For example, if my goal is to eat healthy, I can choose the wholegrain cereal, but ____ is my reason for wanting to be healthy?

A weak electric current is created also in ordinary muscle ____ when they contract.

In the electric organ the muscle cells are connected in larger chunks, which makes the total current intensity larger ____ in ordinary muscles.

The fish varies the signals by changing the form of the electric field or the frequency of ____.

The system is only working ____ small distances, about one to two meters.

This is an advantage since the species using the signal system ____ live in large groups with several other species.

If many fish send out signals at the same time, the ____ range decreases the risk of interference.


Number 39

Creativity can ____ an effect on productivity.

Creativity leads some ____ to recognize problems that others do not see, but which may be very difficult.

Charles Darwin’s approach to the speciation problem is a good example of this;, he chose a very difficult and tangled problem, ____, which led him into a long period of data collection and deliberation.
