Answer:

B. Thicker layer of blubber

Explanation:

For the leopard seals to survives this harsh environment, it must have a thicker layer of blubber

Blubber is a thick layer of fat. It is called the adipose tissues and found in most marine organisms.

  • This layer helps in insulating the body against heat loss.
  • By so doing, the animal is able to conserve internal heat.
  • They have low thermal conductivity and do not easily lose heat or gain heat as such.

In general, in what type of solvent (non-polar, moderately polar, or highly polar) are polar solutes most soluble? Explain why.
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

  • In general, polar solutes are most soluble in highly polar solvents.

Explanation:

The general rule is "like dissolves like" which means that <em>polar solvents </em>dissolve polar (or ionic) <em>solutes</em> and <em>non-polar solvents</em> dissolve non-polar solutes.

In order for a solvent dissolve a solute, the strength of the interacttion (force) between the solute and the solvent units (atoms, molecules, or ions) must be stronger than the strength of the forces that keep together he particles of the pure substances (known as intermolecular forces).

Since the nature of the interactions between the units are electrostatic, the more polar is the solvent the better it will be able to attract and surround the solute particles, keeping them separated and in solution. That mechanism explains why polar solutes will be most soluble in highly polar solvents.

ryzh [129]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Which of the following aspects of biotechnology is Not considered to be a moral or ethical issue?

a.research and testing on animals

b.cloning living material

c.reducing research cost

d.damaging the environment

Answer:

c.reducing research cost

Explanation:

Ethical issues arise when a particular course of action is at odds with the generally acceptable moral standard in the society.

Research and testing on animals is contested as an ethical issue by animal rights activists.

Cloning living material  is prohibited among some sections of society and is also being contested as an ethical issue.

Damaging the environment the environment owing to biotechnology research is generally regarded as an ethical issue.

However, reducing research cost is highly acceptable in any research. It does not pose an ethical issue.
