B. The water in the glass entered the raisins. C. The grapes used for making the raisins weren’t properly dried. D. The raisins were bad-quality raisins and therefore were swollen.

B is the answer. Dry raisins swell up because they undergo Endosmosis. When a rasin is put in water then the water passes through the semipermeable membrane

Answer:

Option B, The water in the glass entered the raisins

Explanation:

The concentration of water with in the resin is much lower than that of the glass of drinking water. Due to this difference in concentration, a concentration gradient is established which forces the water to move from region of high concentration (i.e glass) to the region of low concentration (i.e with in the resin) thereby causing the resins to swell.

Hence, option B is correct.

Why do some offspring look like their parents, while others do not?
castortr0y [4]
Some offsprings look like their parents because we all have different genes. Different combinations of genes for one of these traits create a bunch of different physical attributes. Even though we get all our DNA from our parents, each of us has a unique combination of genes.

Before a captive breeding program and subsequent reintroduction of the black-footed ferret it is believed that their total popul
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

a) 99.93%

b) 99.98%

Explanation:

Given that:

Total population size was only around 18 individuals ( for  black-footed ferret)

If the annual survival rate in the wild was 0.4%.

a)

What is the probability that all 18 would have died in a single year?

To find that; we multiply the annual survival rate in the wild with the total population; which is:

(0.4%×18) = 0.072%

Then; we subtract it from a total of 100% in order to determine the probability that all 18 would have died in a single year.

= (100.00% - 0.072%)

= 99.93%

b)

What is the probability that all 18 would have died in a single year if canine distemper was present?

Given that;

Because of the presence of canine distemper disease, the annual mortality rate might have been as high as 0.89.

To determine the probability; we have:

1 - Annual mortality rate = annual survival rate

1 - 0.89 = 0.11 %

Therefore, 0.11% of 18 individuals = (0.0011 × 18)

= 0.0198%

Probability that all 18 would have died in a single year if canine distemper was present = 100 - probability of annual survival rate

= (100 - 0.0198)%

= 99.98%
