A pond contains many different types of organisms. The table below lists some of these organisms and their methods of reproducti

on
Organism
Pantala flavescens
Spirodela polyrhiza
Naegleria foweri
Hydra oligactis
Method of Reproduction
sperm and egg fusion
budding
binary fission
budding
Over time, the pond slowly becomes more acidic due to the release of chemicals from a nearby factory. Which of the organisms would most likely
survive the change to their environment?
A.
Pantala flavescens, because these organisms would have a high level of genetic variation due to sexual reproduction
B.
Hydra oligactis, because these organisms would have a low level of genetic variation due to sexual reproduction
c. Naegleria fowleri, because these organisms would have a high level of genetic variation due to asexual reproduction
D.
Spirodela polyrhiza, because these organisms would have a low level of genetic variation due to asexual reproduction

Answer:

Option A, Pantala flavescens, because these organisms would have a high level of genetic variation due to sexual reproduction

Explanation:

Genetics variation allows as organism to evolve in a way to be able to cope up with the existing or changing environmental condition. Now, a Pantala flavescens undergoes sexual reproduction, thus only this creature has the ability among all the given organism to evolve genetically and be able to survive in this environment.  All the remaining organisms reproduce asexually and hence there is no variation with in them and hence it would be difficult for these organisms to cope up with changing environment.

Hence, option A is correct.

Some students believe that if they drink a glass of milk before bed and would make them sleep longer what’s the independent vari
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

Independent variable: Glass of milk

Dependent variable: Time of sleep

Control variable: same type of milk

Explanation:

Independent variable in an experiment refers to the variable that the experimenter manipulates or changes in order to get a response in another variable (dependent). In this case, the independent variable is the GLASS OF MILK taken before bed.

Dependent variable is that variable that is measured in an experiment. It is the variable that responds to the changes made to the independent variable. In this experiment, the dependent variable is the TIME OF SLEEP of the students.

A control variable or constant is the variable that is kept unchanged throughout the course of the experiment in order not to alter the outcome of the experiment. In this experiment, a control variable can be the SAME TYPE OF MILK taken by each student.

How did the invention of the microscope change our understanding of microbiology?
steposvetlana [31]
Microscopes allowed scientists to observe Prokaryotic cells which make up Bacteria and Archaea. These cells are small and contain no membrane- bound organelles. It allowed them to observe Eukaryotic cells with a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles that perform different life functions.
