A) a piece of wood B) sunglass lenses C) a piece of paper D) a clear glass vase Which of these is an opaque object?

An opaque object is any object that is not transparent (allowing all light to pass through it), or translucent (allowing some light to pass through it.) Knowing this we can auto-matically dismiss option D),B), and C) because these all let some form of light through them  so our answer would then be A) because light does not pass through wood like it would the others.

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Most scientists were not yet concerned about global warming. This was because the major issue during the period between 1940 and 1970 was global cooling with little or no attention on global warming.

However things started to change due to more pollution as a result of technological advances. Global warming started becoming a concern between 1970s and 1990s because of the increase in steady surface temperature.

Evolutionary theory contends that genetic ___________ is necessary and beneficial for humanity when there is an environmental ch
Anni [7]

Answer:

variation

Explanation:

Genetic variation is what makes us all unique as a result of subtle changes in our DNA.  The Theory of Evolution is a process in which organisms change over time as a result of adapting to their environment.  Charles Darwin came up with the term Survival of the fittest, in any environment plants and animals from the same species show natural variation in their physical characteristics, like neck lengths in giraffes.  Darwin suggested that the plants and animals best suited to the environment will survive and pass on their characteristics to their offspring. Over time, the characteristics of the surviving members of the species will become predominant.

Example: Peppered moth

In London in the 1800's, 98% of peppered moths had light colored bodies and only 2% were dark.  The light moths were the same color as the trees so they could easily hide from hungry birds and not get eaten.  The dark moths however were easy to see and were eaten.  Then came the factories and smoke of the industrial evolution and many trees turned black with soot and suddenly the dark moths were able to survive better as they now looked like the trees and the light colored moths were easier to spot and eat.  By 1895 the dark peppered moths made up 95% of the population and the light colored moths only 5%.  This is an example of natural selection, because of the gene that makes the moths dark, it allowed them to flourish when the environment changed, they adapted, reproduced and survived.

Answer:

Exergonic reaction

Explanation:

  • A chemical reaction which is associated with a release of energy and thus, is associated with a negative free energy change is said to be an exergonic reaction.
  • An exergonic reaction owing to the negative free energy change is a spontaneous reaction.
  • The energy that is released in the exergonic reaction is usually observed  in the form of heat and light.
  • The energy is released due to the breaking of the chemical bonds.
  • Therefore, on burning of the firewood the bonds between the glucose molecules break up which leads to the release of energy in the form of heat and light and this is thus, an example of an exergonic reaction.

You see an entire pond, with the same plant across most of it. The plant seems to be surviving very well. Which adaptation does
faust18 [17]

Answer: One advantage is, well, the water. There’s plenty of it and it’s all around. Therefore, most aquatic plants do not need adaptations for absorbing, transporting, and conserving water. They can save energy and matter by not growing extensive root systems, vascular tissues, or thick cuticles on leaves. Support is also less of a problem because of the buoyancy of water. As a result, adaptations such as strong woody stems and deep anchoring roots are not necessary for most aquatic plants.
