Answer:

D) Earth's shadow on the moon shows it is spherical.

Explanation:

According to ancient astronomers, Earth was flat. But it was eventually proved wrong.

1. Had Earth been flat, ship in the sea could be seen for a far distance but it is not so.

2. During the lunar eclipse, the shadow of the Earth falling on moon would have been flat or would have sharp edges. But, the shadow was found to be round in shape. A spherical object casts a round shadow.

Thus, option D is correct.

What will happen when water and pebbles and pour it on the other cup?
Anika [276]

The water level in the bucket would drop.

This is because the pebbles have a greater density than water - they displace more water (when floating in a cup), than their volume. Thus the water displaced by the cup of floating pebbles has to be more than the volume of pebbles in the cup.

1. Imagine that the class had 25% of students with free earlobes and 75% with attached earlobes. What would this suggest about t
Yanka [14]

Answer:

People with free earlobes carry one or two dominant alleles which means that the free earlobe is a dominant trait over attached earlobes that carries two recessive alleles. The recessive allele is represented by f and the dominant allele is represented by F.

It is given that in a class 25% of students in the class had free earlobes which means either 25% of total alleles are FF or Ff and the rest 75% have ff. It suggests that recessive alleles have more frequency than dominant alleles.
