Answer:
The independent variable in the experiment is A. the jar covers.
Explanation:
The independent variable in an experiment represents the thing that the person conducting the experiment changes or alters. One group in the experiment had covers (this represents the experimental group) and the other group had no cover (this represents the control group which was not exposed to the independent variable). Since the only thing that Redi changed between the two groups was whether or not the jars were covered, this represents the independent variable.
The number of jars and the contents of the jars were constant in both experiments, and the number of maggots on the meat is the dependent variable (the result of changing the independent variable).
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Phytoplankton are essential for atmospheric and climate regulation.
Explanation:
Phytoplankton are autotrophs, they use solar energy, along with inorganic carbon and water to produce their own food source via photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, they also produce oxygen, integral for the planet's atmospheric composition.
At their large biomass, phytoplankton contribute to a majority of the oxygen used by consumers (most animals).
6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light → C6H12O6 + 6 O2
Carbon Dioxide + Water + Light Glucose + Oxygen
Along with fossil fuels, human agricultural practices have contributed large amounts of CO2 to the atmosphere, This causes global warming, a major environmental crisis- global warming also leads to landmass loss, biosphere disruption and reduces biodiversity in mass extinction events.
Phytoplankton carbon cycling produces organic matter which functions as carbon sinks in our oceans. Thus, as phytoplankton use large amounts of CO2, they help combat warming cycles, along with producing O2 in atmospheric and climate regulation.
Fire can be accidental or intentional, and it can cause erosion.
