Dependent and Independent variables are regarded as variables in mathematical and statistical modeling and of course in some other aspects.

The independent variable is this case is the amount of salt.

  • In this kind of scenario, one can think of independent and dependent variables in terms of cause and effect.  
  • An independent variable is the variable we assume to be the cause, while a dependent variable is assumed as the effect.
  • Therefore, with this case, the amount of salt would cause a decrease in the number of plants.
  • While the effect of increasing the amount of salt would be seen in the number of plants.

Where is the majority of negative charge on the water molecule?
rusak2 [61]
 A water molecule (H2O) will have a slightly positive side, and a slightly negative side. The oxygen side of water is the one that is negative, while hydrogen side tends to be more positive. When a molecule has a half negative and half positive side like water does, it is called a polar molecule. :D

Which of the following statements about adaptive radiation is correct? View Available Hint(s) Which of the following statements
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Adaptive radiation occurs within a single lineage

Explanation:

Adaptive radiation generally occurs when an organism enters a new area and different traits affect its survival. An adaptive radiation is a burst of evolution, creating several new species out of a single parent species, which simply means that adaptive radiation occurs when a single lineage produces many descendant species. Adaptive radiation is considered to be a rapid process, where adaptation from a recent common ancestor takes place in a short period of time (with respect to geological time, of course).
