Answer:
I've got no idea what you're asking but my guess would probably be. . . C?
Correct answer: A). Light slows down as it moves from the air in to the water, resulting in refraction, or a bending of light.
This is because as light travels through one media it travels in a straight line, however, when it travels from one media to another media it bends, light path bends because of the phenomenon of refraction of light.
The refraction takes place only at the boundary, as the light continues to cross the boundary, it travels in a straight line.
So, as the portion of the pencil is submerged in water, the light will travel from water to air.
Hence it appears to be broken because of refraction of light. So, the correct answer would be option A.
3. Mechanical energy is the energy used by organisms to function and move.
3. The conservation of energy is the process in which organisms use up the energy in a cycle where nothing is wasted.
Answer:
c) melatonin
Explanation:
Melatonin its a hormone formed by the pineal gland, which regulates an individual wake cycles and sleep. Jetlag alters the hormone function leading to an alteration with the body clock of the persom.
Jetlag is a sleep disorder common to those who travel swiftly over several time zones. It is not a permanent sleep disorder. Its due to the body's internal clock lacking sync with cues generated in a different time zone, Cues may be due to light exposure and how often the person eats.
A basic factor on ones internal clock is sunlight. It controls the regulation of melatonin which aid in synchronizing cells in the body.
Specific cells of the tissue at retina moves the light signals the thypothalamus.
At night, the hypothalamus signal to the pineal gland to produce melatonin. At daylight hours, the reverse is the case.
Answer:
(B) Energy transfer between trophic levels is almost always less than 20% efficient.
Explanation:
The ultimate source of energy on the Earth is the Sun. The energy coming from the Sun is captured by green plants by the photosynthesis. During photosynthesis sun energy is fixed into chemical energy (carbohydrate). So, in an ecosystem energy flow is unidirectional (from sun to the green plants). The fixed chemical energy from green plants is transferred to the herbivores then to carnivores through food. When one organism eats another organisms, only 10 % of the energy present in the organism is transferred as a food for the next organism and a large amount of energy is lost as heat into the environment. Thus, energy keeps on decreasing when stored energy moves from producers to top consumers. Thus, less than 20% energy transfer limits the trophic levels in most of the ecosystem.
