A student wanted to test the effectiveness of a new type of drug that would partially block Ca2 channels on the sarcoplasmic ret

iculum. She had a population of 15 frogs and divided them into three groups: 5 frogs received 50mg of the drug, 5 frogs received 25mg of the drug and 5 frogs received a placebo. She isolated a muscle from each frog and measured how much force it exerted during a contraction. She also recorded the air temperature in laboratory because temperature could affect muscle proteins. What was her dependent variable

Answer:

This question is incomplete as it lacks options, the options are:

A. drug dose

B. type of drug

C. force of contraction

D. air temperature

The answer is C. Force of contraction

Explanation:

In an experiment, the DEPENDENT VARIABLE (effect) is the variable that responds to the changes made to the independent variable (cause). It is the variable that is measured as the independent variable is being manipulated in the experiment.

In this case, a student wanted to test the effectiveness of a new type of drug that would partially block Ca2 channels on the sarcoplasmic reticulum. She used a total of 15 frogs, which were divided into three groups and administered different doses of the drug (independent variable). However, the AMOUNT OF FORCE A MUSCLE EXERTED DURING CONTRACTION was measured. Hence, the dependent variable is the force of contraction of the muscle.

Which of these is happening when translation takes place
Sladkaya [172]
<span>tRNAs are bringing amino acids to the ribosomes. 

In translation the mRNA moves from the nucleus to the cytoplasm through the nuclear envelop,then the initiation factors bind ribosomes with the mRNA to form the initiation complex,then tRNAcarrying amino acids bind to the larg ribosomal subunit to make the peptide chain.

What is Teddy's organization trying to accomplish?
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The sensitization and awareness campaign by Teddy's organization was aimed to prevent greenhouse effects by preserving the integrity of the ozone layer in deflecting the dangerous ultraviolet radiation from the sun.

Explanation:

Products such as aerosols, refrigerators, and other substances that can release Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) had been banned due to their bye product of CFCs which had been studied to be harmful to the ecosystem, especially the stratosphere.

The released CFCs are volatile and escape faster due to their low relative density. Therefore, they tend to get into the upper atmosphere within a couple of minutes. When CFCs and Ultraviolet radiation reacts, it leads to the formation of mono oxides of chlorine and bromine. These fragments (Cl2O and Br2O) are capable of reducing the protective ozone shield into ordinary oxygen, which cannot prevent the penetration of harmful ultraviolet radiation into the earth, which cause mutation of DNA and destruction of protein content of the animals and plants on the earth, and finally to cancer and other genetic mutation problems.
