Answer:
The answer is:
D. the radiation of herbivores such as grazing animals
Explanation:
Oligocene and Miocene Epochs:
- The Oligocene epoch is characterized by temperate and subtropical climatic conditions which favored the expansion of grasses and reduced forest cover.
- The Miocene epoch, which succeeded the Oligocene era, is attributed to changes in global circulation due to global warming of the climate followed by global cooling towards the end.
The Oligocence and Miocene epoch are both attributed to the expansion of grasslands and savannah. Both eras marked rapid and drastic evolutionary changes in grazing mammals and herbivores. Diverse groups of grazing mammals lived throughout these eras. For example, the largest herbivore and land mammal of all time, <em>Indricotherium</em> (a sort of giant hornless rhinoceros), was present in the Oligocene era.
Similarly, the Oligocene era in North America favored the rapid radiation of primitive horses.
Answer:
I am willing to be wrong, but based on my understanding of forces it is the pineapple and the baseball
Explanation:
The pineapple has unbalanced forces between gravity and the table
The baseball has unbalanced forces with the propulsion used to move it forward
It may also be the bird but I understood that as net flight force between gravity and lift
The correct answer is option B. The scientists were studying if the mud snails can reproduce both sexually and asexually. The characteristics in the study included parameters such as the mating season, number of offspring, effect of environmental stress conditions and lack of mates. Out of all the parameters being studied can affect asexual reproduction in the mud snail but lack or presence of mates is a parameter required to be studied to determine the mode of reproduction i.e. sexual or asexual because need for mates or mate dependent reproduction occurs in case of sexual reproduction.
