Types of reflection

Light reflects from a smooth surface at the same angle as it hits the surface. For a smooth surface, reflected light rays travel in the same direction. This is called specular reflection. For a rough surface, reflected light rays scatter in all directions. This is called diffuse reflection.

Diffuse reflection is when light hits an object and reflects in lots of different directions. This happens when the surface is rough. Most of the things we see are because light from a source has reflected off it.

For example, if you look at a bird, light has reflected off that bird and travelled in nearly all directions. If some of that light enters your eyes, it hits the retina at the back of your eyes. An electrical signal is passed to your brain, and your brain interprets the signals as an image.

How does the digestive system interact with the rest of the body
Ainat [17]

Answer:

The Digestive System gets nutrients (good) from food and hands it over to the blood and Circulatory System then carries those nutrients where they need to go. It Filters out waste from food and pushes it through intestines and out the body.

Explanation:

As food passes through the GI tract, it mixes with digestive juices, causing large molecules of food to break down into smaller molecules. The body then absorbs these smaller molecules through the walls of the small intestine into the bloodstream, which delivers them to the rest of the body.

Why is a testcross necessary to determine genotype when an organism shows a dominant trait
soldier1979 [14.2K]
A dominant trait can be shown both when an organism is homozygous dominant AND heterozygous. Two different genotypes give the same visible result so a testcross is needed to be able to accurately say if the organism is homozygous dominant or heterozygous

Most of the food and oxygen in the environment is produced by the action of
Stolb23 [73]

The correct answer is (4) Autotrophic organism.

Green plants make their own food by the process of photosynthesis using sunlight. Most of the autotrophs use carbon dioxide, sunlight and carbon dioxide to produce glucose that is used by the plants to obtain energy. Most of the oxygen comes from these organisms and decrease in the number of green plants can lead to several problems due to decrease in the amount of oxygen. Example: green plants, algae, and even some bacteria. This food and oxygen is produced by the action of autotrophic organisms
