An experiment in science class was conducted to determine the time it takes different types of fruit to spoil in darkness. each piece of fruit; an orange, an apple, a pear, and a banana were placed in different dark rooms at different temperatures. the table shows the observations collected by the students after five days. which best describes an error the students made in the experiment? a) five days is too long b) too many types of fruit c) only done in dark rooms d) different room temperatures

Answer is: D) different room temperatures.

If students want only to measure influence of darkness to fruit, they should not change temperature, because now they will have two different impacts on on fruit spoilness.

The two main variables in an experiment are the independent (in this example should only be darkness) and dependent (spoilness of the fruit) variable.

Dependent variable is the variable being tested and measured in a scientific experiment.

Dependent variables depend on the values of independent variables. The dependent variables represent the output or outcome whose variation is being studied.

a rain shadow is a dry region of land on the side that is protected against the prevailing winds of a mountain range. the prevailing winds are the winds that occur most of the time in a particular place of the earth

prevailing winds carry air toward the mountain range. as the air rises up over a mountain range, the air cools, water vapor condenses, and clouds form. on this side of the mountains, called the windward side, precipitation falls in the form of  rain  or snow. this dry air produces a  rain shadow.

you did not give any options thus this is the best answer i can give to you with this little information you have given

> they are both natural and not man made

> they can be tracked and predicted by the right tools
