Answer:
The correct answer will be-
1. independent variable- the type of fertilizer
2. dependent variable- height of the plants
3. control group- The quadrant without any fertilizer treatment
4. Importance of control group- acts as reference to the experimental group as is performed without the key component in natural conditions.
Explanation:
A scientific experiment contains three types of variable and is divided into two types of group of samples.
The variables studied in the experiment are;
1. Independent variable: parameter which changes or is induced to change as per the demand of the experiment like the type of fertilizer in the experiment.
2. Dependent variable: parameter which depends on the independent variable and has to be studied in the experiment like the height or growth of the plant.
3. Control group: the group of samples left untreated in which the key component like fertilizer is not provided. So, the quadrant without any fertilizer treatment will be considered the control group.
Plasma is the liquid component of blood, in which the red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets are suspended. It constitutes more than half of the blood's volume and consists mostly of water that contains dissolved salts (electrolytes) and proteins.
