The correct answers are options:
It insulates the complex in the winter.
It provides passive cooling in the summer.
The Fusionpolis is a building present in the Singapore. The building is covered by the spine vegetation. The spine vegetation is well known for the insulation against the heat, this makes them best for maintaining the temperature in the building. These spines provide the insulation in the winters, when the outside atmosphere is too cold, and in summers, the transpiration of the spines help in cooling down the temperature of the building.
The correct answer is "they allow traffic to proceed at the speed limit".
First of all, letter B is incorrect as the main function of the speed humps is not to bring harm to the motorists but to ensure the safety of the flow of the traffic. Letter A is correct as speed humps makes the motorists slow down on purpose for the traffic to proceed at a certain speed limit.
Answer:
The correct option is D. 18 year old male
Explanation:
The epiphyseal plate can be described as a disc of cartilage that is required for the growth of bones. The epiphyseal plates get fused in females at a very early age, most probably between the ages of 13 to 15. In males, the epiphyseal plates fuse a litter later at about 15 to 18 years.
Hence, the presence of epiphyseal plates in the femur would prove that it was present in an 18-year-old male.
All the other options would be false because they won't contain an epiphyseal plate.
Answer:
D. A population with high genetic biodiversity is better able to respond to environmental stressors.
Explanation:
The genetic biodiversity of a species is the diversity of alleles that it possesses in its genetic pool. For a given gene, a population can have one or more alleles; and the more alleles the population has, it will be more diverse. Under normal conditions (without stress), the alleles that are present in high frequency in a population, are those that best respond to the environment where the population occurs. However, if some environmental condition changes and some type of environmental stress emerge (ie drought), it is possible that these alleles no longer respond equally effectively and then, it is possible that the alleles that on normal conditions occur with low frequency, are more adequate to face the stress. A population with fewer alleles (less genetic diversity) has terefore fewer options to deal with environmental stressors and<u> a population with high genetic biodiversity</u> will do this better.
<span>Hippocrates believed that there are four humors in human body which need balance for a healthy being. These were:
Blood, phlegm, yellow bile, and black bile.</span>
Galen expanded the idea of the humors and introduced four temperaments which were these:
choleric (hot / dry), melancholic (cold / dry), sanguine (warm / moist), and phlegmatic (cold / moist).
Another expansion Galen did was that he gave each humor/temperament physical and psychological qualities and said that even the food items have an association with the certain humor, those foods can effect certain humor in certain ways.
