Answer:

Option B, Recycled materials are often more expensive but they save recourses such as trees or minerals

Explanation:

Use of recycled product is useful in long run because the overall life cycle cost of the product starting from the stage of production to its decomposition/recycling again.

However, in case of non recyclable product the initial cost is low but the life cycle cost of product is high

Also recyclable materials save the natural resources as every time no new resources have to be converted into usable forms. The same old material can be recycled and used again and again

Thus, option B is correct

In science fiction stories, plants that live on planets far from the sun are often described as having black foliage, while thos

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The black foliage of the plants that live on planets far from the sun is an adaptive feature to maximize the heat from the sun for their metabolic activities. A certain level of temperature is usually required for optimal metabolic activities and the distance away from the sun means that heat could be a limiting factor. A black color, however, is able to absorb all the available heat in the surrounding. Hence, the black leaf color serves to maximize the heat from the sun for the benefits of the plant.

The shiny reflective foliage of the plants that live on the planets close to the sun can also be viewed as an adaptive feature to minimize the effects of the proximity of the sun. Too much sunlight will cause the tissues of the leaf to heat up beyond the optimal temperature requirement for metabolic activities. A shiny reflective color will reflect more of the rays of light from the sun than it absorbs. Thus, the foliage is prevented from overheating.
