One seed was planted in each of 5 pots found around the house that contained 500g of "Pete`s potting Soil." The pots were given

the following amounts of distilled water each day for each day of 40 days: pot 1, 50mL; Pot 2, 100mL; Pot 3, 150mL; Pot 4, 200mL; Pot 5, 250mL. Because Pot 3 received the recommended amount of water it was used as a control. The height of each plant was measured at the end of the experiment. What is the independent variable?

Answer:

The independent variable is amounts of distilled water.

Explanation:

The dependent variable of this experiment is the height of each plant which is dependent on the amounts of distilled water added to each pot. Notice that days and amount of soil are constants. Therefore, the independent variable in this case is the amount of water added to each pot.

Answer:

1. Both neutron stars and black holes are the corpses of stars that died in explosions known as supernovas. Black holes form when the most massive stars die and neutron stars form when stars not as large die. They both have a very strong gravitational pull, but a black hole's pull is stronger than a neutron star. Neutron stars <u>will turn into</u> black holes if the force of gravity breaks the resistance of electrons.

2. White dwarfs are degenerate, which means they can compress matter. The material in a white dwarf no longer undergoes fusion reactions, so it is supported only by electron degeneracy pressure. This causes it to be extremely dense, saving space and energy.

3. A light year is the distance light travels in a year while an astronomical unit is the average distance between the earth and the sun.

4. A convection zone transfers energy by radiation and conduction.

Vegetable shortening is a food product rich in trans fatty acids. It is produced by converting several cis double bonds totransd
liraira [26]

Answer:

Partial hydrogenation

Explanation:

Vegetable oils naturally contain cis fatty acids. These fatty acids have double bonds and the two H atoms are on the same side of bond, producing a kink in  the structure.

Cis fatty acids are converted into trans fatty acids by the process of partial hydrogenation or vegetable shortening. Hydrogen is added to convert some of the double bonds into single bonds but all double bonds are not removed. However, the cis double bonds end up getting converted to trans double bonds. H atoms are now on the opposite sides of the double bond. This arrangement makes the kink disappear from the structure hence trans fat is structurally similar to saturated animal fat. It increases the longevity of fats and makes it solid at room temperature but also has many side effects like increasing bad LDL cholesterol in blood.
