Answer: Light Refraction

Explanation:

Light rays travel in straight lines. When they strike an opaque surface, the rays bounce, and light is reflected back to your eye so that you see an image. When light strikes a transparent object, some of the light passes through. If that light strikes the object straight on, it continues to travel in a straight line. If the light enters the transparent object at an angle, though, it changes direction, bending.This bending of light is called refraction. Refraction occurs because light entering an object slows down. When it enters at an angle, one side of the light ray enters before the other, slowing down first.Looking from above, an object under water appears larger than it does in air. It's not that the image the light gave our eyes is bigger. It's that the image is actually closer to our eyes, since the light is not passing straight down, but is instead bending relative to the water's surface. Light passing straight down would be perpendicular to the water's surface, like the vertical line on the letter T.

Because xylem and phloem are essentials as they are the veins of the leaves. They are bundled together in thin strands. They allow the movement of water and nutrients. 

The veins of leaves are finely branched to be in close contact with photosynthesizing cells as they need to store food.

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer: Male

Explanation:

The pelvis is narrow in males, the pubis arch is 90 degrees in angle. It is broad in case of females to support pregnancy and child birth. Also the pubis arch is more than 90 degrees in angle. An occipital protuberance is a region that connects the head to the neck and it is generally larger in males than in female. In males the forehead is sloping in the cranium whereas that in females it is vertical and flat.

Hence, the skeleton have the features that can be indicated towards the features of a male.
