Question
Chapter 4, Problem 4STP
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Biologists carry out various scientific studies on life and living organisms. Biologists focus on how an organism exist, how it is built, its function and growth. The biologist studies organisms and their relationship with the environment.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 4STP
Correct answer :
The correct answer is option (A) Beauty.
Explanation of Solution
Explanation/justification for the correct answer :
Option (A) - Beauty. Beauty is expressed through visual stimuli. Beauty can be expressed by using various parameters which may differ from one person to another. So, the correct answer is option (A).
Explanation for incorrect answer :
Option (B) - Chemical processes. In living organisms, a number of chemical processes are carried out. These processes are necessary and carried but from the cellular levels. Living organisms produce a number of chemicals which are studied by biologist.So, this is an incorrect answer.
Option (C) - Growth rate. A plant has a life cycle as it complete various stages of life. It develops from a seed and grows into a plant. The biologist study the growth rate of the plants using scientific observation and various results are utilized for different uses. So, this is an incorrect answer.
Option (D) - Reproduction. Reproduction is one of the main characteristics of living organisms studied by biologist. Biologists study different features of reproduction of plants and its effect on the ecosystem. So, this is an incorrect answer.

This is the first time that these bird flu viruses had been found in cows. In the United States, since 2022, USDA has reported HPAI A(H5N1) virus detections in more than 200 mammals." List and describe two mechanisms that could lead to this H5N1 influenza strain evolving to spread in human: Mechanisms 1: Mechanisms 2: For the mutations to results in a human epidered they would need to change how the virus interacts with the human host.
