Biology
1 answer:
salantis [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The fish appears nearer to the cat than it really is

Explanation:

The situation above is related to the refraction of light. The cat will think that the fish is closer to him, however, it is actually at a<u> different depth</u> in its<em> actual position</em>. This is because of the refraction of light as it travels in two different mediums: <em>water and air.</em> The eyes and brains are<u> not capable of tracing the light rays' refraction,</u> thus, the cat's image of the fish is on a shallower depth. In reality, the light rays reflecting from the fish are actually being refracted on the water's surface.

olya-2409 [2.1K]
Given that an average human has a heart rate of 70 beats per minute and if one is to have a 70 year life span, the number of times it will beat is 2,575,440,000 times. This was computed by multiply 70 years by 365 days/year x 24 hours/day x 60 minutes/hour x 70 beats/min. Thus, the heart will beat numerous times before it finally stops.
