Answer:
The adaptation in owl butterfly helps it to camouflage and also protects it from predators. Adaptations allow organisms to be better suited to their environment. So the answer is both 'A' and 'B' .
Explanation:
Owl butterfly use the concept of mimicry. It is a form of <em>adaptation</em> in which they fool the predator in thinking that they are owls and not butterflies. These butterflies have eyespots under their wings. By flashing them they look like the <em>eyes </em>of an owl.
Since owls feed on small animals, and small animals feed on butterflies, the owl butterflies protect themselves from predators. The small animals thinking that the butterfly is an owl, run away instead of coming closer. This way these small insects camouflage and protect themselves.
Answer:
The correct answer is: <em>C. Increased average lifespan to 78 in the US.</em>
Explanation:
Science has impacted human health by increasing the average lifespan to 78 in the US. Over the last couple of decades, the life expectancy of Americans has increased significantly than what it was 200 years ago. This can be attributed to:
1. Vaccinations- Since the invention of vaccinations, diseases such as tuberculosis, cholera and polio which were major causes of death 200 years ago have virtually been eradicated in the US.
2. Abundant and safer foods available- Commercial and large scale farming has made a wide variety of nutritious foods easier to obtain.
3. Improved sanitation- Safer drinking water, sewage treatment and stricter food inspection has significantly reduced the rate of illnesses due to poor hygiene and sanitation.
In these ways, science has impacted human health by increasing the average lifespan to 78 in the US.
Answer:
The correct answer to the question is: the level of liquid in Side A will rise.
Explanation:
- Sucrose is formed of two molecules of glucose but the membrane is impermeable to it.
- The given membrane is said to be permeable to water and glucose.
- Through a semi-permeable membrane, molecules tend to move from a region where its concentration is high to another region where its concentration is low by the process of diffusion until its concentration in the two regions becomes equal. This phenomenon is known as Osmosis.
- Concentration gradient of a molecule can be defined as the difference in the concentration of the molecule in two different regions separated by a semi-permeable membrane.
- Considering glucose, the concentration of glucose is low in side A (1M) and high in side B (2M), so it will tend to move from side B to side A down its concentration gradient.
- Considering sucrose, although its concentration is high in side A (2M) but low in side B (1M), it is unable to move as the membrane is impermeable to it.
- Water tend to move from a region where the concentration of solute is low (or water concentration is high) to a region where the concentration of solute is high (or water concentration is low).
- Due to the movement of glucose from side B to side A, the concentration of total solute concentration becomes high in side A as compared to side B. Therefore, water would move from side B to side A.
- Hence the level of liquid in Side A will rise after sometime.
