Answer:
Explanation:
Hello!
The scientist created an experimental strain that produces a modified RNA polymerase with a single amino acid substitution. This mutation is supposed to change the elongation rate of the mRNA during transcription.
The dependent or response variable, is the one the researchers are interested in, meaning, are the characteristics that the researcher will pay attention to and measure during the experiment.
In this example, the researcher is interested in testing the max elongation rate during transcription, which is the dependent variable of this experiment.
In the second part of the experiment, both strains of yeast, wilds, and experimental, where exposed to 40ug/mL solution of amanitin and recorded the maximum elongation rate of the RNA. This is naturally to test the effects of amanitin over the elongation rate of the mRNA in both strains.
The control group is a set of experimental units that are exposed to the same conditions as the experimental groups, with the exception that they receive no treatment (or they receive a "no effective" treatment often called a placebo). The purpose of a control group is to know the natural response of the experimental units to a treatment-free environment, this way when comparing both groups, the researcher will be able to observe the differences or changes due to the applied treatments.
In the second experiment, there are missing two control groups, one made of the wild strain and the other made of the experimental strain, exposed to the same conditions as the treated strains.
I hope this helps!
Answer: D.) It allows water to resist freezing and thawing cycles.
The ability of the water molecule to absorb and retain heat is called as heat capacity of water, because of this property the temperature of water remains the same for long, irrespective of the external environment. It allows water to resist freezing and thawing cycles because water molecules will resist change in it's temperature. This temperature regulation will prevent instant heating and cooling, hence, will provide suitable environment for the survival of marine organisms.
Answer:
Option C, Plant A
Explanation:
Control group within an experiment is the substance/organism or subject which shall enact as a base for comparison of impact of experiment created on the dependent variables.
Here, the impact of fertilizer is to be studied on plant. Thus, plant set up is dependent variable and amount of fertilizer is an independent variable. Out of all plants one plants is getting 0 amount of fertilizer hence this plant can be used for comparison with other plants which receives the fertilizers.
