In recent years, scientists have collected data on populations of Adelie and Gentoo penguins. Adelie penguins are ice dependent.

They rely on sea ice as a foraging platform for feeding on prey such a krill and fish, while Gentoo penguins are considered ice-intolerant. How does the data in the graph support or refute the theory of global climate change?
a. The graph refutes this theory, as it shows increases in Adelie and Gentoo penguins.

b. The graph supports this theory, as it shows that penguin populations are fluctuating in number.

c. The graph supports this theory, as it shows a gradual decline in populations of Adelie penguins.

d. The graph refutes this theory, because it does not provide any information on global temperatures.

Answer:

C. The graph supports this theory, as it shows a gradual decline in populations of Adelie penguins.

Explanation:

Since Adelie penguins depend on ice to survive, a decline of ice would spell chaos for their survival. And coupled with the fact global warming means a bigger fluctuation of temperatures and a faster melting of ice on Earth, that would line up with the data of the decreasing Adelie penguins.

Hope this helped!

Ainat [17]
Firstly, start by doing Punnett squares for each of the characteristics. Attached are the three Punnet squares, made by me, as they should look in end.

For each of the Punnet squares, one characteristic each, we find that half of the offspring will be heterozygous for that characteristic.
Therefore, according to the product rule, you should now multiply the quantity of heterozygous for each characteristic and then obtain the total part of the offspring that's fully heterozygous.

\frac{1}{2}Ss×\frac{1}{2}Ll×\frac{1}{2}Rr=\frac{1}{8}SsLlRr

Total offspring×\frac{1}{8}=10
There is 10 plants in the total offspring that are heterozygous for all the considered three genes.

Answer:

The role of carbon in biological systems is to allow the formation of organic molecules, in addition to providing energy for living beings.

Explanation:

Carbon is the fourth most abundant element on earth and one of the main elements of the viological systems, and its presence is essential for life on the planet to be maintained.

Carbon is necessary for all living beings, without exception. This is because it is used in the construction of organic molecules without which no living thing can survive, in addition to providing energy when it participates in sugar molecules, such as carbohydrates.
