Hey there!

Your answer is a. white poster board.

The color an object appears as depends on what colors of light are reflected vs absorbed.

If an object appears as black, that means it doesn't reflect light, but it absorbs the light.

If an object appears as white, that means it doesn't absorb light, but it reflects the light.

White light is all colors of light mixed together.

So, the white poster board is the object reflecting almost all the light that strikes it.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

White poster board  

Explanation:

White light consists of all the colours in the rainbow. A white poster board reflects almost of the white light that hits it, so it appears white to our eyes.

B is wrong. Clear window gas is transparent. Almost all the light that hits it passes straight through

C. is wrong. A bright overhead light is a light source. It is generating its own light.

D is wrong. Black construction paper absorbs almost all the light that hits it. It reflects no light to our eyes, so it appears black.

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Most of its components are anatomically connected, like most other systems of the body.

Explanation:

The endocrine system takes care of the bodily processes that take place slowly. The nervous system and the endocrine system are independent systems, although they usually work together to help the body function properly.

The endocrine system is made up of glands that make hormones.

The main glands that make up the human endocrine system are the hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid gland, parathyroid glands, adrenal glands, pineal gland, and reproductive glands, including the ovaries and testes. The pancreas is also part of this system and they are distributed throughout the body, connecting only through the circulatory system.
