The following describes a lab on natural selection. the materials needed for this lab included a bowl of toothpicks, a bowl of dried macaroni, a spoon, a forceps, a binder clip, a scissors, a plastic cup and a timing device. the procedure for this lab was performed as follows: the number of toothpicks able to be consumed (picked up) in a 30 second period by the spoon was recorded. this trial was repeated a total of three times, then the spoon’s ability to consume macaroni for a period of 30 seconds was recorded for three trials. this procedure was repeated with each bird beak. averages were calculated for each beak’s ability to consume each food item. what are the possible conclusions or outcomes one could reach from this experiment? select all that apply. the spoon is best used for consuming macaroni over toothpicks. the higher the temperature, the better the forceps work at collecting food. the scissors are better at collecting than consuming. the mass of the food consumed is less than what they need to survive. the plastic cup represents the stomach of the bird.

The spoon is best used for consuming macaroni over toothpicks.

Explanation:

As you can see, by reading the text shown in the question above, the experiment is comparing the amount of toothpicks and the amount of pasta a spoon can take in 30 seconds. If there is such a comparison, it is probably because the aim of the experiment is to determine if the spoon is more efficient for picking noodles or toothpicks, so the result of the experiment should expose the answer to this issue.

Accordingly, we can conclude that, among the options given in the question below, the only one that reveals a possible result for this experiment is "The spoon is best used to consume macaroni instead of toothpicks."

a motor homunculus represents a map of brain areas dedicated to motor processing for different anatomical divisions of the body.

homunculus represents the importance of various parts of your body as seen by your brain. as a result, they take up a lot of brain space. although the cortical homunculus is a curiosity, penfield's work in mapping the brain's relationship to the body was invaluable.

step 1: nitrogen fixation- conversion of atmospheric no₂ into forms useful to plants by lightning, bacteria, and cyanobacteria.

step 2: nitrification-process of converting ammonia to nitrite or nitrate.

step 3: assimilation-plant roots absorb new form of nitrogen.

step 4: ammonification-conversion of organic nitrogen to ammonia by bacteria involved in decomposition.

step 5: denitrification-bacteria turns the decomposed matter back into n₂o, which is released into atmosphere; repeat cycle.
