Biologists designed an experiment to test the effect of compost on the development of root crops. They tested several different crops, including carrots, potatoes, beets, and onions. They grew most of the plants in the greenhouse, but due to space issues, they had to grow some outdoors. They gave all the plants the same amount of compost. They obtained the compost from a local farmer and from the local hardware store. They ran out of the farmer’s compost, so some of the plants received that compost when the seeds were planted and other plants got hardware store compost after the plants had already started growing.

RESULTS: Some of the roots seemed really big. Other roots seemed normal or small.

CONCLUSION: They couldn’t tell what the effect of the compost was because the results were inconsistent.

What are five problems with this experimental design that could have caused inconsistent results?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

it is 56

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

one of the problems are that sum of the plants weren't getting the same kind of compost the second issue is that they couldn't fit all the plants into the greenhouse third issue issue was that some plants got compost when planted but what about the others

I got this answer from one of the WRONG answers. This was in the comments. So thanks to them!

Which of the following is not a subatomic particle?

Answers

Answer: C) Nucleus

The nucleus is not a subatomic particle, but rather made of the subatomic particles of protons and neutrons. An electron is also a subatomic particle, but it is not found in the nucleus. There are many other subatomic particles, but your teacher probably won't go over those terms until later.

What is the temperature of a gas if the container has a volume of 2,300 mL, with a pressure of 932 mmHg and 3.51 moles?

Answers

Answer:

The preceding temperature is equivalent to approximately 9.6 K => -263.5 °C

Explanation:

Given the provided problem, the formula may be substituted by the corresponding values:

Pressure (P)= 932 mmHg ==> 1.2 atm

Volume (V) = 2,300 mL ==> 2.31 L

Moles (n) = 3.51 moles ==> 3.51 mol

Proportional constant of ideal gas constant: (R) = 0.08206

Therefore, we can equate the following:

T= (PV)

     nR

T= (1.2 atm · 2.31 L)

   (3.51 mol · 0.08206)

T= 9.6 K ==> -263.5 °C

Thus, the cumulative temperature given the substituents/substance is equivalent to -263.5 °C.

lowing situations, suggest what fraction or multiple

of the meter might be the most appropriate mea-

surement.

a. the distance between Chicago and Saint Louis

b. the size of your bedroom

c. the dimensions of this textbook

d. the thickness of a hair

Answers

Answer:

A) Km

B) m

C) cm

D) mm

Explanation:

A) The distance between Chicago and Saint Louis is quite a distance and would be best presented in the largest multiple of the SI unit of length.

For example if the distance is 500000 m, it's a bit bogus to write, so we can simplify by writing in terms of 10^(-3) m which is in km.

Thus, we can write as 500000 × 10^(-3) km = 500 km

B) By standard measurement, the size of a bedroom is usually: 3.6 m × 3.6 m.

This not complex to write and can be kept as it is in metres.

C) The average dimension of a textbook is around 0.25 m by 0.2 m.

Let's get rid of the decimal by converting to terms of 10² m which is expressed as cm.

Thus, dimension is now: (0.25 × 10²) by (0.2 × 10²) = 25 cm by 20 cm

D) Average thickness of a hair in metres is 8 × 10^(-5) m.

Now this is a bit long. So we can express is in terms of 10^(3) m which is an expression denoted by millimeter (mm).

Thus, thickness is 8 × 10^(-5) × 10³ = 0.08 mm

What is atom?

The smallest unit of matter that may be split without producing electrically charged particles is the atom. It is also the smallest piece of substance with chemical element-like characteristics. As a result, the atom serves as the fundamental unit of chemistry.

Space makes up the majority of an atom. The remainder is made up of a cloud of electrons with negative charges around a positive-charged nucleus made up of protons and neutrons. Compared to electrons, that are the lightest positive ions in nature, the nucleus is tiny and dense. A particle has a nucleus that contains 10 protons and around the outside it has 8 electrons, the overall charge of the particle is +2.

Therefore, the correct option is option B.

N2O5 =
CO2 =

Answers

Answer:

CH4 - Methane

B2Si - Diboron monosilicide

N2O5 - Dinitrogen pentoxide

CO2 - Carbon dioxide

Explanation:

When it comes to naming covalent compounds, there are several rules.

The name is derived based on the formula. For example, N2O5. The first element is nitrogen. To the name of the element, you add the prefix that tells us how many of its atoms are in the compound. In this case, there are two atoms, which means that the prefix will be di- (dinitrogen). The second element is oxygen. You are supposed to take only the root of the second element's name and then add the prefix denoting the number of its atoms and the suffix -ide (pentoxide). This is how we'll get dinitrogen pentoxide.

The only exception is methane (CH4), which is an organic compound. Organic compounds are named using the IUPAC nomenclature.

Perform a DNA extraction from green peas at home or school lab, under adult supervision, by following the given procedure carefully.

Procedure for DNA extraction:

To half cup of split peas, add 1/8 teaspoon of salt and one cup of cold water.
Transfer this mixture in a blender and blend it on high speed for 15 seconds.
Filter the blended mixture, using a strainer, into a measuring container. Observe the amount of mixture you obtain after filtration. Add liquid detergent equal to 1/6 volume of the obtained pea mixture.
Mix by swirling. Allow the mixture to rest for about five to ten minutes.
Transfer this mixture to test tubes. Fill the tubes to about 1/3 of their volume.
Add a pinch of meat tenderizer to each of these tubes. Mix gently to avoid damaging the DNA.
Tilt the test tube, and pour alcohol (75% isopropyl alcohol or 95% ethanol) down the sides of the tube. Add alcohol to about 2/3 volume of the tube. You will obtain two layers. The layer at the top contains the DNA.

Now that you are done with the DNA extraction process, answer the following questions:

What purpose does blending the pea mixture serve?
Why do you need to add liquid detergent?
What role does the meat tenderizer play?
Why is alcohol added and why does the DNA get extracted in the alcohol layer?

Answers

Answer:

Blending is done to break open, or lyse, the cells.

DNA resides in the nucleus, which is enclosed by the nuclear membrane. The nucleus is further enclosed by the cell membrane. So, to get the DNA, we need to break open both the membranes. Cell membranes are made up of lipids and proteins. The detergent molecules to attach to the cell and nuclear membranes, causing them to break open.

Meat tenderizer contains the enzyme protease that helps cleave proteins. Even after breaking open the nucleus and cell membrane, the DNA is still protected by cell proteins. Meat tenderizer cleaves the proteins, leaving behind only the DNA molecule.

DNA is insoluble in alcohol and hence, when alcohol is added, it precipitates out the DNA.

Suppose someone claims they have invented a new automobile engine that can produce more energy than is found in the fuel used to run it. Apply scientific principles to evaluate the person's claim.

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

According to the second law of thermodynamics, the conversion of energy  from one form to another is never hundred percent efficient. Some energy is always lost as energy is transformed from one form to another.

When a fuel is used to run an automobile engine, chemical energy from the fuel is converted into to the mechanical energy of the automobile. This energy conversion can never be hundred percent efficient in accordance with the laws of thermodynamics. Some energy is always lost as heat.

Hence, the engine does not even efficiently convert all the chemical energy available in the fuel. Therefore, it is impossible to find an automobile engine that can produce more energy than the fuel used to run it.
