Answer: An independent variable, sometimes called an experimental or predictor variable, is a variable that is being manipulated in an experiment in order to observe the effect on a dependent variable, sometimes called an outcome variable.

Explanation: Example: What is a good outcome variable for deciding whether cancer treatment in a country has been improving?

A first thought might be "number of deaths in the country from cancer in one year." But number of deaths might increase simply because the population is increasing. Or it might go down if cancer incidence is decreasing.  "Percent of the population that dies of cancer in one year" would take care of the first problem, but not the second.

This example makes the point that a rate is often a better measure than a count.

If this is just based off the independent variable it would be the outcome of the manipulation what happens to your dependent variable you give one plant fertilizer the other one none which plant grows better is the outcome variable

Hemophilia is an X-linked recessive disorder (Xh) that is passed through generations and can be traced by using a pedigree.
yarga [219]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. does not have hemophilia

Explanation:

In the given pedigree John has an XH chromosome, which means that he has the dominant chromosome. As males have one X, they can either be affected or unaffected. So, in this case John could not be carrier. Also, the Dominant chromosome is fully functional and does not show the characters of the disease, so, John would be free of hemophilia.

how many units of energy would there need to be to end up with 1000 units in the second? in the third? in the fourth?
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

10000 units in the second

100000 units in the third

1000000 units in the fourth

Explanation:

According to the pyramid of energy, which describes how energy flows from one trophic level to another, only about 10% of the available energy is transferred to the organism in the next trophic level as a lot of energy (about 90%) is lost as heat.

In this question, in order to have 1000inits of energy in

- Second trophic level = 1000 = 10/100 × x

10x = 100000

x = 10000units of energy

- for third trophic level,

100 × 1000

= 100000 units of energy

- for fourth trophic level;

1000 × 1000

= 1,000,000 units of energy.

Which statement describes an effect of natural
Semenov [28]
The statement which correctly describes natural selection is (1) it favors the survival of certain members of the species and results in a change in the proportion of individuals with highly <span>adaptive traits.

Natural selection, by definition talks about the successful passing down of genes from older generations to younger generations. These then are better adapted to their environment. This is exactly what the first answer is about. </span>
