<h2>Answer:</h2>

The option A, B and E are correct.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Homeostasis is the ability or tendency to maintain internal stability in an organism to compensate for environmental changes. An example of homeostasis is the human body keeping an average temperature of 37 C degrees.

Homeostasis, any self-regulating process by which biological systems tend to maintain stability while adjusting to conditions that are optimal for survival.

So for the existence of living organism homeostasis is important.

Statements A, B and E apply to the definition of homeostasis.

Joyce is planting tulips in her garden, and she has 5 red bulbs and 5 white bulbs to plant in one row. What is the probability t

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{126}$ or 0.0079.

Explanation:

Joyce is planting tulips in her garden.

Number of red (R) bulbs = 5

Number of white (W) bulbs = 5

Total number of ways to plant 10 bulbs in one row is

$\text{Total ways}=\frac{10!}{5!5!}$

$\text{Total ways}=\frac{10\times 9\times 8\times 7\times 6\times 5!}{5\times 4\times 3\times 2\times 1\times 5!}$

Cancel out common factors.

$\text{Total ways}=252$

It is given that she randomly plants the bulbs so that all 5 red bulbs are next to each other and all 5 white bulbs are next to each other.

Required outcomes are

RRRRRWWWWW and WWWWWRRRRR

$\text{Required outcomes}=2$

Formula for probability:

$Probability=\frac{\text{Required outcomes}}{\text{Total ways}}$

$Probability=\frac{2}{252}$

$Probability=\frac{1}{126}$

$Probability\approx 0.0079$

Therefore the required probability is $\frac{1}{126}$ or 0.0079.

What causes changes in air pressure in the atmosphere

harina [27]

Answer:

Air pressure is caused by the weight of the air molecules above

Explanation:

Air pressure is caused by the weight of the air molecules above. Even tiny air molecules have some weight, and the huge numbers of air molecules that make up the layers of our atmosphere collectively have a great deal of weight, which presses down on whatever is below.
