Felipe believes that whenever the Moon is in the position that is shown from above (top view) in Diagram A, the Moon always look

s completely bright in the view from Earth, as shown in Diagram B. Is Felipe correct? If he is correct, explain why the Moon always looks bright from Earth in that position, and explain how he should show light on the Moon in Diagram A. If he is incorrect, explain how else the Moon can look when it is in that position.

Answer: Felipe is wrong.

Explanation:

In diagram A, we can see that the light comes from the left, it first impacts on the Earth, and then we have the Moon.

Now, you can model this situation with a flashlight (the Sun) a basketball (the Earth) and a tennis ball (the Moon)

When you point with the flashlight at the basketball, the basketball will look bright, but it will cast a shadow behind it. This shadow will cover the tennis ball, and almost no light will reach the tennis ball, so it will not look bright.

This phenomenon is called a lunar eclipse, and this happens when the Earth is in between the Sun and the Moon. When this happens, we see the moon a bit darker and more reddish.

When similar biological traits evolve in unrelated species due to similar environmental constraints, ____________ is said to hav
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Convergent Evolution

Explanation:

Convergent evolution occurs when two unrelated species that have no common ancestor evolve independently in order to adapt to a similar environmental constraints to ensure survival.

An example of convergent evolution can be seen in birds, bats, flight/wing insects. They all do not share a common ancestor, but have evolved, separately, a similar structure for flight.

Another example can be seen in dolphins and sharks. These two different species share similar physical characteristics that make them adapt well in marine habitat that helps them to predate .

When a bacterial cell is present in an environment where both lactose and glucose are present, the glucose will be metabolized f
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Option (A).

Explanation:

Lac operon system in bacteria explains the lactose metabolism in the cell. The first operon system was discovered by Jacob and Monod. Operon may be defined as the cluster of genes that are transcribed as a single RNA unit.

The bacteria uses glucose if glucose and lactose are present in the media. The bacterial cell can recognize the glucose presence as CAP-cAMP complex are required for the process of transcription and the complex level is low in the presence of glucose. This way bacteria turns off transcription for lactose genes even when the lactose is present.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

vovangra [49]
I think the correct answer would be the third option. Organisms that help break down dead organic material so it can be recycled into a usable form for other organisms are called decomposers and this would include some of the bacteria. Also, there is a number of bacteria that are capable of breaking down some of the harmful products like in recent studies there are bacteria that could dechlorinate the toxic PCB substance. Some bacteria, as well, lives in the human intestines which aids in the breaking down of the food into useful molecules. The third option is partially true since there are some bacteria like the cyanobacteria which produces oxygen but it does not contribute largely to the oxygen present in the atmosphere.
