Turtle hatchling survivorship rate is low in many turtle species due to predation. amanda researched the predatory rate on a species of turtle eggs in the red river. the eggs were harvested from trapped turtles and the egg's cloaca film (reproductive discharge) was either washed off or left on once gathered. research suggests that predators use the female's cloaca scent to locate the eggs. the eggs were only handled when wearing gloves and then reburied along islands where the turtles were trapped. the nests were monitored by cameras and manually on foot and data on nest predation were recorded. a. based on the experimental design, what is the dependent variable? b. based on the experimental design, what is the independent variable? c. based on the experimental design, what is the control?

The fish shown above is a tarpon. it is a fast-swimming and powerful open-water fish. its closest relatives, oddly, are burrow-dwelling conger eels that stay on the bottom. both eels and tarpon developed from snake-like larvae that float in the plankton during the first stages of life. once they mature, tarpon and eels are not found near one another in the ocean. the tarpon and the eel illustrate all of the following except
