- A student investigated the effect of plant growth substances (IAA and GA) on the elongation of pea stems, the students marked a 10mm length of stem on each of four plants and applied growth substances to the stem.

You want to investigate the role that these variables play in plant growth. You decide to test the substrate and see if changing substrate mixes will affect plant growth. Match the following experimental components with their descriptions. Experimental Components: ( Experimental Variable, Dependent Variable, Control Condition, Independent Variabe, A Confounding Variable That Must Be Held Constant) 1. type of substrate used: 2. growth resulting from substrate type 3. amount of water needed in all plants 4. substrate that is changed during the experiment 5. substrate that is not changed during the experimentarrow_forwardCompare and contrast semelparity and iteroparity. How does this differ from determinant and indeterminate growth?arrow_forward
- A poultry farmer is curious about the effectiveness of two types of exogenous enzymes, namely papain and bromelain, to be used as an additive in poultry feed. The farmer is farming chickens and ducks. It is the first attempt for the farmer to evaluate the potential effect of these two exogenous enzymes on the growth performance of the poultry he farmed. Create a research framework to aid the farmer with experimental design and statistical analysis.

- You are responsible for landscaping a very large urban park. You choose a popular flowering garden plant, the hydrangea, to plant throughout the park. The nursery you purchased the plants from said that the flowers should be pink. After a few months, though, you find—to your surprise—that the plants throughout the park display a variety of flower colors ranging from purple and blue, to pink and white, and finally, to all shades in between. After a suggestion from a friend, you test the soil where each plant was planted, and you determine that the color of the flowers seems to correlate with the acidity of the soil in which the plant was placed. Choose the answer that best fits the blank. The parentheses after the blanks are the choices. Since the flowers have shown such a broad range of colors, with no clear distinction between one color type and the next, this is an example of _________ (continuous variation, codominance, pleiotropy).
