Dan has noticed that when he adds fertilizer to his garden soil his strawberry plants seem to grow better. Dan wonders if it is
madreJ [45]

The correct answer is - the variable.

With the experiment, in the way that Dan had decided to perform it, the fertilizer is the variable, as in one of the parts with strawberries he uses fertilizer, while in the other part he doesn't uses fertilizer.

While this kind of experiment may give Dan some answers, and he might notice differences, still he would have to be more detailed in the experiment to see for sure if the fertilizer is the thing that makes some of the strawberries grow better than the others.

Dan should also put all of the strawberries at places that would receive the same amount of light, experience the same weather conditions, receive the same amount of water, and to be planted in a soil of the same quality. Only like this, after putting the fertilizer, Dan can now if it makes any changes or not.

Check each statement that applies to the atmosphere as a natural resource.
GalinKa [24]

The correct statements are:

1. The atmosphere interacts with the hydrosphere to redistribute water over the surface of the Earth;

2. The atmosphere interacts with several Earth spheres, including the lithosphere;

3. Wind from the atmosphere creates ocean waves and currents;

The atmosphere is one of the few spheres, and it is of crucial importance for the life on our planet, but also for the shape of the world, and redistribution of temperature. Any slight change in it affects the whole planet significantly, and that just proves its importance. It can be a blessing, and it can be a curse with its activity, but whichever way it is, it is part of the natural process of our planet.

Answer:

Explanation:

The Calvin cycle represent the second phase of photosynthesis ( the dark phase of the reaction not because it is dark but because it not dependent on light). The ATP and NADPH produced in the light dependent phase used to synthesize glucose. The intermediates and there carbon content are stated below:

3 molecules of carbon dioxide    total carbon = 3 carbon

6 molecules of 3-phosphoglycerate   total carbon = 18 carbon

6 molecules of 1,3-Bisphosphoglycerate total carbon = 18 carbon

5 molecules of glyceraldehyde -3-phosphate  total carbon = 15 carbon

3 molecules of Ribulose-5-phosphate            total carbon = 15 carbon

3 molecules of Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate    total carbon = 15 carbon
