Answer:

The correct answer is: Retina.

Explanation:

  • The Retina can be defined as the fine layer of sensory epithelial tissue located near the backward region of the eye.
  • It forms the screen where the image of the object (located outside the eye) is formed after the light from the object gets refracted and focused by the crystalline convex lens in the eye.
  • It is located in close vicinity to the Optic Nerve.
  • The Retina is lined by specialised light-sensitive photoreceptor cells.
  • There are two types of light sensitive-photoreceptor cells which are called the Rods and Cones.
  • The Rod cells are responsible for determining the intensity of light.
  • The Cone cells are responsible for determining the colour.
  • The Retina is responsible for converting the light signal received by the eye into a neural impulse which is then sent to the brain through the optic nerve.

A. dog and cat

B. lion and dog

C. lion and cat

D. cat and mouse

E. they are all likely to be the same

D. CAT AND MOUSE IS THE ANSWER

Explanation:

Mass-specific basal metabolic rate (mass-specific BMR), is the resting energy expenditure per unit body mass per day.

mass-specific BMR mammals decreases as weight increases i.e

Metabolic rates of animals are allometric functions of body size

1. At about what temperature will 100 g of water dissolve equal amounts of potassium chloride
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Dissolving of solute in a particular solvent depends upon the temperature of the solvent.

Explanation:

Solubility is a amount of solute that can be dissolved in fixed amount of solvent at a particular temperature. It is crucial that the amount of solvent remains constant when a solubility of a substance determined .Here the amount of solvent (water) is kept constant at (100 ml). The variable that is changed the temperature of the solvent.

  Suppose a solution able to hold more solute at a particular temperature is unsaturated. A solution is able to hold maximum solute at a particular temperature is saturated. Under certain conditions a solution hold more solute than the maximum  amount at a particular temperature is supersaturated solution. Regarding the dissolving of barium hydroxide and potassium chloride is clearly given in a table which is attached.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

high clean-energy startup costs

Explanation:

Protecting the environment means improving its sustainability and reducing pollution to the barest minimal. This utterly means terminating every activity that contributes to pollution in the environment, including the source of energy. The most widely used source of energy is the non-renewable source e.g. coal, fuel, etc.

These source of energy, however, release pollutants in form of greenhouse gases, into the environment. One way to eliminate the use of non-renewable source of energy is to adopt the use of renewable sources e.g. solar energy, wind etc. However, one major setback to doing this is the high production cost involved.

Although these sources of energy (renewable) are referred to as green or clean, but they have really expensive startup costs and are unaffordable most times.
