Astudent does an experiment for a science fair to study whether temperature affects the timing of a cricket’s chirps. the student keeps a cricket in an enclosed box that is heated to different temperatures each day for twelve days. the student records the cricket’s chirps by using a sound-activated microphone so the timing of the chirps can be measured. which is the dependent variable in this experiment?

Scientists studied reproduction in the new zealand mud snail to answer the question, “are there benefits to reproducing sexually or asexually? ” which of these hypotheses would least likely aid the scientists as they worked to answer the question? sexual reproduction is advantageous over asexual reproduction because it reduces the rate of mutation accumulation. asexual reproduction is advantageous over sexual reproduction because it allows the snails to produce more offspring. sexual reproduction is advantageous over asexual reproduction because it allows for snails to have increased genetic variation. asexual reproduction is advantageous over sexual reproduction because it decreases the snails’ need for social
