This practice of borrowing designs from nature is called biomimicry. What is 'biomimicry'?

  7. Read the passage and answer the question. The old bridge was finally declared unsafe last spring. Engineers proposed two options: repair it at a cost of Rs 2 crore, which would make it safe for another fifteen years, or replace it with a new concrete bridge costing Rs 5 crore that would last at least fifty years. After a long debate, the council chose the new bridge, arguing that it would prove cheaper in the long run. Over fifty years, roughly how would the costs compare if the old bridge were repaired every fifteen years?
