Answer:
1) Accommodation is the process of changing the shape of the lens to focus on near or distant objects.
- <em>To focus on a near object</em> – the lens becomes thicker, this allows the light rays to refract (bend) more strongly.
- <em>To focus on a distant object </em>– the lens is pulled thin, this allows the light rays to refract slightly.
2) - i don't know. im so sorry -
A biologist whose interest lies primarily in the study of plants or animals can be called a naturalist, although these days it's more likely she'll be called a natural historian, a botanist, or a zoologist.
Scientists use triangulation to find the epicenter of an earthquake. When seismic data is collected from at least three different locations, it can be used to determine the epicenter by where it intersects. Every earthquake is recorded on numerous seismographs located in different directions. Each seismograph records the times when the first (P waves) and second (S waves) seismic waves arrive. From that information, scientists can determine how fast the waves are traveling. Knowing this helps them calculate the distance from the epicenter to each seismograph.
To determine the direction each wave traveled, scientists draw circles around the seismograph locations. The radius of each circle equals the known distance to the epicenter. Where these three circles intersect is the epicenter.
