I am going for B. because the ultraviolet light could cause mutation to occur. This is a type of mutagen called mutagen in the environment (its also called a UV light)

A mutation is a change in the nucleotide sequence that can create a new function in the organism and in this case the mutaion may have caused the color to seperate from the light. Hope this helps:)

Causing respiratory rate to
lesya [120]

Answer:

A) Decreases;increase

Explanation:

When there are high levels of carbon dioxide in the respiratory system, the blood pH level decreases, causing respiratory rate to increase.

This condition is acidosis because not enough CO2 escapes lungs hence CO2 accumulates and decreases pH of blood, making it more acidic. As blood pH drops (becomes more acidic), the parts of the brain that regulate breathing are stimulated to produce faster and deeper breathing to increase the amount of carbon dioxide exhaled to bring our body to the ideal pH.

Which of the following has mechanical energy? Battery Burger bun Drawn bow Sunlight
Vladimir79 [104]
Drawn bow because the flexing of the bow and the increased tension in the bow string contain the energy expended by the archer’s muscles transferred to the bow. The energy is transmitted to the arrow when then it’s released. All this is mechanical energy.
The other items in the list have potential electrical energy (battery), locked energy in the nutrients released during digestion (bun), electromagnetic energy (sun).
