Which graph BEST represents the data the scientist gathered?

answer: the correct answer for the fill in the blank is rods.

rods are the specialized photoreceptor cells that are present in the retina of human eye. they are responsible for vision in the night time ( also called scotopic vision). they have very low visual acuity and color distinguishing ability.

as they are responsible for vision in night time, therefore they are found predominantly in the nocturnal animals.

answer: the potential energy decreases from 379 j to 243 j

explanation:

for the law of conservation of energy, the total energy in a system must be conserved. the total energy of the system is given by the sum of kinetic (k) and potential (u) energy:

e = k + u

the total energy is e=675 j, and this does not change.

initially, the kinetic energy is k=296 j, so the potential energy is

at the end, the kinetic energy is k=432 j, so the potential energy is

so, we see that the potential energy has decreased from 379 j to 243 j.
