Please Help Next to Mark’s house, there is a large meadow with small plants and no trees. Behind the meadow is a dense forest wi
th large trees. On a hot summer day, Mark recorded the temperatures in the meadow and in the middle of the forest. Based on the results of your experiment, which place was cooler and why?
The forest would be cooler because the trees are thick and no sunlight is allowed through. things are much cooler when there’s no sunlight allowed near them- think about the difference on a hot summers day sitting in unshaded grass vs sitting in shady grass under a big tree.
Because of the hypertonic solution water will move on the concentration gradient leaving the cell and entering the solution. Thus the cell looses water.
Adaptation is a response to the environment but long term. For example: A wolf has a fur coat as an adaptation to the cold weather, but birds migrating south is a response to cold weather.
A Sustainable society can be defined as the one which utilizes the various available resources in a judicious and economical manner such that the resources can be retained for a longer period of time to be utilized by the future generations. Two traits of such a society are:
Follows the principle of 3Rs, that is Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. This means the society supports the reduction in overuse of resources, promotes the reuse of resources wherever possible and also supports the idea of recycling several resources to sustain the availability of fresh resources.
Tries to harness and make the best possible use of the available renewable resources. The society tries to maximally utilize the renewable resources to fulfill their needs.
A Non-sustainable society can be defined as the one which uses all the available resources extravagantly and profusely without showing any concern over the amount of the resources available for the future. Two traits of such a society are:
They tend to use the more readily available resources uncontrollably without any restriction and often not considering whether the resources are required immediately and essentially or not .
They tend to waste a lot of resources as often harnessing resources to an extent which is more than the requirement of the resources causes the wastage of the excess resource.
