The answer is 'sensory adaptation'. This happens when your sensory system senses a constant stimulus. After a short while, your sensory system will respond less, and then won't respond at all. This is to allow adaption to your environment. For example, if you live above a subway system, you will eventually become used to the sound of underground trains and vibration, and eventually you won't notice it at all..

Answer:

Methane is a chemical compound with the chemical formula CH4, symbolizing one atom of carbon and four atoms of hydrogen. It is a group 14 hydride and the simplest alkaline, and is the main constituent of natural gas. The relative abundance of methane on Earth makes it an economically attractive fuel, although capturing and storing it poses technical challenges due to its gaseous state under normal conditions for temperature and pressure. Methane naturally occurs both below ground and under the seafloor, and is formed by both geological and biological processes. In nature, methane is produced by the anaerobic bacterial decomposition of vegetable matter under water. Methane is important because it can be captured from landfills, can be burned to produce electricity, heat buildings, or power garbage trucks. Methane can also be captured from farm digesters, which are big tanks that contain manure and other waste from barns that house livestock such as cows and pigs. In fact, Jordan Dairy Farms in Massachusetts uses a biodigester to turn cow manure into methane gas, which is used for fuel or turned into electricity.

OPTIONS:

a. When there are just two other people at the party.

b. When everyone is wearing a nametag.

c. When there are more than 50 people attending the same party.

d. When the need for help from the person who is having a heart attack is very clear

Answer:

c. When there are more than 50 people attending the same party.

Explanation:

Bystander effect is a term used in social psychology to describe the tendency of an individual to intervene in the event of an emergency to offer help to the person needing it, when others are present at the scene of the emergency.

In the case of an emergency just like the scenario stated in the question, where someone develops a heart attack at a dance party, if the party has more people, the slimmer the chance of the person getting help from any of the 50 people at the party, as the presence of others would tend to discourage the any individual from attempting to help the victim having the heart attack.

The situation that would more likely show the bystander intervention effect is <em>"c. When there are more than 50 people attending the same party."</em>

Which of the following describes how the winter season affects organisms in the tundra biome?
alukav5142 [94]

The correct answer is D. Animals not adapted to cold migrate to warmer regions, because suppose that the cold temperatures kill most of the plants, so if they can die why they select that place to live? The option B is not logical because this require long time to evolve this characteristic and the option C has more logic but it still not enough, because if the temperatures are colder more animals can die. I hope this help.
