Hello!
An initial observation is the first thing a scientist notices about a topic before conducting the experiment. We can see that it is the first thing in the paragraph in this case, that dandelions grow as unwanted weeds in many lawns.
The hypothesis is the guess about the result of an experiment made before the experiment is conducted. In this case, it is that a weed killer (Killimal) would kill all the dandelions while leaving the grass healthy. This is not specifically a guess made by the scientist, but more like a prediction he wanted to verify.
An independent variable is the variable being changed in the experiment by the scientist. Here, it is whether Killimal was sprayed or not.
The dependent variable is the variable being measured, and the one being affected by the independent variable. His observation would be whether the grass and dandelions would be killed. This is because the weed killer would be directly affecting whether or not these would be killed.
The control variables are ones which are kept the same in the experiment as to not interfere with the final results. In this case, it would be the density of dandelions, the amount of sunlight, and the amount the plants were watered. These were kept exactly the same, as they could've affected the dependent variable if changed.
The control group was the one that is not impacted by the independent variable. The control group makes sure that it actually is the independent variable affecting the dependent, and it isn't some outside unknown variable. This would be the plot without the Killimal.
The experimental group is the one being experimented on from the independent variable. This would be the plot with the Killimal.
Hope this helps!

Answer: A geneticist studies a series of families in which both parents are normal and at least one child has albinism. The geneticist reasons that both parents in these families must be heterozygotes and that albinism should appear in of the children of these families. To his surprise, the geneticist finds that the frequency of albinism among me children of these families is considerably greater "Than . Can you think of an explanation for the Thigher-than-expected frequency of albinism among These families?
Explanation:
Two genes, BRCA1, located on chromosome 17q21 (5,6), and BRCA2, located on 13q12-13 (7–9), have been shown to predispose to familial breast cancer.
