A searcher applies different water with varying pH to 300 Zea Maz. The crops were watered with (pH3.0, pH 4.0, pH 5.0, pH 6.0, and a pH of 7.0). All other confounding variables were kept constant ( watering temperature, and sunlight). A the end of the growing season, the corn was weighed to determine which pH produces the largest corn harvest.
What is the independent and dependent variable?
Independent variable- ph of the water
Dependent variable- corn harvest
How does Denaturation affect Proteins?
Denaturation causes proteins to loose their shape rendering them useless
What is the Polysaccharide that is used in energy storage?
Glycogen
What is the job of DNA ?
Serves as a template for protein synthesis
