Answer: The correct option is heterogeneous mixture whose components are attracted differently to a magnet.
Explanation: There are two types of mixtures:
1) Homogeneous mixtures: In these mixtures, the particles are uniformly distributed throughout the mixture. These particles cannot be separated.
2) Heterogeneous Mixtures: These are the mixtures where the particles are visible separated and are not-uniformly distributed. These particles can be separated easily.
If magnet is used to separate the components of a mixture, the heterogeneous mixtures will only get separated.
To separate the components by a magnet, the components of a mixture should attract the magnet differently. One component should attract the magnet and another should not. Hence, they can be easily separated.
The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
One tank of goldfish is feed the normal amount which is once a day, a second tank is fed twice a day, and a third tank is fed four times a day during a 6 week study. The fishes' body fat is recorded daily.
Independent Variable-
Dependent Variable-
Constants
Control Group-
Answer:
A) The amount of food the gold fish receives
B) Body fat of the gold fish
C) -Type of fish used in the study (gold fish)
Time period within which the fishes were fed (Six week period)
Shape and size of tank
D) group of gold fish fed the normal amount
Explanation:
The purpose of the study is to determined the impact of amount of feed on the body fat of gold fish. Hence, the amount of feed is the independent variable while the body fat of the feed is the dependent variable.
The control group receives the normal amount of feed (once a day). The fishes are all gold fish, fed within a six week period. All the tanks were of the same shape and size. These are the constants in the study.
