Explain How does the gradient of a river affect its flow?

Biology
1 answer:
djverab [1.8K]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

The flow of the river is dependent upon the position along the stream in terms of the gradient. Near the top of a high gradient, the flow will be less than that near the bottom. Likewise, the steeper the river's gradient, the faster the flow of water (due to the pull of water down the gradient by gravity).

Rachael wants to test how sunlight impacts plant growth over time. She will add varying amounts of light to different sets of pl
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Independent variable: varying amounts of light

Dependent variable: plant growth

Explanation:

The variable, which are factors that can be altered, in an experiment can either be independent or dependent. An independent variable is one in which the experimenter manipulates or controls in order to bring about an outcome. For this experiment conducted by Rachel, the independent variable is the VARYING AMOUNT OF LIGHTS.

The dependent variable is the variable that responds to changes of the independent variable. In other words, the dependent variable is the outcome of manipulating the independent variable. Hence, the dependent variable is dependent on the independent variable. For Rachel's experiment, the PLANT GROWTH is the dependent variable because it is what responds to changes in amount of light (independent variable).

This type of bond results in the exchange of electrons?
MissTica
An ionic bond results in an exchange or transfer of electrons between the 2 different types of atoms, most likely the metal atom and nonmetal one.

For example the compound NaF is held together by electrostatic forces of positive and negative charges due to the transfer of electrons from the sodium to fluoride atom.
