Answer: Magnolia is a large genus of about 210 flowering plant species in the subfamily Magnolioideae of the family Magnoliaceae. It is named after French botanist Pierre Magnol. Magnolia is an ancient genus. Appearing before bees did, the flowers are theorized to have evolved to encourage pollination by beetles. To avoid damage from pollinating beetles, the carpels of Magnolia flowers are extremely tough. Fossilized specimens of M. acuminata have been found dating to 20 million years ago, and of plants identifiably belonging to the Magnoliaceae date to 95 million years ago. Another aspect of Magnolia considered to represent an ancestral state is that the flower bud is enclosed in a bract rather than in sepals; the perianth parts are undifferentiated and called tepals rather than distinct sepals and petals. Magnolia shares the tepal characteristic with several other flowering plants near the base of the flowering plant lineage such as Amborella and Nymphaea.

B: an atom
Explanation:
An atom is the smallest substance that can exist in isolation.
Hence, if a piece of copper is continually divided, eventually the smallest particle you would get in an atom.

Answer:
The correct answer would be - 120/88 or 112/80
Explanation:
Pulse pressure or PP is the difference between the top or higher number (systolic) and the bottom number (diastolic) blood pressure. Pulse pressure can find out by the systolic minus the diastolic of Blood pressure.
For example, if an individual's resting BP is 120/80 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), the normal PP is 40 which is considered a healthy pulse pressure. So, as per the normal BP 120/80, if the pp was 32 than the bp would be 120/88 or 112/80.
