A fermentation slurry containing Streptomyces kanamyceticus cells is filtered using a continuous rotary vacuum filter. 120 kg h^{- 1} slurry is fed to the filter; 1 kg slurry contains 60 g cell solids. To improve filtration rates, particles of diatomaceous-earth filter aid are added at a rate of 10 kg h^{- 1}. The concentration of kanamycin in the slurry is 0.05% by weight. Liquid filtrate is collected at a rate of 112 kg h^-1; the concentration of kanamycin in the filtrate is 0.045% (w/w). Filter cake containing cells and filter aid is continuously removed from the filter cloth.

 What percentage liquid is the filter cake?

Ichthyosaurs were aquatic dinosaurs. Fossils show us that they had dorsal fins and tails, as do fish, even though their closest relatives were terrestrial reptiles that had neither dorsal fins nor aquatic tails. The dorsal fins and tails of ichthyosaurs and fish are

Monkeys of South and Central America have prehensile tails, meaning that their tails can be used to grasp objects. The tails of African and Asian monkeys are not prehensile. Which discipline is most likely to provide an evolutionary explanation for how this difference in tails came about?
