Dry mouth or a decrease in urine output possibly ?
Answer:
Independent variable: ALTITUDE
dependent variable: GROWTH OF PLANTS
Confounding variable: STOREYS OF THE BUILDING
Explanation:
In an experiment, the basic components i.e primary variables that an experiment should contain, are the independent and dependent variables.
- The independent variable is the variable that is changed or manipulated in an experiment. In this experiment, the ALTITUDE of the plant is the independent variable.
- The dependent variable is the variable that responds to changes to the independent variable. It is the variable measured in an experiment. In this case, the dependent variable is the GROWTH OF THE PLANTS.
- The confounding variable is a variable that has an extra influence on the outcome of the experiment. In other words, the confounding variable has an impact on the dependent variable. In this case, the confounding variable is the STOREYS OF THE BUILDING.
Answer:
B. nuclease (destroys DNA and RNA)
Explanation:
Viruses are the particles that contain a protein coat called the capsid. Inside the capsid, viruses have their genetic material. Viruses may have single-stranded or double-stranded DNA molecules or single-stranded or double-stranded RNA molecules as their genetic material. Therefore, to destroy viruses, one must target their genetic material. Nucleases are enzymes that digest nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). The use of nucleases would destroy the genetic material of viruses and would be most effective to control them.
