Answer:

The correct answer is option (d) "both b and c".

Explanation:

Experimental model organisms used in scientific investigations have to fulfill certain criteria in order to be useful in the laboratory. Two of the desired characteristics are being able to reproduce quickly and with enough number of offspring in order to study genetic behaviors. <em>Arabidopsis thaliana</em> characteristics of being able to reproduce in 8–10 weeks and producing thousands of offspring per plant (because it can produce thousands of seeds) makes it a model flowering plant for experimental studies.

An astronaut is in a sleeping bag attached to a wall. When astronauts sleep in space, they sleep in small cabins or in sleeping
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Free fall.

Explanation:

When astronauts sleep in space, they sleep in small cabins or in sleeping bags that are attached to the wall or ceiling of the station. Everything is weightless as there’s no gravity in space. So while sleeping there is a chance of floating around and bumping into things. Astronauts use sleeping bags that can be tethered to the wall or ceiling to solve this problem. Also the tethered sleeping bags provide a normal sleeping environment to the astronauts  as they can feel pressure on their back and head.  Their sleeping cabin is well ventilated as they can wake up with breathing trouble as a result of the inhalation of their own exhaled carbon dioxide which formed around their heads as a bubble. They use earplugs and a sleep mask to block the noise and light and can sleep vertically or horizontally. Compared to earth, sleeping is a bit different in space.
