You are conducting an experiment to determine if increased ultraviolet radiation from the decrease in
the ozone layer is killing off frog tadpoles. after examining all of the data available in the library, you
decide to go with a hypothesis that increased ultraviolet radiation from the sun is killing off the tadpoles.
you design an experiment with a control and an experimental group. group 1 involves 100 tadpoles in a
five gallon container of water, which is covered by glass (knowing that the glass will filter out the
ultraviolet radiation). group 2 will be set up exactly like group 1, except that instead of being covered
with glass, it is covered with an acrylic plexiglass, which will not filter out the u. v. radiation. you then
place the groups outside for a period of a month, and observe the results.

results
group 1 group 2
number of tadpoles 100 100
started with
number finished 96 96
using this information, answer the following questions.
a. what is the experimental variable and what is the dependant variable?
b. does the information from this experiment support the hypothesis?
c. if no, then what might be causing the decrease in frog populations?
d. which is the control group, and which is the experimental group?
e. what is the difference between the two groups? should they be
different in any other way?

Dominance the dominant allele doesn’t fully mask or hide the recessive. for example, a red carnation with a white carnation will produce a carnation. one gene one trait. well most of the time than one gene controls a trait. we are all different but genetically speaking we are % similar with regards to genetic makeup.

Bisphenol a (often called bpa) is a chemical found in products that people use every day, from water bottles to food containers to children's toys. unfortunately, bpa leaches out of its many products and makes its way into our bodies. what are the health effects of bpa exposure? ongoing research is finding that elevated exposure to bpa can affect a wide variety of developmental and physiological processes, but one of the first studies of bpa's health effects came about because of a simple mistake in the lab. at a laboratory at case western reserve university in 1998, geneticist patricia hunt was making a routine check of her female lab mice. as she extracted and examined developing eggs from the ovaries, she began to wonder what had gone wrong. she noticed that many of the eggs showed problems with their chromosomes, and some had irregular amounts of genetic material, which can lead to miscarriages and birth defects in mammals. she learned that a lab assistant had mistakenly washed the plastic mouse cages and water bottles with a harsh soap, releasing bpa from the plastic. knowing that bpa is an endocrine disruptor, a chemical that can enter organisms and mimic hormones, hunt set out to discover whether it had adversely affected her mice.

Sally and sue were investigating the topic of friction in science. they used a small car and a ramp as seen in the picture to test what they were learning. they knew that they slipped easily on waxed floors but not on carpet, so they decided to change the material on the surface of the ramp to see what happened. they planned to use glass, carpet, aluminum foil, and sandpaper and run the car down the ramp over each surface. what would be the best research question to guide the girls' experiment? a) does the amount of surface area affect the friction on the moving car? b) will the car travel fastest on the glass surface? c) how does the angle of the ramp affect the speed of the car? d)do rougher surfaces tend to create more friction than smooth surfaces?
