You think adding peanuts to soil makes plants grow taller. What would be the dependent variable?

The group that gets peanuts in the soil

The plants are grown in the same size container.

An ameba is a single-celled organism. It uses its cell membrane to obtain food from its environment, digests the food with the help of organelles called lysosomes, and uses other organelles to process the digested food. From this, we can best infer that

structures in amebas have functions similar to organs in multicellular organisms

all single-celled organisms have lysosomes to digest food

amebas are capable of digesting any type of food molecule

single-celled organisms are as complex as multicellular organisms

The process of transferring energy during respiration occurs in a series of steps. This prevents too much heat from being released at one time. Maintaining an appropriate temperature is beneficial to an organism because

enzymes need a proper range of temperatures to catalyze vital reactions

cellular waste products can only be excreted in cooler temperatures

hormones can only produce antibodies if temperatures are not excessive

nutrients diffuse faster into cells when temperatures are lower

Fruits and vegetables exposed to air begin to brown because of a chemical reaction in their cells. This may result in these foods being thrown out. Some people have found that adding lemon juice (citric acid) to apple slices keeps them from turning brown. The prevention of browning is likely the result of

slowing the rate of enzyme action

increasing the concentration of enzymes

The role of antibodies in the human body is to

recognize foreign antigens and mark them for destruction

stimulate pathogen reproduction to produce additional white blood cells

increase the production of guard cells to defend against pathogens

promote the production of antigens to stimulate an immune response

The first successful transplant of insulin producing cells from a living donor pancreas was completed in April 2000 in Japan. This enabled the body of the recipient to

maintain blood sugar levels throughout the day

regulate fat concentration by a feedback mechanism

provide protection against an infectious disease

slow down the heart rate after a period of activity ends

A 6-year-old child ate a peanut butter sandwich at snack time in school. Five minutes later, her throat became swollen and she collapsed. This allergic reaction occurred because her body

recognized an antigen in peanut butter and produced an immune response

recognized an antigen in peanut butter and produced antibiotics against it

digested the white blood cells that can recognize an antigen in peanut butter

did not recognize an antigen in peanut butter and could not produce antibodies against it

Cell membranes are said to be selectively permeable. Which statement best explains what selectively permeable means?

The cell membrane lets certain substances enter the cell and keeps certain substances out of the cell.

The cell membrane prevents any harmful substance from entering the cell.

The cell membrane allows only large molecules to diffuse into the cell.

The cell membrane has pores that let only water and glucose into the cell and carbon dioxide out.

are the building blocks from which proteins are made.

help transport fats in the body.
