Options are not provded in the question. The complete question is:

All of the following substances are derived from petroleum EXCEPT

A) asphalt

B) DDT

C) cellulose

D) polystyrene

E) nylon

Answer: C) cellulose

Explanation:

Cellulose is defined as an organic compound made up of many hundred to several thousands of β linked D-glucose units arranged in a  linear chain. Cellulose is a significant structural part of green plant's primary cell wall, many types of oomycetes and algae.

Human beings can not digest cellulose but as a source of fibre, it is essential in the diet. Cellulose is used for storing clothes and paper.

Hence, cellulose is not a derivative of petroleum.

I think the answer is most likely be J.

The first (F) one the population of the predator increases hugely while the population of the prey was neutral. And so both population didn’t seem to have any connection. Same goes for H. Graph G doesn’t make sense at all the population of the prey didn’t exist throughout the time in the graph but only exist in one single point of time and then just vanish again so that shouldn’t be the answer either.
In graph J, you can see the correlation between the two populations as the predator goes up and so does the prey.
You can search up on google predator-prey relationship graph to get better understanding.

Rob says crescent is when you can see less than half of the moon illuminated. “Gibbous, you attach that to either waxing or waning when you see more than half of the moon illuminated,” he said. Waxing means it's getting bigger while waning means it's getting smaller.
