Answer:

Gomphosis

Explanation:

Fibrous Joints:

Fibrous joints are immovable or fixed joints because they have the characteristic that they do not move. These joints have collagen which is a white connective tissue and it help in connection with other tissues.

Fibrous joints are mainly three types called sutures, gomphosis and syndesmosis.

Suture:

Suture is one of the fibrous tissue which only present in skull called cranal suture. There is tiny amount of movement present it sutures for elasticity of skull.

Gomphosis:

Gomphosis is found in the tooth which bind tooth with tooth socket bone by periodontal ligament. This joint is completely immovable.

*Peridontal ligament is the fibrous tissue which is present between tooth and tooth socket.

Syndesmosis:

Syndesmosis is found between tibia and fibula joint which is joined or connected by connective tissue (ligament). This fibrous joint is slightly moveable.

If hunted and sold, animals will have a lower chance of reproducing apart from not being there themselves, decreasing their population.

Having less species inhabiting an area, means less food for some predators. Which means that competition will occur among preators since food will be scarce.

Sheila weighs 60 kg and is riding a bike. Her momentum on the bike is 340 kg • m/s. The bike hits a rock, which stops it complet

mina [271]

Answer:

5.7 m/s

Explanation:

The computation of Sheila 's velocity right after she gets thrown out of the bike is shown below:

1) The Physical principle: conservation of momentum.

If there is no net external force operating on a system, so the system's total momentum is conserved

The momentum, p, is a vector magnitude that is determined as the product of the mass by the velocity:

P = mv.

2) Taking into account therefore that there is no net force on the device, Sheila and the momentum of the bike are the identical pre and post collision.

Based on this, the calculation is as follows

Momentum before the collision:

$P_1 = (mass\ of\ Sheila + mass\ of\ the\ bike) \times velocity$

$P_1 = (60kg + m) \times v_1$

= 340 kg m/s

Now Momentum after the collision:

$P_2 = mass\ of\ sheila \times velocity\ of\ Sheila + mass\ of\ the\ bike \times velocity\ of\ the\ bike$

$P_2 = 60kg \times v_2 + m \times 0 = 60kg \times v_2$

$P_1 = P_2$

$= (60kg + m) \times v_1$

$= 60kg \times v_2$

$= 340 kg .\ m/s$

$= 60kg \times v_2$

$v_2 = \frac{340\ kg .\ m/s }{60\ kg}$

= 5.7 m/s

<h2>Evolution of Beetle Population. </h2>

Explanation:

Natural selection is the reproduction of people because of contrasts in phenotype and the differential survival.
It is a key system of development, the adjustment in the heritable qualities normal for a populace over ages.
Variety exists inside all populaces of organisms.For model, tree frogs are in some cases eaten by<em> snakes and birds.</em> This clarifies the appropriation of Gray and Green Tree frogs.
The transformation caused qualities with parents for a quality for dark colored hue and for the bright green coloration. That would make the qualities for <em>darker creepy crawlies</em> progressively visit in the populace.
