It is true. The Mauna Kea Silversword is highly endangered flowering plant endemic which is Hawaii island. Mauna Kea silversword is a member of the silversword alliance. The group has fifty species in the three genera of endemic Hawaii islands.
It is an erect, monocarpic single-stemmed, basically wordy herb, spirally arranged. The leaves are being covered with a dense layer of long silvery hairs, the leaves have essential ability to store water as a gel in the intracellular spaces whereby the other plants leaves they contain air in them.

Mila [183]

Answer:

The green buble

Explanation:

Antibiotics are added to the animal feed or drinking water of cattle, hogs, poultry and other food-producing animals to help them gain weight faster or use less food to gain weight.

Because all uses of antimicrobial drugs, animals contribute to the development of antimicrobial resistance, it is important to use these drugs only when medically necessary.

the production (e.g. growth enhancement) purposes as well as for the treatment, control or prevention of animal diseases. Even today, it is not entirely understood how these drugs make animals grow faster. The drugs are primarily added to feed, although they are sometimes added to the animals’ drinking water.

In 1665, a scientist named Robert Hooke examined a thin piece of cork through a microscope. The drawing below represents what he
-Dominant- [34]

The Englishman Robert Hooke (18th July 1635 - 3rd March 1703) was an architect, natural philosopher and brilliant scientist, best known for his law of elasticity (Hooke's law), his book Micrographia, published in 1665 and for first applying the word "cell" to describe the basic unit of life. It is also less well known that there is substantial evidence that Hooke developed the spring watch escapement, independently of and some fifteen years before Huygens, who is credited for this invention. Hooke also is recognised for his work on gravity, and his work as an architect and surveyor.


Hooke's Micrographia

Here, we focus on his pioneering work using the microscope to document observations of a variety of samples in his book Micrographia, published in September 1665.


Hooke began his famed career by initially studying at Wadham College, Oxford, where he worked closely under John Wilkins with other contemporaries, including Thomas Willis and Robert Boyle, for whom he built the vacuum pumps used in Boyle's gas law experiments. He also built some of the earliest telescopes, observing the rotations of Mars and Jupiter, and, based on his observations of fossils, was an early proponent of biological evolution. If that wasn't enough, he investigated the phenomenon of refraction, deducing the wave theory of light, and was the first to suggest that matter expands when heated and that air is made of small particles separated by relatively large distances, yet curiously Robert Hooke is somewhat overlooked in his contributions to science, perhaps as there were many people who wrote of Hooke as a difficult personality, being described as of "cynical temperament" and of "caustic tongue". There were also disputes with fellow scientists, including disputes with Isaac Newton over credit for work on gravitation and the planets. Though it must be remembered that Hooke lived at a time of immense scientific progress and discovery and none of the above diminish Hooke'

The correct answer is C. Males have a y and X chromosome making it easier for them to inherit diseases and mutations. Females have two X chromosomes which means that most of the time, they only carry the mutation rather than have symptoms such as color blindness. I hope this helped!
