplied to the pea plants is the independent variable while the height of the plants is the dependent variable.

Which do you think would adapt and survive overtime to a mass extinction? A starfish or an eel?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Starfish

Explanation:

This is an opinion questions, so there really isn't a right or wrong answer.  You could just as easily choose Eel.  Your task is to pick one and defend your reasoning.

I chose starfish because starfish have a long history of demonstrated adaptability to a wide variety of conditions.  Their armored skin protects them from a variety of predators, as does the poison that many of them contain.  They have the ability to regrow limbs, and even regrow entire starfish from certain body parts.  When it comes time to breed, starfish meet together in groups.  Each female releases a few million eggs from the gonads in each of her arms.  Each male then releases billions of sperm from each gonad in each of his arms, thus covering the eggs with sperm to fertilize them.
