The vessels use three main colors (white, green and red) where each color alone, combination of two colors as well as the three colors together each has a certain meaning. This meaning is sort of an international code that is agreed all over the globe.

So, based on this code, the presence of only visible white light means that your vessel might be overtaking another vessel. In this case, you should give way to either sides. The other vessel should standby until an action is taken from your end.

When encountering another vessel in the darkness or in reduced visibility, the presence of only the white light indicates that you are overtaking another vessel. So, give way to either side.

Further explanation:

White light only:

When you are encountering another vessel in the reduced visibility or darkness, then the presence of only the white light shows that you are overtaking any other vessel. In this situation you should give way to either side, while the other vessel over taken should stand on.  

White and red light:

In darkness when encountering another vessel, when the red and the white lights are present then it shows that you are approaching to the port side of the power boat. So, give way to your starboard side.  

White and green light:

In darkness when you are encountering another vessel, when the green and white light are visible then you should stand on because you are approaching the starboard side of the power boat.  

White, red and green lights:

When all white, red and green lights are visible then it means that you are approaching a power boat head on. So, you should give a way to starboard side.  All these navigation lights indicate specific conditions. So, while boating in the reduced light you should be very careful.

nydimaria [60]

The answer is copper. Nonrenewable resources are those that cannot be readily/naturally replaced at rates that match those of consumption (an aspect that allow renewable resources to be sustainable). Copper are made deep in earth at very slow rates hence do not readily renew themselves. Organisms, on the other hand die, and are naturally replaced by offspring.

The table below shows the amount of carbohydrates in same-size servings of different fruits. Amount of Carbohydrates in Fruit 23
marta [7]

Answer:

As per the data provided, the correct answer would be cherries.

The effect of any food in increasing the blood sugar level can be understood with the help of glycemic load. It takes in the account of both the glycemic index as well as serving size.

It states that the glycemic response of our body depends on both "the type of carbohydrate and the amount of carbohydrate" consumed in a meal.

For example, glycemic response of small size high GI food is the same as that of large size low GI food.

It can be calculated as follows:

\text{glycemic load} = \frac{\text{glycemic index x net carbohydrate}}{100}

Hence, glycemic load of apple would be = (38 x 17)/100 = 6.4.

Similarly, glycemic load of cherries, oranges, and watermelons would be 4.18, 10, 8.6 respectively.

Hence, cherries are the fruit which has low glycemic load value of 4.18. So, the glycemic response of this fruit would be low. Hence, it will result increase the blood sugar by the least value.
