Explanation:

During summer when the surrounding temperature is high, we lose water in the form of sweat, direct evaporation considerably. Hence kidneys retain water for maintaining fluidity of the blood and less urine is formed.

But during winter, the surrounding temperature will be very low. There will not be any sweating, no evaporation losses. Moreover to keep the body temperature constant, the blood capillaries in the skin get constricted and the blood pressure is increased. The result is that our body gets warmed up. In order to maintain the blood pressure normal, the excess water along with the wastes is excreted mostly in the form of urine. This is the reason for more urine out put and frequent urination under very cool conditions and in winter.

Josephine works in a biology lab at UCLA and they have recently come up with a magic strain of bacteria that converts cellulose

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Yes, I think this scheme can work. The chippings will provide enough ethanol to power the mower. The mover requires up to 15% ethanol. As he is distilling it to 95% ethanol, it would be more than enough for the mower to work. And also he can use the remaining ethanol for other purposes like powering Joe’s car or to create alcoholic beverages to drink when Joe’s friends come over to watch UCLA football games on Saturday afternoons.
