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.

c. destroys damaged red blood cells
d. stores vitamin D
e. forms urea

The right answer is: B. </span>does all of these

*The liver plays a role in the metabolism of carbohydrates:- gluconeogenesis (manufacture of a new glucose molecule from a non-carbohydrate molecule);- glycogenolysis (release of glucose from glycogen) under the effect of glucagon;- gluconeogenesis (storage of glucose in the form of glycogen) under the effect of insulin
*It stores fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, K and E) and glycogen.*It converts ammonia to urea (detoxification)<span>*It recycles substances from the senescent red blood cells.</span>

In some areas of Florida, manatees gather near spring waters during cold weather because the temperature of the springs is alway
Alexxx [7]
From the data, the manatee population obviously increased after the regulations went into affect  and the deaths due to watercraft reduced from 25 to 8 after the regulations were put into effect. The population increased by 165% from 1980=-2010 and the drop in deaths due to watercraft decreased by 
68%.So this is not a direct correlation but at least it shows that the watercraft deaths decreased significantly. Since the population increased at a greater rate then it may be that more females were spared so could mate and give birth to that many more manatees.

Durng translation, polypeptide/protein synthesis continues until what happens?
Basile [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

The process of translation, that is, synthesis of proteins takes place until the occurrence of the termination process. The termination takes place when the ribosome encounters a stop codon. These are UAG, UAA, and UGA. As there are no molecules of tRNA, which can identify these codons, the ribosome determines that the process of protein synthesis is complete. The formed protein then get discharged and the complex of translation move away from each other.

Based on the information in the graph, what is the best conclusion to draw
Sever21 [200]

The correct answer is C. The birthrate is higher than the death rate.

Explanation

The graph is about the growth of the world population, this shows the population growth of the world, Asia, Africa, Europe, United States, Canada and Greenland, Mexico, Central America, Caribbean Islands, and South America, and Oceania (Australia and nearby islands in the Pacific). This graph covers the time from 1950 to 2050 divided into decades. In the specific case of Africa in 1950 it had a population of close to 300 million people. Subsequently, in 2010 the population of Africa was close to 1 billion people and the projection for the year 2050 is 2 billion people. According to this, it can be concluded that the birth rate is higher than the death rate because the population has a growth trend, which indicates that more people are born than die.
