What role does the environment play in defining the appearance of an organism?

2 answers:

An organism naturally adapts to it's environment. Organisms have to adapt to survive to live in a certain environment. Their outside appearance and physical features depends on how they get their food, how they protect themselves from predators, and how they keep their body warm or cold in that climate. This kind of goes with the idea of natural selection. Natural selection is when animals adapt to changes over time by reproducing and creating genetic variations in their offspring. For example, if there are two types of rabbits. One rabbit is black and the other is white. These rabbits live in a very cold place where there is a lot of snow. The predators have been eating most of the black rabbits since, they are easily seen. The white rabbits will keep on reproducing, while the black rabbits population will decrease. After a while the black rabbits will be no more and a new generation of white rabbits will be able to survive and thrive.

An organism grows to its environment, also known as adaptation. Organisms will adapt to their surroundings for survival. For example some paramecium is a small single celled fresh water animal, they are covered in cilia so that they could move through the pond water more effectively. Hope this helps.

The electric current in a wire is 1.5A. How many electrons flow past a given point in a time of 2s?

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The amount of electrons that flow in the given time is 3.0 C.

Explanation:

An electric current is defined as the ratio of the quantity of charge flowing through a conductor to the time taken.

i.e I = $\frac{Q}{t}$ ...................(1)

It is measure in Amperes and can be measured in the laboratory by the use of an ammeter.

In the given question, I = 1.5A, t = 2s, find Q.

From equation 1,

Q = I × t

= 1.5 × 2

= 3.0 Coulombs

The amount of electrons that flow in the given time is 3.0 C.

Parallel rays of monochromatic light with wavelength 571nm illuminate two identical slits and produce an interference pattern on

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

$8.8\times 10^{-6} W/m^2$

Explanation:

We are given that

Wavelength, $\lambda=571 nm=571\times 10^{-9} m$

$1 nm=10^{-9} m$

R=75 cm= $\frac{75}{100}=0.75 m$

1 m=100 cm

$d=0.640 mm=0.64\times 10^{-3} m$

$1 mm=10^{-3} m$

$a=0.434 mm=0.434\times 10^{-3} m$

$y=0.830 mm=0.830\times 10^{-3} m$

$I_0=5.00\times 10^{-4}W/m^2$

$tan\theta=\frac{y}{R}$

$\theta=\frac{0.830\times 10^{-3}}{0.75\times 10^{-2}}$

$\theta=1.1\times 10^{-3}rad$

$tan\theta\approx \theta$

Because $\theta$ is small.

$\phi=\frac{2\pi dsin\theta}{\lambda}$

$\sin\theta\approx \theta$ ,

Therefore

$\phi=\frac{2\times\pi\times 0.64\times 10^{-3}\times 1.1\times 10^{-3}}{571\times 10^{-9}}$

$\phi=7.74 rad$

$\beta=\frac{2\pi a\theta}{\lambda}$

$\beta=5.3 rad$

$I=I_0cos^2(\frac{\phi}{2})(\frac{sin\frac{\beta}{2}}{\frac{\beta}{2}})^2$

$I=5\times 10^{-4}cos^2(\frac{7.74}{2})(\frac{sin\frac{5.3}{2}}{\frac{5.3}{2}})^2$

$I=8.8\times 10^{-6} W/m^2$

What are the factors of evaporation and give explanation

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Temperature and rate of evaporation are proportional to each other. Surface area: As the surface area increases, the rate of evaporation increases. The surface area and rate of evaporation are proportional to each other. Humidity: The rate of evaporation decreases with an increase in humidity.
