Answer:Their strongly hydrophobic nature allows them to function as water repellents on the leaves of some plants, on feathers, and on the cuticles of certain insects. Waxes also serve as energy-storage substances in plankton (microscopic aquatic plants and animals) and in higher members of the aquatic food chain.

MariettaO [177]

Abstract shapes that suggest plant forms or human anatomy without explicitly resembling anything nameable and allude to these natural organic forms are called <u>Biomorphic</u>.

These shapes may look like leaves, flowers, clouds—things that grow, flow, and move. The term biomorphic means: life-form (bio=life and morph= form). Biomorphic shapes are often rounded and irregular, unlike most geometric shapes.

Biomorphic forms are those that represent natural forms often in an abstract way, relying on contour, patterns, and textures to draw a connection to nature. This can appear in architectural or structural form, or in smaller, more decorative applications.

A researcher performs an experiment to test a hypothesis that involves the nutrients niacin and retinol. She feeds one group of
julsineya [31]

Answer:

- 100 grams of food A (x)

- 60 grams of food B (y)

Explanation:

According to this question, the group of laboratory rats are being fed a daily diet of:

- 125.6 units of niacin and 5,400 units of retinol

Let x represent the number of grams needed for food A.

Let y represent the number of grams needed for food B.

This means that:

Food A: Niacin = 0.86x, Retinol = 30x

Food B: Niacin = 0.66y, Retinol = 40y

Since there are 125.6 units of niacin fed to the rats in total, then;

0.86x (A) + 0.66y (B) = 125.6

Since there are 5400 units of retinol fed to the rats in total, then;

30x (A) + 40y (B) = 5400

Solving these two equations simultaneously using elimination method:

0.86x (A) + 0.66y (B) = 125.6 ........(eqn 1)

30x (A) + 40y (B) = 5400 ............ (eqn 2)

Multiply eqn 1 by 30 and eqn 2 by 0.86

30 × 0.86x + 0.66y = 125.6

0.86 × 30x + 40y = 5400

25.8x + 19.8y = 3768 ............ (eqn 3)

25.8x + 34.4y = 4644 ........... (eqn 4)

Subtract eqn 3 from eqn 4

14.6y = 876

Divide both sides by 14.6

y = 876/14.6

y = 60

Substitute value for y (60) into eqn 2

30x + 40y = 5400

30x + 40(60) = 5400

30x + 2400 = 5400

30x = 5400 - 2400

30x = 3000

x = 3000/30

x = 100

Therefore, she feeds the group of rats 100grams of food A (x) and 60 grams of food B (y).
