Answer:

Focal length is 6.67 cm.

Explanation:

Object distance, u, from the lens = 10 cm

Image distance, v, to the lens = 10 cm + 10 cm

                                                 =  20 cm

Apply the lens formula to determine the focal length, f, of the lens.

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{v}

 = \frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{20}

    = \frac{2 + 1}{20}

\frac{1}{f}  = \frac{3}{20}

Find the inverse of both sides, so that;

f = \frac{20}{3}

  = 6.67

f = 6.67 cm

The focal length of the lens is 6.67 cm.

Fungi are necessary evil to humanity.Discuss the pros and cons of this assertion
Flura [38]

Answer:

Fungi are eukaryotic organisms belonging to the kingdom fungi that are very widespread in most Earth habitats where they are primarily involved in recycling of nutrients and the decomposition of organic matter such that they aid in completing the food web and enabling the balanced ecosystem

In humans, fungi have the harmful effect of causing illnesses such as asthma, eye infections and are likely associated to alzheimer's disease as well as several other serious and some potentially lethal health conditions

However, fungi are known to aid humanity in such aspects including;

Natural pesticides

Agriculture

Food production

Medicine

Explanation:

Natural pesticides

Fungi which are pathogen of specific insect pest aid in the minimization of the harmful effect of pests on food crops such that microbial fungi pesticides can be sourced in the market

Agriculture

Fungi are necessary for the survival and growth of up to 80% of all grasses and trees

Food production

Fungi are well known for their role in bread, bear, and wine making and fungi are also used to ripen cheese

Medicine

Fungi are also used in the making of medicinal drugs such as penicillin G. Fungi and cyclosporine

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

C.The two species do not breed in the same area, so they are reproductively isolated by allopatry.

Explanation:

Allopatry means that these two species are geographically separated during the breeding season, so they are reproductively isolated.

Allopatric speciation is a form of speciation (creation of new species) that occurs as a result of geographic isolation. This means that a part of population becomes physically separated from the initial main population. There is no gene flow between these two populations and as a result the two populations  reach a high level  of genetic divergence. They can no longer interbreed which means they become two different species (speciation).

Mila [183]

Answer:

Absorption is the transformation of radiant power to another type of energy, usually heat, by interaction with matter. The transmittance t of a medium is defined by the ratio of transmitted radiant power to incident radiant power.

Compare the physical and chemical properties of a compound to those of the elements of which it is composed
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.It can be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions. Example: water H_2O

2H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2H_2(g+O_2(g)

Physical property is defined as the property of a substance which becomes evident during physical changes. Water is liquid at room temperature whereas hydrogen and oxygen are gases at room temperature.

Chemical property is defined as the property of a substance which becomes evident during chemical changes. Water reacts with metals to form bases, hydrogen reacts with metals to form hydrides and oxygen reacts with metals to form oxides.
