what is natural selection?​

Answers

Answer 1
Natural selection is the process through which populations of living organisms adapt and change. Individuals in a population are naturally variable. This variation means that some individuals have traits better suited to the environment than others.

3. How far does a secondary wave travel in 10 minutes?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

1 to 8 km/sec- use this to work out 10 minutes

Answer:

Hi There!

Explanation:

1 to 8 km/sec

S-waves are transverse waves. Even though they are slower than P-waves, the S-waves move quickly. Typical S-wave propagation speeds are on the order of 1 to 8 km/sec. The lower value corresponds to the wave speed in loose, unconsolidated sediment, the higher value is near the base of Earth's mantle.

Explain how a chemical reaction occurs using the following terms
Reactant
Product
Activation energy
Bond
Endothermic
Exothermic
Rate

Answers

For a chemical reaction to occur, activation energy is required. Using the activation energy, reactants form products by breaking bonds which require energy. This type of reaction is an endothermic reaction. When products are formed, bonds are formed back by releasing energy. This type of reaction is an exothermic reaction. When activation energy is used for a reaction, a catalyst is not required. Adding a catalyst to the reaction causes the rate of reaction to increase.

A chemical reaction is a process where two or more reactants are converted to one or more products at a given rate, which requires a minimum amount of energy.

A reactant is a starting substance in a chemical reaction, whereas products are formed at the end of the reaction.

The rate of reaction is the velocity of the chemical reaction.

Activation energy refers to the minimum amount of energy required to activate reactants and thus start a chemical reaction.

The chemical reactions store/release energy by destroying/building chemical bonds between atoms/molecules.

Exothermic reactions release energy when the bonds are formed; whereas endothermic reactions consume energy.

In conclusion, a chemical reaction is a process where two or more reactants are converted to one or more products at a given rate, which requires energy. These reactions can be exothermic processes or endothermic processes.

Answers

Answer:

D / D / D / B / C

Explanation:

I just took the quick check myself, got all of them right :)

1 ) Top predators do not increase the number of prey, neither do they create imbalance or increase the food for other predator species. This is common knowledge, so ruling those out you are left with D. As they do in fact maintain the rest of the food chains populations.

2) A top predator in the ocean is a shark. Of course some might mistake a small whale to be a top predator, but sharks are actually known to hunt whales- the small ones anyway. A sea lion fish or a bird wouldn't exactly be a candidate for the top of the food chain either.

3) During seasonal flooding, to an area such as a river, water gets added to the existing pool, and many biotics and abiotics take this to their advantage. As a result- biodiversity actually increases during these times, but once season flooding is over it goes back to being the same.

4) The impact difference of seasonal flooding from damming a river is actually quite big. Seasonal flooding is.. well.. seasonal.. while damming for the most part is permanent, or will be there for much longer time span than season flooding is. Seasonal flooding increases biodiversity, but damming does not. This is becuase of the long term increase of water, the environment has to readapt, as plants that were once there drowned, and the known species most likely ran off to find better environment. Here it takes a while but eventually new abiotic and biotic species adapt and reclaim the dammed area of the environment.

5) Yes, a long term increase in the average temperature would disturb the ecosystem. Even if it's for a little bit, it's still something the environment wouldn't be used to, meaning the plants and animals there would have to learn to adapt for the time being- even if its temporary.

1: It maintains other populations

2: A shark

3: The biodiversity of the area increases

4: Seasonal flooding does not impact biodiversity for as long term as damming.

5: Yes, because such a change could have a large-scale impact on wildlife.

Octopuses belongs in class Cepholopoda. So, the correct option is (B).

What is Cephalopod?

A cephalopod is defined as any member of the molluscan class Cephalopoda such as a squid, octopus, cuttlefish, or nautilus where specifically marine animals with bilateral body symmetry, a prominent head, and arms modified from primitive molluscs or is characterized by a set of tangents foot. These animals use gills to breathe and are invertebrates (lack backbones).

Cephalopods are most notable for their many arms and soft bodies, while ancestral cephalopods are known mostly from their shells because they are well preserved as fossils. The octopus, squid, cuttlefish, and chambered nautilus are familiar representatives.

Thus, Octopuses belongs in class Cepholopoda. So, the correct option is (B).

How did the mutation change the hemoglobin protein?



ASAP

Answers

Answer: A  mutation Changes by its mistake in the DNA which results in the wrong amino acid being incorporated into a protein because of change, that single DNA sequence change, results in a different amino acid codon which the ribosome recognizes.

Explanation:

A mutation changes the instructions of a gene, which can also change the protein. Sometimes this change makes it so the protein can't do its job as well. And this is what happens with sickle cell anemia. A mutation in the hemoglobin gene changes the hemoglobin protein in a way that causes sickle cell anemia.

Distinguish between an antibiotic and a pathogen.​

Answers

An antibiotic is designed to kill bad cells to help aid illnesses. However, a pathogen is like a virus or a bacteria that can give a disease. Doctors observe pathogens on a atomic and cellular level to alienate the pathogens weaknesses and what does or doesn't kill it. An antibiotic is commonly used to kill these pathogens and prevent infections.

Basically, the big difference between an antibiotic and a pathogen, is that an antibiotic is used as a source of protection and a pathogen is a seperate living virus (disease). Both are key components of finding cures for harmful viruses and illnesses.

Which of these processes does not occur as part of the cell cycle in animal cells?

1) Mitochondrial DNA is released into the cytoplasm

2) Two identical copies of chromosomes are produced

3) Cell growth and mRNA synthesis occur

4) Nuclear DNA is replicated

Answers

The cell cycle is an essential process of growth and function. It has many phases which divide the genetic material and the cytoplasmic organelle equally into new cells. The cell cycle is crucial for survival.

Option 1) Mitochondrial DNA released into the cytoplasm is the process that does not occur in the animal cell cycle.

Cell cycle steps in animals can be explained as:

In the animal cell cycle during the synthesis step, the genetic material replicates to produce two identical chromosomal groups.

The cell divides to grow and the processes of central dogma including mRNA synthesis and protein formation occur.

Mitochondrial DNA does not get released in the cytoplasm but remains sustained in the mitochondria structure.

Therefore, mitochondrial DNA is not discharged into the cytoplasm.

Answers

Answer:

Type of milk

Explanation:

Independent variable is the variable that the experimenter changes or manipulates in an experiment. It is the variable that causes the dependent variable to change.

In this experiment, the hypothesis, which shows the relationship between the independent and dependent variable is stated as follows: IF the amount of protein is calculated in three different lipid levels of milk, THEN whole milk will have the highest level of protein. This shows that the amount of protein is dependent on the TYPE OF MILK used, which is the independent variable.
