Answer:
Many plants have thorns on their stems or leaves. What is the MOST likely explanation for the evolution of thorns?
A) Thorns help plants produce more food from photosynthesis.
B) Thorns are an example of a mutation that arises in the genetic code of plants.
C) Thorns help plants to conserve resources like water and soil nutrients that may be used by other organisms.
D) Thorns are an adaptation that some plants have evolved in order to discourage herbivores from eating the plant.

Explanation:
Answer:
C= 0.532M
Explanation:
The equation of reaction is
H2SO4 + 2KOH = K2SO4+ H2O
nA= 1, nB= 2, CA= ?, VA= 48.9ml, CB= 1.5M, VB= 34.7ml
Applying
CAVA/CBVB = nA/nB
(CA× 48.9)/(1.5×34.7)= 1/2
Simplify
CA= 0.532M
Molality= mol/ Kg
if we assume that we have 1 kg of water, we have 3.19 moles of solute.
the formula for mole fraction --> mole fraction= mol of solule/ mol of solution
1) if we have 1 kg of water which is same as 1000 grams of water.
2) we need to convert grams to moles using the molar mass of water
molar mass of H₂O= (2 x 1.01) + 16.0 = 18.02 g/mol
1000 g (1 mol/ 18.02 grams)= 55.5 mol
3) mole of solution= 55.5 moles + 3.19 moles= 58.7 moles of solution
4) mole fraction= 3.19 / 58.7= 0.0543
