Marble experiment Height of Marble from Ground (meters) Potential Energy of Marble (Joules) Kinetic Energy of Marble (Joules) Total Energy of Marble (Joules) Trial 1 1 1 4 5 Trial 2 2 4 1 5 Which of these is the outcome (dependent variable) in this experiment? Mass of marble Force of gravity Potential energy of marble Height of marble from ground

Based on the observation that only male crickets produce a song, you hypothesize that a male's song is a form of communication to potential mates. you set up a simple experiment to test this hypothesis. in the laboratory, you place a male snowy tree cricket in enclosure a, which is adjacent to enclosureb. in enclosure b, you place other insects, one at a time, and observe their responses to the male's song. the enclosures are designed so that the two insects being tested cannot see or smell each other, but sound is transmitted from enclosure a to enclosureb.

Which of the following is likely not involved in this example of ecological succession? a) the rotting remains of plants add to the fertility of the soil. b)the soil becomes so fertile that eel grass is replaced by other plant species. c) the roots from plants stabilize the sediment, keeping it in place. d) the concentration of salt becomes so high that all plant life is destroyed.
