PROS: It dissolves in water and lowers the freezing point of water so a lower temperature is required for ice to form. This makes the road less treacherous for vehicles. Road salt is usually cheap and readily available. Since salt is already a constituent of sea water, it does not cause pollution when washed away.
CONS: Salt dissolved in water is corrosive to metal. A metalled road surface may eventually be attacked by the corrosive, leading to damage of the surface. The salt solution is splashed on to the bodies and into the engine parts of vehicles and, unless properly protected, the metal parts of the vehicle will become corroded. Salt solution is a good conductor of electricity so it could under certain circumstances affect the electrical circuits within vehicles. When the salt solution dries out it leaves a deposit of white salt on the surface. The spreading of road salt is often carried out by specially equipped vehicles, so there is a cost incurred in salt spreading. Usually salt is mixed with grit.
A phylogenetic tree based on morphology can be constructed using the presence or lack of characteristics. In this illustration, all aliens except the outgroup possess a spring tail, all aliens possess a fourth eye, two aliens possess two tails, and one alien has a grasping hand. The evolutionary relationships between these organisms can be hypothesized using these traits.
Aliens:
- We can determine whether the following traits are present in the remaining aliens by using the group of aliens with the tail stalk as our test group.
- Out group: a group that is maintained apart from the clade but is yet connected to it.
- If we provide these aliens alphabets for ease of understanding, then aliens will be like in order.
- We can use the group of aliens with the tail stalk as our test group to see if the following characteristics are present in the remaining aliens.
- A group that is kept separate from the clade while yet being affiliated with it is known as an out group.
- The aliens will appear to be in order if we give them alphabets for simplicity.

The biceps and triceps muscles work together to allow you to bend and straighten your elbow. When you want to bend your elbow, your biceps muscle contracts (Figure below), and, at the same time, the triceps muscle relaxes. The biceps is the flexor, and the triceps is the extensor of your elbow joint.
