Answer:It turns out the Venus flytrap is a power plant, capable of generating electrical signals. Each trap is actually a modified leaf: a hinged midrib, which would be the central vein of a more familiar leaf, joins the two lobes, which secrete a sweet sap to attract insects.
Explanation:The leaves of Venus' Flytrap open wide and on them are short, stiff hairs called trigger or sensitive hairs. When anything touches these hairs enough to bend them, the two lobes of the leaves snap shut trapping whatever is inside.
Answer:

Explanation:
A) only Enough air to create a visible rise of the chest.
B) Until you can no longer force air in.
C) plenty of air make sure it is adequate to sustain life
D) clear and obvious rise of the chest, sustained over a few seconds
Answer:
Rubber is an insulator.
Explanation:
Rubber is an insulator. Electricity will always travel "the path of least resistance." Rubber has a very high resistance, so electricity will go somewhere else to find ground.
Answer: Accoding to research "Triton is unique among all the large moons in the solar system because it orbits Neptune in a direction opposite to the planet's rotation (a "retrograde" orbit). It is unlikely to have formed in this configuration and was probably captured from elsewhere."

The Clausius-Clapeyron equation is useful in calculating the boiling point of a liquid at various pressures. It is:
Tb = 1/(1/T0 - R ln(P/P0)/Hvap)
where
Tb = Temperature boiling
R = Ideal Gas Constant (8.3144598 J/(K*mol) )
P = Pressure of interest
Hvap = Heat of vaporization of the liquid
T0, P0 = Temperature and pressure at a known point.
The temperatures are absolute temperatures.
We know that water boils at 100C at 14.7 psi. Yes, it's ugly to be mixing metric and imperial units like that. But since we're only interested in relative pressure differences, it's safe enough. So
P0 = 14.7
P = 14.7 + 12.3 = 27
T0 = 100 + 273.15 = 373.15
And for water, the heat of vaporization per mole is 40660 J/mol
Let's substitute the known values and calculate.
Tb = 1/(1/T0 - R ln(P/P0)/Hvap)
Tb = 1/(1/373.15 K - 8.3144598 J/(K*mol) ln(27/14.7)/40660 J/mol)
Tb = 1/(0.002679887 1/K - 8.3144598 1/K ln(1.836734694)/40660)
Tb = 1/(0.002679887 1/K - 8.3144598 1/K 0.607989372/40660)
Tb = 1/(0.002679887 1/K - 5.055103194 1/K /40660)
Tb = 1/(0.002679887 1/K - 0.000124326 1/K)
Tb = 1/(0.002555561 1/K)
Tb = 391.3034763 K
Tb = 391.3034763 K - 273.15
Tb = 118.1534763 C
Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 118 C</span>
