Answer:

The colony decrease by 84%

Explanation:

Given -

Total population of butterflies before devastation (P) = 150

Total Population of butterflies that survived after the devastation = 24

Total population of butterflies that did not survived = P-p

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get-

Total population of butterflies that did not survived = 150 -24

Percentage by which the butterfly colony decreased = \frac{P-p}{P} * 100\\= \frac{150-24}{150} * 100\\= 84%

Which statement best describes the orbit of Earth?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

B. Earth rotates on its own axis and revolves around the Sun.

Explanation:

The earth moves not only in one way but in two ways. It revolves around its axis and revolves around the Sun.

We do not notice it because we are on Earth and we turn together with it.

When the Earth revolves around its (imagined) axis, we call such a movement a rotation, and when it revolves around the Sun - a revolution.

Westkost [7]

The correct answer is: 100x.

The calculation of total magnification of the microscope includes multiplying the magnification of the lenses together, So, to calculate the total magnification take the power of the objective (10X) and multiply by the power of the eyepiece, ocular lens (10X).

In which types of situations is the smallest unit rate the most desirable?
vekshin1

You should use the smallest unit rate any time accuracy is needed.  For example, if you are administering dosages of vaccines, you should use the smallest syringe possible for the dosage.  A smaller syringe will have more precise graduations than a larger one.  The same holds true for glassware such as graduated cylinders.  A 1000 ml graduated cylinder will probably not have a 5 ml graduation on it, and measuring out 5 ml with a cylinder that large would be guesswork at best.  A 10 ml graduated cylinder, however, will have graduations for every 0.1 ml, and would be suitable for measuring small amounts of liquids.
