A. Suzie Q wants to know the effect of different colors of light on the growth of plants. She believes that plants can survive b

est in white light. She buys 5 ferns of the same species, which are all approximately the same age and height. She places one in white light, one in blue light, one in green light, one in red light and one in the closet. All of the ferns are planted in Miracle-Grow and given 20 mL of water once a day for 2 weeks. After the two weeks, Suzie observes the plants and makes measurements.

Answer:

This question is incomplete, the complete part is: What is the independent variable in this experiment? A) The plant species B) The amount of water that each plant gets C) The amount of time D) The different types of light the plants were put under.

The answer is D

Explanation:

In an experiment, the INDEPENDENT VARIABLE is the variable that is changed or manipulated by the experimenter in order to effect a measurable response.

In this case, Suzie Q wants to know the effect of different colors of light on the growth of plants. She conducts this experiment using different colors of light namely: white light, green light, blue light, red light etc. This shows that the variable being changed/manipulated is the different colors of light. Hence, the INDEPENDENT VARIABLE is the DIFFERENT TYPES OF LIGHT THE PLANT WERE PUT UNDER.

Kay [80]

Answer:

1. Part A: No

2. Part B: Yes

3: Part C : Yes

4: Part D : No

Explanation:

1) Part A: Facilitated diffusion of glucose into a muscle cell:

No; sodium ion co - transport is required for active transport of glucose but not for facilitated diffusion of glucose

2) Part B: Active transport of dietary phenylalanine across the intestinal mucosa:

Yes; co - transport of sodium ions drives the inward movement of amino acids and can only occur if sodium ions are actively pumped back out again.

3) Part C: Uptake of potassium ions by red blood cells:

Yes; uptake of potassium ions can occur only via a pump that couples the inward pumping of potassium ions to the outward pumping of sodium ions.

4) Part D: Active uptake of lactose by the bacteria in your intestine

No; active uptake of sugars and amino acids in bacteria is driven by a proton gradient.

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The six codons for arginine are the following:

GCA, GCG, GCT, GCC, TCT, TCC

A) Considering the individual bases in each codon, three mutations are possible at each base position. Hence, 3 × 3 × 6 = 54 mutations are possible.

B) Considering the mutations at the 3rd base: 3 × 4 + 1 × 2 = 14 of these mutations are silent mutations.

C) Lysine codons are the following:

TTT, TTC

There are two possible mutations that can give a lys codon.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

What effect does the increased temperature have on the ecology and distribution of plant species
Aliun [14]

Hello!

Higher temperature affects plants’ growth especially in temperate crops like wheat. It reduces the growth of shoots and roots in plants. This, in turn, results in a substantial reduction in the overall height of the plant. High air temperature can lead to dehydration and scorched leaves.

In general, the increase of temperature would cause a damage in ecology of a certain area as most plants would not be able to adapt to this change. This, in turn, will affect the distribution of such plant species as they would die off unless placed in an environment with more favorable conditions.
