Answer:

The correct answer is - C. The amount of folic acid is the independent variable, and the DNA synthesized is the dependent variable.

Explanation:

DNA is the genetic material of most of the living organisms. In this question, Joe wants to study to see the effect of folic acid on the synthesis of the DNA. Folic acid ae the essential nutrients or vitamin for the synthesis of nitrogen bases of the DNA that are purines and pyrimidines. A dependent variable and an independent variable are two important part of any experiment.

A dependent variable is a variable being tested and measured. In the experiment Jon is conducting, the amount of DNA becomes a dependent variable that is being tested and measured in the presence of folic acid.  And folic acid is the independent variable tested to check the formation of DNA in bacteria.

Thus, the correct answer is - C. The amount of folic acid is the independent variable, and the DNA synthesized is the dependent variable.

Natali [406]

An area where soil has eroded experience loss of nutrients. The topmost layer of soil is called the topsoil and is the most fertile. Soil erosion results in the loss of soil fertility and makes the land barren

The main cause of soil erosion is the removal of vegetation, which exposes the topsoil to water and wind. Wind and water are the main agents of soil erosion.

Water erosion can be sheet erosion, rill erosion, gully erosion or riparian erosion.

The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

Question: Impulses originating in the part of the brain called the medulla would most directly affect which body structure?

a. A leg muscle

b. A ligament

c. An arm bone

d. The heart

Answer:

d. The heart

Explanation:

The medulla oblongata contains a number of reflex centers for regulating vital body functions such as heartbeat, breathing, and vasoconstriction. The medulla contains several nuclei, a collection of neuronal cell bodies.

For example, impulses originated in the cardiovascular center regulates the rate and force of the heartbeat and the diameter of blood vessels. Impulses from the cardiovascular center flow along sympathetic and parasympathetic neurons. An increase in sympathetic stimulation from the cardiovascular center of medulla increases heart rate and contractility while a decrease in sympathetic stimulation decreases heart rate and contractility.
