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 flywheel of a steam engine runs with a constant angular velocity of 150 rev/min. When steam is shut off, the friction of the

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

a) -1.14 rev/min²

b) 9900 rev

c) -9.92×10⁻⁴ m/s²

d) 30.8 m/s²

Explanation:

First, convert hours to minutes:

2.2 h × 60 min/h = 132 min

a) Angular acceleration is change in angular velocity over change in time.

α = (ω − ω₀) / t

α = (0 rev/min − 150 rev/min) / 132 min

α = -1.14 rev/min²

b) θ = θ₀ + ω₀ t + ½ αt²

θ = 0 rev + (150 rev/min) (132 min) + ½ (-1.14 rev/min²) (132 min)²

θ = 9900 rev

c) The tangential component of linear acceleration is:

a_t = αr

First, convert α from rev/min² to rad/s²:

-1.14 rev/min² × (2π rad/rev) × (1 min / 60 s)² = -1.98×10⁻³ rad/s²

Therefore:

a_t = (-1.98×10⁻³ rad/s²) (0.50 m)

a_t = -9.92×10⁻⁴ m/s²

d) The magnitude of the net linear acceleration can be found from the tangential component and the radial component:

a² = (a_t)² + (a_r)²

The radial component is the centripetal acceleration:

a_r = v² / r

a_r = ω² r

First, convert 75 rev/min to rad/s:

75 rev/min × (2π rad/rev) × (1 min / 60 s) = 7.85 rad/s

Find the radial component:

a_r = (7.85 rad/s)² (0.50 m)

a_r = 30.8 m/s²

Now find the net linear acceleration:

a² = (-9.92×10⁻⁴ m/s²² + (30.8 m/s²)²

a = 30.8 m/s²

The horse on a carousel is 3.5m from the central axis.A. If the carousel rotates at 0.13 rev/s , how long does it take the horse

Kitty [74]

Answer:

a. 15.4 seconds

b. 0.455 m/s

Explanation:

a. The carousel rotates at 0.13 rev/s.

This means that it takes the carousel 1 sec to make 0.13 of an entire revolution.

This means that time it will take to make a complete revolution is:

1 / 0.13 = 7.7 seconds

Therefore, the time it will take to make 2 revolutions is:

2 * 7.7 = 15.4 seconds

b. Let us calculate the linear velocity. Angular velocity is given as:

$\omega = v / r$

where v = linear velocity and r = radius

The radius of the circle is 3.5 m and the angular velocity is 0.13 rev/s, therefore:

0.13 = v / 3.5

v = 3.5 * 0.13 = 0.455 m/s

Linear velocity is 0.455 m/s

What are common features of both the MMPI-2 and CPI? Select all that apply.

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: D

Both MMPI-2 and CPI check for serious personality disorders.

MMPI - 2

MMPI - 2 stands for Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory -2. It is the most widely used psychometric test to measure adult psychopathology. MMPI-2 differentiates people with hypochondriasis from normal one. MMPI-2 is able to detect unconsciously somatizing or consciously malingering in patients.

CPI

CPI stands for california psychological inventory. It is a self report inventory created by Harrision G. This test used to test the people, which are 13 years and older. It takes 40 minutes to complete the test. CPI works on "folk-concepts" which means an ordinary people can use it to describe other people around him.

A cyclist rides 6.2 km east, then 9.28 km in a direction 27.27 degrees west of north, then 7.99 km west. A. What is the magnitud

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Explanation:

given,

cyclist ride 6.2 km east and then 9.28 km in the direction of 27.27° west of north and then 7.99 km west.

vertical component = 9.28 cos∅

= 9.28 cos 27.27°

= 8.24 km

horizontal axis component = 9.28 sin ∅

= 9.28 sin 27.27°

= 4.5 km

distance of the final point from the origin

= 7.99 -(6.2-4.5)

= 6.29 km

displacement

$d = \sqrt{6.29^2+8.24^2}$

d = 10.37 km

b) $tan \theta = \dfrac{6.29}{8.24}$

θ = 37.36°
