Why are pygmies short

English
1 answer:
Vadim26 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

There are a number of theories to explain why pygmies are so short. It has been proved that their height is hereditary, and is passed on from parents to children. It may have evolved because of the low ultraviolet light found in rainforests, where many pygmies live. This would mean that the pygmies would make less vitamin D in their skin.

Segment GH is shown on the graph.
Mashutka [201]

Answer: D) (–2.2, –1.2)

Explanation: to divide the segment into a 3:2 ratio, we need to divide the segment into five identical parts, and find the point that divides the segment into 3/5 and 2/5. To do this we have to calculate the distance between the two points of the segment, in x and y, we can do this by just subtracting the two "y" coordinates and the two "x" coordinates:

Δy=║-4-3║=7

Δx=║-1-(-4)║=3

Then we divide those differences by 5.

7/5=1.4

3/5=0.6

and now, we multiply those results by 3 and subtract them or add them from the coordinates of the point G (subtract them from the coordinate y and add it to the coordinate x, because we are moving down and right).

Px=-4+3*0.6=-2.2

Py=3-3*1.4=-1.2

so the coordinates of the point we are looking for (which I called "P") are:

P(-2.2, -1.2).

Regarding the difference between fiction and nonfiction, which statement is most accurate?
jekas [21]

C is incorrect because usually writers of fiction can embellish the facts because they are not based on actual information. D is incorrect because sometimes writers of nonfiction can express their passionate opinions, especially in essays.
