The right option is; b. the water caused an increase in temperature of the air inside the ball and an increase in pressure.

The dent (hollow area formed by pressing or hitting) from the ping-pong ball disappeared because energy was transferred from the hot boiling water in which the ball was placed to the air inside the ball. This transferred energy will increase the temperature of the air inside the ball and the air molecules will begin to move faster with a greater force. Hence, causing an increase in pressure.

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:0.8775

Explanation:formula for gene frequency is p+q=1

where p is the dominant allele and q is the recess allele.

Given than p=0.35

P^2=0.35^2=0.1225

q=1-p

q=1-0.1225=0.8775

Answer is 0.8775

A population of trout in a lake has significantly declined over the past year. The main source of food for the fish in this lake
andrew11 [14]

The decline in the overall population of trout and larger fish is because the Insect population has decreased.

<h3>What is a population?</h3>

A population is a group of organisms of the same species living in the same habitat.

Population of organisms is affected by;

  • availability of water
  • space
  • food and nutrients
  • predators
  • climate change

Since the population of trout is directly affected by the number of insect species, the decline in the overall population is because the Insect population has decreased.

lesantik [10]

Answer:

a) It is dangerous to wear nylon clothes while cooking because it is a synthetic cloth and they catch fire easily also they can stick on our body which is very painful.

b) Cotton is a natural product. And unlike synthetic fibres, it is more absorbent. The towel hence has high absorbency.

c) Nylon and polyester are two fabrics most commonly used in raincoats and umbrellas. They are not absorbent the way natural fibers are. They naturally resist waterlogging, and can be made waterproof.
