Refraction is the bending of light (it also happens with sound, water and other waves) as it passes from one transparent substance into another. This bending by refraction makes it possible for us to have lenses, magnifying glasses, prisms and rainbows. Even our eyes depend upon this bending of light. Hope this helps!
<span>The
kingdom, protista’s characteristics are that the organism (not a plant,
animal or fungus) are:
unicellular however some are multicellular like algae, are heterotrophic or
autotrophic, others lives in water while some live in moist areas or human body,
have a nucleus, cellular respiration is primarily aerobic, some are pathogenic
(e.g. causing Malaria) and reproduction is mitosis or meiosis. This kingdom
includes: Sacordinians – pseudopods (e.g. Amoeba, Foraminiferans<span>.)</span>, Zooflagellates – flagellates
(e.g. Trypanosoma gambiense),
Ciliaphorans – ciliates (e.g. paramecium) and Sporozoans (e.g. Plasmodium).</span>
