Answer:
A new mutation
Explanation:
A mutation refers to the random changes in the DNA of organisms. A mutation changes the allele and genotype frequencies by the introduction of a new allele in the gene pool.
However, mutations are not the major factor responsible for changes in the gene pool of a population as mutations are rare. The rate of mutations is very slow and does not allow it to serve as a major factor to change the allele and genotype frequencies.
There are 11 organelles in total,
vacuoles: they store water
Chloroplasts: trap energy from the sun to produce food for plant cell
Cell wall: provides support and protection to the cell membrane,
Cell membrane: thin flexible barrier around a cell, controls what enters/ leaves the cell
Nucleus: 'The control center', carries the DNA of the cell
Ribosomes: Found in all cells, their jobs are to make protein
Endoplasmic Reticulum: The internal delivery system of the cell
Golgi complex: Transports materials throughout the cell
Lysosomes: Break down food into particles the cell can use. another function is they destroy old or dying cells
Mitochondria: Breaks down food to make ATP
and last but not least cytoplasm a jelly like fluid in the cell that keeps the organelles suspended
Answer:
a. Manipulated variable: TEMPERATURE
b. Responding variable: CRICKET CHIRP
c. Controlled variable: Same species of cricket
d. Hypothesis: IF the temperature is increased, THEN crickets will chirp more
Explanation:
Independent variable, also called the manipulated variable, is the variable that is changed or manipulated in an experiment. In this case, the independent variable is the TEMPERATURE.
Dependent or responding variable is the variable that responds to changes made to the independent variable. The dependent variable in this case is CHIRP OF THE CRICKETS.
Controlled variable is the variable that must be kept unchanged for all groups throughout the experiment. The controlled variable in this case is SAME SPECIES CRICKET USED.
Hypothesis is a testable explanation (via experimentation) to an observed problem or a given question. In this investigation involving Melissa, an hypothesis is: IF the temperature is increased, THEN crickets will chirp more.
Answer:
A. 1000
Explanation:
The Richter scale is a scale of numbers used to measure the magnitude of an earthquake, which is based on the size of its seismic waves. This scale indicates a number to quantify the total seismic energy released by an earthquake. The Richter magnitude scale is a base-10 logarithmic scale, thereby a difference of one (1) point in the scale of magnitude corresponds to a 10-fold increase in amplitude. For example, based on the Richter scale, a magnitude-8 earthquake is 100 times greater than a magnitude-6 and 1000 times greater in amplitude than a magnitude-5.
