Biologists designed an experiment to test the effect of compost on the development of root crops. They tested several different

crops, including carrots, potatoes, beets, and onions. They grew most of the plants in the greenhouse, but due to space issues, they had to grow some outdoors. They gave all the plants the same amount of compost. They obtained the compost from a local farmer and from the local hardware store. They ran out of the farmer’s compost, so some of the plants received that compost when the seeds were planted and other plants got hardware store compost after the plants had already started growing.
RESULTS: Some of the roots seemed really big. Other roots seemed normal or small.

CONCLUSION: They couldn’t tell what the effect of the compost was because the results were inconsistent.

Which problems did you include in your answer? Check all that apply.

type of crop

variation in light

no control group

when compost was applied

variation in nutrients

variation in temperature

where plants were grown

compost from different sources

Variation in temperature

Variation in light

and which compost was applied

Alik [6]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

  • Variation in temperature   - because greenhouses moderate temperature, and some weren't in the greenhouse.
  • Where plants were grown  - some plants were outside the greenhouse.
  • When compost was applied - at different times for certain plants
  • Compost from different sources - some from farmer, some from hardware store, and it could be different

Explanation:

Why isn't it the other answers?

  • type of crop  - it's helpful to use different types of crops and compare
  • variation in light  - the greenhouse shouldn't block light due to its transparent panels
  • no control group  - this isn't an issue
  • variation in nutrients  - all the plants should be obtaining the same nutrients through their roots once compost is applied

what would be the most likely effect on cellular respiration if a plant were to lose much of its cjhlorophylkl
goldenfox [79]

Cellular respiration would produce less energy when plant were to lose much of its chlorophyll.

Plants can actually live longer without photosynthesis than they can without respiration. Some plants survive half the year without performing photosynthesis, but if they stop performing cellular respiration, even for a minute, they would be dead where they stand.

During photosynthesis, plants absorb sunlight and carbon dioxide from the air. Through a series of steps, much like cellular respiration, they convert these reactants into the products oxygen and glucose. The plants then can use the oxygen and glucose to make ATP in cellular respiration. The rate of respiration is greater than the rate of photosynthesis. So this means there is an overall excess of carbon dioxide is produced during respiration.

Are there differences in the DNA in different types of human body cells
NeX [460]
The DNA is stored in the nucleus of the cell. Different genes are active in different kinds of cells. Most living things are composed of different kinds of cells specialized to perform different functions. A liver cell, for example, does not have the same biochemical duties as a nerve cell.

Identify the resources that cannot be replenished within the average span one human life.
Gelneren [198K]

Hello llockard,

The answer is <em>pe</em><em>t</em><em>roleum.</em><em>.</em><em>.</em><em> </em>It is because trees, water, plants, natural gas can take only 2 - 31 years to be made again... BUT, in case of petroleum, it takes nearly 100000 years, which is impossible for any human to live that much years... So, use petroleum carefully....

<em>Hope</em><em> it</em><em> helped</em><em> you</em><em>.</em><em>.</em><em>.</em><em> </em><em>please</em><em> mark</em><em> me</em><em> brainliest</em>
