Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete but the missing table of the question is attached in the document below.

To determine the percentage change in mass, the formula below is used

(mean mass after soaking - mean mass before soaking)/mean mass before soaking × 100

Thus, for the last concentration (200 g/dm³) that wasn't calculated

(175 - 183)/183 × 100 = -4.4

The reason for calculating the percentage change in mass of the onions <u>is to know if an increase in concentration of sodium chloride leads to an increase or decrease in size of onions. And from the result, the increase in concentration of the sodium chloride solution led a decrease in size of the onion (thus the reason for the negative sign of the percentage as the concentration increases)</u>.

Which of the following statements about carotenoids is NOT true? Carotenoids include red, orange, and yellow pigments. Carotenoi
kvv77 [185]

       The right answer to this question is option D. Carotenoids are categorized into two major divisions: carotenes and beta carotenes

       First, let's check option A, it says that the carotenoids include red, orange and yellow pigments, that's true, we can check that on lab for example, a vegetable that can be mentioned here are carrots, it has lots of this and it's very healthy too, and remember, there isn't a single animal that can produce carotenoids, so they need to grab it from nature.

       The second option, B. says that sometimes carotenoids are sometimes called as acessory pigments, that's true too, some studies consider them acessory pigments, so, they're not alone there, there are different kinds of pigments that can be on that plant, and they're also very important for the animals. Option C refers to beta carotene as the most abundant carotene in plants, that's true too, we can also find other kinds of carotenoids on plants, but this one as it's seen in lab, is the most common one. The last one, D, isn't true, the two major divisions are: Xanthophylls and Carotenoids, beta carotenoids are a type of carotenoids, not a different group.

Why do scientists consider vestigial structures (like a human appendix) evidence for evolution?
qaws [65]

Answer:

vestigial structures are considered evidence because scientists believe they are structures that were once used by a species ancestors but are not longer needed. these structures do not impair the organism in any way, so there is no need for evolution to get rid of them. for example, the human appendix is considered a vestigial structure.
