Incomplete question. The remaining part of the question read;

Words in the left column:

Yes
No
Observational
Manipulative

1. A physiologist incubates eggs in the lab at a range of temperatures to see what temperatures produce males and what temperatures produce females.

2. A biologist predicts that shade might influence ground temperature, and therefore turtle sex ratios. He records the sex ratio of turtle hatchlings in shaded and unshaded regions

3. An ecologist predicts turtles grow larger when no predators are around. She places turtles in an experimental pond system where half the ponds have predators and half the ponds have had the predators removed.

4. A climatologist predicts that concentration of CO2 in a city will be negatively correlated with the amount of wind in that city. He collects data and looks at the amount of CO2 in a city as a function of the wind speed in the city.

5. A sociologist conducts a survey in Hawaii to describe people's attitudes about global climate change.

6. A scientist determines the average wind speed, and variation in the amount of wind, in a number of locations to see which locations would be most suitable for wind turbines

Answer/Explanation:

1. Hypothesis-driven? Yes!

Observational or Manipulative? Observational.

We can make this conclusion here that the physiologists' research is hypothesis-driven since we are told he wanted to "see what temperatures produce males and what temperatures produce females." In other words, he wanted to know whether the temperature used in incubators can influence the sex of an egg by means of observation.

2. Hypothesis-driven? Yes!

Observational or Manipulative? Observation.

3. Hypothesis-driven? Yes!

Observational or Manipulative? Manipulative.

We can make the conclusion that is the ecologist used the manipulative method in her research since she decided to place the turtles in two different types of ponds; one where half the ponds have predators while in the other the pond the predators have been removed. In other words, she manipulated the independent variables.

4. Hypothesis-driven? Yes!

Observational or Manipulative? Observational.

Note, the use of the word, "predicts" in most instances underscores the tone of hypothesis-driven research, hence we can say Yes! And remember, we are told the researcher "collects data", meaning he is merely observing differences that occur naturally.

5. Hypothesis-driven? No!

Observational or Manipulative? Observational.

6. Hypothesis-driven? No!

Observational or Manipulative? Observational.

A species of moth has a 2 varieties of wing color: brown and white. As winter approaches, the trees where the moths live loose t

Morgarella [4.7K]

Assuming that this question makes reference to the survivability of the two moth variations, we can confirm that the brown-colored moth will be better adapted to survive in the winter months.

<h3>Why are the brown moths more likely to survive?</h3>

This has to do with their ability to better hide from predators. As described in the question, their primary predator are birds that hunt them while resting on the tree bark. This means that the white-colored moths will stand out against the dark tree bark and be easier prey for the birds. This will eventually lead to all the moths in the area being brown-colored through the process of natural selection.

Therefore, we can confirm that the brown-colored moth will be better adapted to survive in the winter months due to their ability to hide from predators.

Define the five systems of the biosphere be sure to include information to distinguish each system from the others

Hello!

By the most general biophysiological definition, the biosphere is the global ecologicalsystem integrating all living beings and their relationships, including their interaction with the elements of the lithosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere.

Most human cells range from 10 to 15 micrometers in diameter. What limits how large a cell can get

Mice21 [21]

The relationship between its volume and surface area limits how large a cell can get.

<h3>What is cell range?</h3>

The range of a cell is defined as the quantity of material that can be found within a cell with respect to the surface area.

The range of a cell is limited by the volume and the surface area which means that the wider the surface area the more volume the cell can contain.
