Biology

Refraction- bending of light waves (ex. straw in a cup of water looks bent on a side but really is NOT, this is due to refraction, it bends the light waves reflected)

Luminescence- Creation/Emission/Starting or making of light through ways that DO NOT INVOLVE heat.

Ultraviolet- a wavelength that is part of the electromagnetic spectrum its shorter than visible light waves.

How does the digestive system facilitate excretion of wastes?
Advocard [28]
The digestive system facilitates excretion of wastes by eliminating wastes from the digestive tract. During the digestion process, after the nutrients in the food has been absorbed by the small intestine, the waste products in the food will be moved into the large intestine where it will be processed for elimination in the form of feces. <span />

Living things come from other living things through either sexual or asexual reproduction.
Iteru [2.4K]

Explanation:

Organisms don’t have to only reproduce sexually or only reproduce asexually - some animals do both!

When conditions are good, such organisms will reproduce asexually because it is easier. For example, starfish (by fragmentation), slime molds, and water fleas/daphnia (by parthenogenesis) all reproduce asexually when there is plenty of food, minimal predators, and not too much crowding of individuals of the same species.

When conditions worsen (less food, too many individuals, etc), they may switch to sexual reproduction in order to add genetic variation to their population and ensure survival through difficult times.
