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.

How are decomposers positioned in a food web?
vampirchik [111]

The answer is A, they are connected to all levels.

Decomposers in a food web, such as bacteria or fungi, mainly get their nutrient by decomposing dead organic matter to release carbon dioxide (when they respire)to the air for producers (which are mainly plants).

The following basic food chain (which forms food web when many of these are connected) may help you understand better:

Producer→primary consumer→secondary consumer→tertiary consumer

Since all levels in a food web is formed from organic matter (including plants and animals), decomposers feed on them to get their nutrient, so they're actually connect to all levels.

B is not correct because secondary consumers are the carnivores, which are animals that consume other animals for food and nutrient.

C is not correct because primary consumers are herbivores, which are animals that consume plants (or producers) for food.

D is not correct because autotrophs are organisms that make their own food by themselves, which are usually by photosynthesis (the process to make glucose from light energy). They're usually green plants, and the "producers" from a food web.

How did the Kepler describe the planets orbits d
yuradex [85]

Answer:

Explanation:

The elliptical orbits of planets were indicated by calculations of the orbit of Mars. From this, Kepler inferred that other bodies in the Solar System, including those farther away from the Sun, also have elliptical orbits. The second law helps to establish that when a planet is closer to the Sun, it travels faster.
