Answer:

Carotenoids absorb light maximally between 460 nm and 550 nm and appear red, orange, or yellow to sight.

Answer:

blue-violet

Explanation:

Generally the appearance of a photosynthetic plants depends on the wave of light on the absorption spectrum that the pigments absorbs.  Thus a leaf appears green at  sight  because the  chlorophyll pigment  absorbed  wavelength of lights in red-blue-violet region, and reflect green back to the eyes.

Carotenoids appears as orange-yellow in color to eyes.Thus the plant in the question is a carotenoids. They usually absorbed light in blue-violet region of absorption spectrum. Therefore since this plant  is a carotenoids, definitely it must absorbed in Blue-violet ,(400-550mn) and appear orange-yellow since it did not absorbed this but reflects  back to eyes.

With advancing age, the lymphatic system ________.
Pepsi [2]

The right answer is D (less responsive to antigens)


It is proven that, after puberty, thymus activity (an organ that is included in the lymphatic system, producing T cells that pick up antigens) decreases and that in adult and aged people the thymus has no role. Work done in humans indicate that in fact the cellularity begins to decline from birth in favor of lymphocyte perivascular spaces and connective and adipose tissue, which leads to a decrease in the capture of antigens.

Did the Florida Panther become endangered because of natural selection, genetic drift, or gene flow?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

ALL OF THE ABOVE

Explanation:

Genetic Drift are the changes in allele frequency of a population that result from RANDOM survival or reproduction of individuals with certain characteristics.  Survival or reproduction of those individuals in the face of some environmental change is a matter of LUCK or CHANCE, not because of their phenotype or genotype.

While in Natural selection, the environmental events that affect a population are likely random, but the survival or reproduction of the individuals depends on their phenotypes and genotypes.

Meanwhile, Gene flow is the movement of genes into or out of a population. Low gen flow can lead to low genetic diversity.

Low population which can cause low genetic diversity, poor habitat conditions and habitat loss, road deaths, and commercial development in panther range are constant threats to the Florida Panther's survival.

All these causes are related and therefore affects the Florida Panther.
