Explain why inmates who have been in the dark cell for quite long usually have problems with their eyes and usually squint when
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

No one can see in total darkness. Fortunately, there’s almost always some light available. Even if it’s only dim starlight, that’s enough for your eyes to detect. What’s truly amazing is how little light is required for you to see.

Human eyes have two main features that help us see better in low light: the pupil’s ability to change size, and the eye’s two types of light-sensing cells.

Opening up to let in more light

Your pupils are the black areas at the front of your eyes that let light enter. They look black because the light that reaches them is absorbed inside the eyeball. It’s then converted by your brain into your perceptions of the world.

You’ve probably noticed that pupils can change size in response to light. Outside on a bright sunny day, your pupils become very small. This lets less light into the eye since there’s plenty available

1-The correct answers is C- evolutionary classification.
Evolutionary classification/taxonomy is a branch of biological classification. The objective is to classify organisms and group them based on their shared descent, progenitor-descendant relationship and degree of evolutionary change. Now this classification can be done by comparing DNA sequences of the organisms and seeing how many they have in common

2- The correct answer is A-cladistic analysis.
A cladistic analysis is focused on categorizing the organisms based on their derived characters. And what is that? that means they are getting categorized
according to their evolutionary relationships( from ancestral characters).
So, species are going to be classified according to how recent their common ancestor is. If two species have a more recent ancestor they will end up in the same group
If the common ancestor between them is far, the distance between the respective taxa will be bigger.

3- The correct answers is C.
A derived character is a characteristic that appeared throughout evolution, still remains in a lot of different taxonomic groups and allows us to identify those groups.
From the options given, C is the only correct one because the presence of hair (a derived character)  only exists in mammals( the group). Other animals don't share that trait.


4-The answer is A.
In each node, a taxon was only one but then was divided into two taxa. Therefore, each node will represent a common ancestor of the taxon.
The correct option is A because the last node or terminal node is the hypothetical last common ancestor of the taxon on the cladogram.

5-  The correct answer is A.-DNA can solve evolutionary puzzles.
Dna has been helping understand how an organism is similar to more than one species, and that way, we can classify the organism the best way possible.
This can be achieved by comparing the nucleotides of the organism we want to classify, with other species. There are databases that have all the DNA sequenced so, what's left to do is count the common nucleotides and their positions.

One example of poaching that is prevalent in your area
Gnom [1K]
Poaching of the tiger is very common in India and has very badly affected the population of the tiger. They are mainly slaughtered for their skin, bones, burnt hair, whiskers, etc. Poaching of other animals such as elephants, lions, etc is also very common. It's a shame on human beings to kill animals for their selfish motives.

How is energy related to the reactants and products of a chemical reaction​
densk [106]

Answer:

All chemical reactions involve energy.Energy is used to break bonds inreactants, and energy is released when new bonds form in products. Endothermic reactions absorb energy, and exothermic reactions releaseenergy. The law of conservation ofenergy states that matter cannot be created or destroyed.
