Answer:
a) 0.56moles
b) 2.78moles
Explanation:
The number of moles can be calculated by using the formula;
Mole (n) = Mass (M) ÷ Molar mass (MM)
For a glucose molecule, with chemical formula: C6H12O6
Where atomic mass of C= 12, H=1, O= 16
Molar mass of C6H12O6= 12(6) + 1(12) + 16(6)
= 72 + 12 + 96
= 180g/mol
a) In 100g of glucose;
Mole = 100/180
Mole = 0.56moles
b) In 500g of glucose
Mole = 500/180
Mole = 2.78moles
The goal of an experimental investigation is to determine how changes in an independent variable affects another variable, which is called the dependent variable.
Remember: When designing an Experimental Investigation it is important that you only have one independent variable and one dependent variable. All other variables must be controlled, meaning they must stay the same.
FYI: Controlled variables are not the same as a Control for your Investigation. The following will explain this.
Start Experiment Design:
I want you to understand some of the thought processes for designing an experiment that meets Science Fair Project requirements.
1. You need to have a purpose for your investigation. At this point you may not know exactly what you want to do but let’s assume you want to work with plants. I’d search the web and find different project ideas about plants.
You will find ideas on this page?
Let’s assume you decide to investigate how light effects plant growth. At this point you need to write a basic purpose. I point out that this is might only be a BASIC Purpose, meaning you may need to improve it.
Basic Purpose of Investigation: How light effects plant growth.
I’ll come back to the purpose, but next you need to write your science fair question.
2. The question for an experimental investigation must identify both the independent variable and the dependent variable. Your basic purpose identifies light as the independent variable and plant growth as the dependent variable.
Don’t Forget: The independent variable and the dependent variable for an experimental investigation must be measurable.
Measuring the Independent Variable
How does one measure light?
Light is very general. You need to be more specific about the independent variable. You will get the point after reading the following questions.
Do you want to measure how different types of light sources, such as sunlight, artificial light, or colored light effects plant growth? This is a good idea for a science project.
Do you want to measure how changes in the amount of one type of light effects plants growth?
This is another good idea for a science project.See ????? for more ideas for how light affects plant growth.
You may have other ideas about the light you want to use, but for this article, I will give examples for measuring the amount of one type of light.
The Independent Variable is the amount of light the plant received.
Ideas for how to change the amount of light.
1. Use sunlight which changes during the day as well as from one day to the next.
You can also use direct and indirect sunlight.
2. If you use artificial light you can decide when and for how long the plant will receive this light. You also have the option to control the wattage of light used–its color–type (fluorescent, UV, incandescent). Just use the same type of light for each test plant–see controlled var

Answer:
1.Ratón: se ubica en el segundo nivel trófico, es un consumidor primario que se alimenta de semillas
semillas (productores)---->ratón (consumidor primario)-->serpiente(consumidor secundario) --->zorro(consumidor terciario)
2.
- Hay 4 niveles tróficos.
- En el primer nivel se encuentran los productores.
- En el segundo nivel se encuentran los consumidores primarios, estos se alimentan de los productores.
- En el tercer nivel se encuentran los consumidores secundarios, los cuales se alimentan de los consumidores primarios
- En el cuarto nivel se encuentran los consumidores terciarios que se alimentan de los consumidores secundarios.
- Al consumir lo que se encuentra en el nivel anterior obtienen energía para subsistir y mantener el equilibrio del ecosistema.
- Los niveles tróficos son los lugares que ocupan un determinado grupo de seres vivos en relación a otros por la energía que tienen y que pasan al siguiente nivel. Se ve en la cadena alimentaria, donde la energía que se obtiene de los nutrientes del nivel anterior siempre es destinada a seres mas grandes en tamaño, es decir que están en el siguiente nivel trófico y necesitan mas energía.
Explanation:
El ratón es un animal herbívoro, es decir que se alimenta de plantas y hierbas, por ende se ubica en el segundo nivel trófico porque consume a los productores. Estos últimos reciben este nombre porque producen su propio alimento a diferencia del resto de los niveles en donde los seres vivos se alimentan de animales o insectos que estén en niveles inferiores.
La energía que obtiene el ratón al consumir a los productores se utiliza en el metabolismo y en las diferentes reacciones que hacen que se mantenga vivo hasta que este es consumido por otro animal transfiriendo la energía al siguiente nivel. Esta cadena sigue hasta llegar al consumidor terciario. En todos los niveles intervienen los descomponedores que degradan los restos de los seres vivos para obtener energía y nutrir la tierra, de esta forma comienzan nuevamente la cadena alimentaria.
