Answer:

B.Diffraction

Explanation:

We are given that a person flying in a plane over Easter island notices that the water around the island appear bluer than the surrounding water .

We have to find the property by  which light waves causes the water to be a different color to the observer.

Diffraction: It is  a phenomena  in which  bending of light  around  the corner of an obstacle or aperture into a region of geometrical shadow of an obstacle.

Due to diffraction the  light waves  bouncing off from the sky and water appears blue and causes the water to be different color to the observer.

Hence, option B is true.

B. Diffraction is what causes the water to look blue by it “bouncing off” the light waves from the sky. This is why the water and sky are the same color.

Intuitively as it sounds, cyclic change is the change that recurs over a particular period of time. Seasons recur every year in specific regions on earth. In addition, receeding and expanding of ice caps also occur  based on seasons. These two are examples of cyclic changes.

Examples of homozygous recessive?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Please mark as brainliest....thanks!!!

Explanation:

An organism can be homozygous dominant if it carries two copies of the same dominant allele, or homozygous recessive if it carries two copies of the same recessive allele. Heterozygous means that an organism has two different alleles of a gene.

A homozygous recessive allele combination contains two recessive alleles and expresses the recessive phenotype. For example, the gene for seed shape in pea plants exists in two forms, one form (or allele) for round seed shape (R) and the other for wrinkled seed shape (r)

What role does water play in photosynthesis? Water behaves as a pigment in chloroplasts to absorb light. Water acts as an electr
dexar [7]

Answer:

Water provides hydrogen and electrons used in producing glucose.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is process peculiar to green plants and other organisms like algae and some bacteria. Plants synthesize their own food in form of an organic molecule (glucose) by combining carbondioxide (CO2) and H2O in the presence of sunlight. They absorb light energy from the sun to power the first process called LIGHT stage, where NADPH and ATP are produced to be used in the next stage. The electrons used to reduce NADP to NADPH comes from the "PHOTOLYSIS OF WATER"

CO2 is absorbed via the stomata in the leaves of plants. The CO2 is then fixed in the stroma of the CHLOROPLAST when it undergoes series of reactions in the Calvin cycle to produce glucose. However, the glucose molecule (C6H12O6) contains hydrogen which CO2 does not possess, this Hydrogen is provided by water during the light stage where it donated it to NADP+

PIT_PIT [208]

Most probably these scientists will do more studies and experiments in order to learn more about the subject. For example, if they compare plastic grocery bag with paper grocery bag it is important to investigate which one is a better resource use in the life cycles, which one is better for manufacturing or whether one of them can be reused. There are many questions about this issue.
