Answer:

No one can see in total darkness. Fortunately, there’s almost always some light available. Even if it’s only dim starlight, that’s enough for your eyes to detect. What’s truly amazing is how little light is required for you to see.

Human eyes have two main features that help us see better in low light: the pupil’s ability to change size, and the eye’s two types of light-sensing cells.

Opening up to let in more light

Your pupils are the black areas at the front of your eyes that let light enter. They look black because the light that reaches them is absorbed inside the eyeball. It’s then converted by your brain into your perceptions of the world.

You’ve probably noticed that pupils can change size in response to light. Outside on a bright sunny day, your pupils become very small. This lets less light into the eye since there’s plenty available

Leto [7]

Answer:

Diversity of the community = 2.097

Explanation:

Given:

Number of pitch pines = 134

Number of douglas firs = 24

Number of red pines = 53

Find:

Diversity of the community

Computation:

Simpson's diversity index = N(N-1)/Σn(n-1)

Particular              n n(n-1)

Pitch pine         134       17822

Douglas firs       24 552

Red pine            53  2756

Total       N=211 21130

So,

D= [211(211-1)] / 21130

D = 2.097

Diversity of the community = 2.097
