Step-by-step explanation:
Larval mosquitoes breath through trachea in their siphons. This is a structure analogous to the snorkel on a diesel electric submarine. It allows for gas exchange with the atmosphere while the remainder of the insect is submerged. The opening of the siphon is hydrophobic so it won’t get wet and blocked by water. This works well to keep the siphon and the trachea open under normal conditions. Oil when poured on water forms a thin film. When there are mosquitos in that water, when their siphons contact the oil layer, the oil wets and blocks their siphons and suffocates the mosquitoes. This works against most, but not all mossies, as evolution is an amazing process. Some mosquitoes (Mansonia, Coquilletidia) have a siphon designed to penetrate the air vessels in aquatic plants and they don’t need to come to the surface to breath like other mossies. So oil won’t work on these genera.

please makes me a brainlest
An easy way of finding the answer to your question is by using a scientific calculator. When I plugged in 6,000^10 it gave me 6.0466176x10^37. Yes the answer is in scientific notation, but if you want the answer shortened out to the nearest hundredth place the answer is 6.05.
Answer:
100 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the banner is equal to the area of the initial rectangle minus the area of the cutout triangle.
The rectangle has a height of 8 inches and width of 14 inches, so its area is:
A = (8 in) (14 in) = 112 in²
The triangle has a base of 8 inches and a height of 3 inches, so its area is:
A = ½ (8 in) (3 in) = 12 in²
So the area of the banner is 112 in² − 12 in² = 100 in².
