When animals and plants die, microorganisms, fungi, and insects are responsible for decomposition. these organisms also respire.

show an arrow on the diagram to indicate respiration by decomposers. scientists are concerned that melting glaciers are exposing long-frozen animals. when the ice melts, the animals thaw and begin to decompose. how will this affect the amount of co2 in the atmosphere?

More animals decomposing means more microorganisms and bacteria are respiring, therefore more co2 is being produced and contributes to increasing co2 levels.

Alicia is being tickled by her older sister. which divisions of the nervous system are receiving the signals from her sister’s f
Finger [1]

In this case, when Alicia is being tickled  by her older sister, the divisions of the nervous system which are responsible for receiving the signals from her sister’s fingers are called somatosensory cortex and anterior cingulated cortex nervous system. 

When you are touched lightly, the effect of having that ticklish sensation is caused by the analysis of two regions of the brain. For example, when our brain analyses the pressure of the touch, this is the work of the somatosensory cortex. On the other hand, as soon as something touches your skin, the signal sent from the skin's sensory receptors also passes through the anterior cingulated cortex.<span>This is where the pleasant feelings are governed. </span>

fgiga [73]

Answer:  Only some of the organisms survive and reproduce.

Natural selection is a process of differential survival and reproduction in which organisms bearing favorable phenotypic traits survive in changing environmental conditions. Therefore, only some of the organisms survive and reproduce which have suitable phenotypic trait. For example a population of beetle bearing two colors red and green. The green colored beetles mimic the color of grass will remain undetected by birds and those with red color easily observed and detected by birds. Hence, only green beetles are favored for survival over red beetles.

Step 8: Simulate an environment with equal amounts of insects and seeds, but no fruit. Which flock will be able to eat the most?
defon

The omnivorous flock will eat the most as it eats both insects and seeds. With the removal of fruit it will not be affected much.

The herbivorous flock will eat the least as it has the option to eat seeds only after the removal of fruit.

Explanation:

Let us take the example of Finches. Finches have many different species with different variations adaptable to conditions favorable as per availability of the type of food.

Lets say -

Species X and Y is provided with insects, seeds and fruit.

Species X - Omnivorous

Species Y - Herbivorous

The species X will be able to eat the most as it is an Omnivore.

The omnivorous flock will eat the most as it eats both insects and seeds. With the removal of fruit it will not be affected much.

Species Y will be able to eat the least as it is an herbivore.

The herbivorous flock will eat the least as it has the option to eat seeds only after the removal of fruit.
