Scenario 2 You are concerned about the rate of death in catfish your aquaculture operation in tanks that have a high amount of algae growth. You collect some of the algae and send it to the university to have it identified. You find that it is a blue-green alga called Anabaena. Anabaena is known to be toxic to fish. You design an experiment to test how much of the algae the fish can stand before they die. You obtain 6 large aquariums (all the same size) and fill them with water taken from a healthy catfish pond at your operation. You put each aquarium on the same bench in the laboratory, where the light and temperature values are identical. You let the water stand for one day before starting the experiment. In aquarium 1, you add 2 grams of algae and no fish. In aquarium 2, you add 20 small catfish and no algae. Aquarium 3 gets 20 catfish and 2 grams of algae, #4 gets 20 catfish and 4 grams of algae, #5 gets 20 catfish and 8 grams of algae, and aquarium #6 gets 20 catfish and 16 grams of algae. The aeration rate of each aquarium is identical. You make two observations at the same time each day for two weeks. You keep track of the numbers of fish in each tank that die.

Turtle hatchling survivorship rate is low in many turtle species due to predation. amanda researched the predatory rate on a species of turtle eggs in the red river. the eggs were harvested from trapped turtles and the egg's cloaca film (reproductive discharge) was either washed off or left on once gathered. research suggests that predators use the female's cloaca scent to locate the eggs. the eggs were only handled when wearing gloves and then reburied along islands where the turtles were trapped. the nests were monitored by cameras and manually on foot and data on nest predation were recorded. a. based on the experimental design, what is the dependent variable? b. based on the experimental design, what is the independent variable? c. based on the experimental design, what is the control?

Aresearcher designed an investigation to test what effect eating different types of food would have on blood insulin levels. she selected 10 male subjects who were all 25 years of age and in good health. the experiment took place over 3 days. at 8: 00 a. m. on each day, the subjects ate a meal consisting of only 1 type of food. they had their blood insulin levels measured after consuming the meal. on day 1 they ate a high fat diet, on day 2 they ate a high protein diet, and on day 3 they ate a high sugar diel what is the independent variable in this experiment? a the age of the subjects b the blood insulin level c the type of food consumed d the time of day the meal was consumed
