Students in ms. fullhart’s class were designing an experiment to test whether the amount of water given to a plant affects the growth in terms of height of the plant. both plants were given the same amount of plant food, and exposure to sunlight. the students decided to use potato plants to conduct their tests. the plants were all the same height when they started the test. the plants were divided into 4 groups of 3 plants each. group 1 plants were given no water, group 2 plants were given 10 ml of water each day, group 3 plants were given 50 ml of water each day, and group 4 plants were given 100 ml of water each day. what are the controls variables (constants)?

Drag each label to the correct location on the image. each label can be used more than once. a scientist introduced mutations in a gene sequence isolated from bacteria. study the sequence, and identify the steps where the mutations may affect the formation of proteins. in the sequence, black letters stand for protein coding regions and red letters stand for noncoding regions. protein will not be changed. protein may be changed. attcgtgttc atcgtgttc atcgtattc attcgtattc

Rease is an enzyme used by plants to break down urea (a nitrogen-containing compound) into carbon dioxide and ammonia. urease urea > > > carbon dioxide and ammonia ammonia is broken down by plants into a nitrogen source plants need to grow. thus, plants could not use urea as a nitrogen source unless it was first converted to ammonia. in soybean plants there are two different kinds of urease, one produced in the seeds and the other produced in the leaves of the plant. three types of soybean plants were used in a set of experiments: normal soybeans and two mutant strains, one lacking the urease in the seeds only (strain 1) and one lacking urease in the leaves only (strain 2). experiment 1 separate areas in a field were planted with normal, strain 1, and strain 2 soybeans. all types of soybeans appeared to grow, flower, and produce seeds equally well. there were no externally detectable differences among the strains. experiment 2 small pieces of plant leaves of equal weight were obtained from each type of soybean plant and separately placed on media in culture dishes. tissue growing in this way will become an unorganized clump of cells referred to as callus. to provide a controlled nitrogen source, half the tissue samples of each type were placed on media containing urea, and the other half of the samples were placed on media containing ammonia. after 30 days, the weight gain for each of the callus samples was determined. results are shown in the table below.

The picture showed normal blood cells which are around and sickle cells which appear much longer people with sickle-cell suffer from the sickle cell anemia which is inherited diseaseit is caused by a change in gene responsible for production of hemo goblin this type of change is known as an
