The element starts off as 100%. half of 100% is 50% and half of 50% is 25%. the element has emitted 2 times the half life which is 10,000 x 2 = 20,000

In the same science fair, Tina asks the question "Does caffeine
77julia77 [94]

How many drops of caffeine she drops on the worm is the manipulated variable.

In an experiment, the independent variable is a manipulated variable. Due to the fact that you may alter it, it is termed the "manipulated" one. In other words, you can choose in advance whether to raise it or lower it. Only one variable should be changed at a time throughout an experiment.

The Independent variable is Caffeine's impact. the production and use of nitrogen fertilizers, as well as the burning of fossil fuels in autos, power plants, and industries, are dependent variables that are local in scope.  the heart rate of the worm is the responding variable in this experiment.

When an earthworm is given a stimulant like caffeine, its heart rate rises. Does coffee make an earthworm's heart beat faster? is the research topic upon which the experiment is based. The effect of coffee is the independent variable in this research question, and the response it causes is a change in heart rate (the dependent variable) This brings us to the following theory: "If an earthworm is given a stimulant like caffeine, then its heart rate accelerates."

A species of beetle expresses a pigment protein as an adult but not as a juvenile. The pigment is encoded by the gene PIG. A pro
Deffense [45]

Answer:

The KID protein is responsible for the no pigmentation at the juvenile stage. When the KID protein inhibits in the adult state, the pigmentation occurs in the body. This might occur because the KID protein acts as the repressor molecule and acts as a negative regulator of PIG protein.

The KID protein is responsible for pigmentation an adult stage.  Any mutation in the KID gene might result in the loss of pigmentation in the adult. The KID gene is responsible for the binding of the KID protein and mutation in this gene can lead to the arrest of KID protein. The protein is unable to release and PIG continuously repressed in the adults.
