Homer notices that his shower is covered in a strange green slime. His friend Barney tells him that coconut juice will get rid of the green slime. Homer decides to check this this out by spraying half of the shower with coconut juice. He sprays the other half of the shower with water. After 3 days of "treatment" there is no change in the appearance of the green slime on either side of the shower. What is the independent variable? The half of the shower not sprayed with coconut juice. The application of coconut juice. The number of showers Homer takes during the 3 days. Time The half of the shower sprayed with coconut juice. The amount of green slime before "treatment".

A mutation occurs in a single bacterium that causes it to produce a new enzyme. This enzyme helps the bacterium process nutrients more efficiently, increasing the bacterium's odds of survival. Every 30 minutes, the bacteria in the colony divide, passing their genes on to their offspring. Some bacteria survive, while others do not. Because resources are limited, the colony has a steady population of 114 bacteria. The bacterial colony is shown below at three different time intervals. The picture would be here: Assume that the survival trend shown in the diagram continues. At 3.0 hours, the mutant bacteria will make up _____ percent of the entire colony.
In a series of infection experiments, a researcher discovers that the ID50 value for the infectious bacterium Parasiticum mucoides is 100, and that the ID50 for another infectious bacterium, Donoteatum thisbacterium, is 15,000. Given these data, a person exposed to 1,000 bacteria of each type would be more likely to be infected by which bacterium? Group of answer choices There is no way to know given the information provided Both infections are equally likely Parasiticum mucoides Donoteatum thisbacterium

There is a report of a new disease affecting approximately 30% of the persons living in a small rural area of Ontario. Affected individuals have a lack of energy and demonstrate a progressive loss of muscle function. Although we have no information yet, we believe the disease is caused by an infectious agent. Consequently, to limit the spread of this disease, immediate intervention is critical. Blood and muscle tissue samples from unaffected and affected individuals are waiting for you. Microscopy and X-ray crystallography facilities are being readied for your arrival. In order to gain information as quickly as possible, please develop a solid research plan before beginning your investigations. Some possible questions about this new disease could be: Is there evidence of disease at the cellular level? Is the disease caused by an infectious agent? What is the infectious agent? Does the infectious agent attack muscle tissue? How might the infectious agent cause the disease? Is there a…

On the graph that relates absorbance to flavin concentration, draw a horizontal line that starts at the point on the y-axis that corresponds to the absorbance of your unknown sample and ends at the curve you drew through your data points . Next draw a vertical line that starts at the point where the horizontal line intersected the curve and ends at the x-axis. The point where this vertical line intersects the x-axis corresponds to the concentration of flavin in your unknown sample. What was the letter on the tube with your unknown sample? What is the concentration of the flavin in your unknown
A glucose monitor is an instrument that diabetics use to check their blood sugar. To use it, you insert a 'test strip' into the monitor and apply blood to it, then the blood is sucked into the instrument and the concentration of the sugars in the blood are measured. Like most instruments, it isn't 100% accurate 100% of the time. The informational pamphlet includued with the test strips say that a sample with a concentration of 7.2 mg/ml will give a reading with a standard deviation of 0.2 mg/ml. This means that when measured, a sample of blood with a 7.2 mg/ml glucose concentration will give a reading between mg/ml % of the time. mg/ml and
Thirty corn seedlings of equal size were randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups. At the beginning of the experiment, the plants in group I were dried and the mass was determined. The plants in group Il were maintained in light for a week. The plants in group III were maintained in the dark for a week. All conditions, other than light, were the same for groups IlI and III. At the end of the week, the plants in groups Il and III were dried and the mass was determined. The experimental results are provided in the table. Initial Dry Mass of 10 Plants (g) Dry Mass of 10 Plants After One Week (g) Change in Dry Mass of 10 Plants Over One Week (g) Treatment Group Treatment Nohe 14.8 II Light 32.8 +18 III Dark 11.7 -3.1 (a) To explain the increase in mass of the light-grown plants, identify ONE inorganic source of new plant mass and connect it to the cellular process underlying the increase in mass.
