What adaptation of a cactus protects it from predators? a round cactus with many spines Broad leaves Sharp spines Thick stems Ye
Alex_Xolod [135]

A round cactus with many spines is the adaptation of a cactus that protects it from predators.

A cactus, unlike other plants, has unique adaptations in its roots, leaves, and stems that allow it to flourish in hot and dry surroundings.

The one adaptation that protects the cactus from predators is spines.

A cactus does not have any parts that resemble leaves if you could look at one closely.

Instead, the leaves are transformed into spines, which protrude from the plant's tiny bumps known as areoles.

Herbivores that live in the desert may be enticed to eat the cactus. The spines prevent these predators by modifying leaves into spines.

Other than protection, Spines perform many functions like

1) Since evaporation is a problem in a desert since water is scarce, the spines prevent excessive evaporation.

2)  The spines also impede airflow and prevent evaporation by trapping air.

3) <u>Collecting dew</u> from the early-morning fog is another crucial job that the spines do.

The gathered dew turned into liquid water and ran down to the earth below. The plant then absorbs this water.

Hence, the adaptation of a cactus that protects it from predators is round cactus with many spines.

You want to examine the hairy details of your favorite pet caterpillar, using a lens of focal length 8.9 cm 8.9 cm that you just
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

The angular magnification is M = 2.808

Explanation:

From the question we are told

           The focal length is  f = 8.9cm

          The near point is n_p = 25.0cm

The angular magnification is mathematically represented as

                          M = \frac{n_p}{f}

Substituting values

                        M = \frac{25}{8.9}

                           = 2.808

An egg is thrown nearly vertically upward from a point near the cornice of a tall building. It just misses the cornice on the wa
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

A) 17.7 m/s

B) 15.98 m

C) Zero

E) 9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

given information

distance, h = - 34 m

time, t = 5 s

A) What is the initial speed of the egg?

h - h₀ = v₀t - \frac{1}{2} gt², h₀ = 0

- 34 = v₀ 5 - \frac{1}{2} 9.8 5²

- 34 = 5 v₀ - 122.5

v₀ = 122.5 - 34/5

    = 17.7 m/s

B) How high does it rise above its starting point?

v² = v₀² - 2gh

v = 0 (highest point)

2gh = v₀²

h = v₀²/2g

  = 17.7²/2 (9.8)

  = 15.98 m

C) What is the magnitude of its velocity at the highest point?

v = 0 (at highest point)

E) What are the magnitude and direction of its acceleration at the highest point?

g= 9.8 m/s², since the egg is moved vertically, the acceleration is the same as the gravitational acceleration.
