Answer: The correct answer is (b)

Explanation:

out of 500 fish, 100 fish were tagged

50 fishes can be caught.

we need to find the number of fishes which would be tagged.

The ratio of tagged fishes and total fishes is =\frac{100}{500}

So, the number fishes tagged in the caught fishes is = \frac{100}{500}\times 50 =10

Hence, 10 fishes are expected to be tagged among the 50 caught fishes.

The correct option is b

Animals lose heat through the surface areas of their skin. A small animal, such as a mouse, uses a much larger proportion of its
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Because of the difference in surface area to volume ratio

Explanation:

Surface are to volume ratio is the area of an object that is exposed to the external environment (surface area), compared to the amount within an object (volume).

Therefore an elephant has a lower surface area to volume ratio than a mouse.

The smaller an object is the greater its surface area to volume ratio.

Small animals have much more surface area per mass than large animals. With so much surface area, they lose heat very quickly. So, a mouse, with a lot of surface area per mass, must spend a lot more energy to stay warm than a large animal.
