Answer:

The correct answer is option C) "More than one variable is being tested".

Explanation:

One of the basis of scientific experimentation is to test one variable at the time in order to make sure that the response that is being obtained is the result of that variable and not another one that is not taking into account. In this case, the student is making the mistake of assessing two variables at the same time: the use of detergent and placing the plant in the sun or in the shade. At the end of the experiment the student will not know if the response is the effect of the detergent, the exposure to the sun or a combination of both.

 In the experiment several variables are being studied, such as the influence of detergent on seeds and the intervention of the sun or shade on seeds with or without detergent. It should be both groups of seeds in the sun or both groups in the shade.

Answer:

Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide

Explanation:

"Flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) is synthesized from riboflavin and two molecules of ATP. Riboflavin is phosphorylated by ATP to give riboflavin 5′-phosphate (also called flavin mononucleotide, FMN). FAD is then formed from FMN by the transfer of an AMP moiety from a second molecule of ATP."

When glucose is high, camp is _____ : cap _____ bind the lac operator, and rna polymerase _____ bind the lac promoter. high; doe
mote1985 [20]
When glucose is high, cAMP is low; CAP does not bind the lac operator, and RNA polymerase does not bind the lac promoter. CAP is only active when glucose levels are low, which means the cAMP levels are high, and therefore the lac operon can only be transcribed at high rate when glucose is absent.  The importance of this is that the bacteria only turns on the lac operon and start using lactose only after they have used up all the preferred energy source which is glucose.
