Read this passage about global fishing. Global consumption of large fish has lead to an exploitation of fish populations. Overfi

shing has lead to a decline in the populations of many species of large fish including North East Arctic Cod. The graph below shows the decline in the cod population. mc026-1.jpg As the human population grows and countries continue to develop, the demand for large fish has been steadily increasing. Unfortunately, the average size of the cod has decreased because the fishing nets were designed to catch the large fish and the smaller individuals could escape more easily. What is most likely happening to the genetic variation of the population of North East Arctic Cod? The genetic variation in the population is increasing due to selective pressure. The genetic variation in the population is decreasing due to selective pressure. The genetic variation in the population is increasing due to gene flow. The genetic variation in the population is decreasing due to gene flow.

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is "True".

Explanation:

The zebra mussel is a small animal that lives near freshwater zones, just like the ones present at the Hudson River of New York. In this place is where zebra mussel was first detected in May 1991. However, it had been traced that zebra mussel is originally native to the Black and Caspian Seas of Asia. It is believed that zebra mussel arrived to New York in the mid-1980s in the ballast water of ocean-going ships that came from Europe.

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The herbivory by the white-tailed deer

Explanation:

The independent variable can be defined as the variable that who's values do not depend on those of another.

The independent variable in this case is the herbivory by the white-tailed deer which is divided into two categories.

The dependent variables is the response of the corn to the independent variable which are measurements to be taken as shown in the question; the height of the corn plants and the number of ears or corn each plant produces.

Water is essential for survival. It is important to understand the factors that affect water balance and the best sources to hel
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

2-Water helps maintain body temperature.

3-Diuretics like alcohol and some medications can cause the body to lose water.

Explanation:

Dehydration occurs when the amount of what loss is more than the amount taken. And we lose water in many ways therefore taking water on a regular basis is important to replace the fluids lost and keep the body functioning.

Water Maintains the Body Temperature

During high temperature, the body cools itself naturally by sweating and by sweating a large amount of water is lost. So when enough water is not taken, there will be less production of sweating thereby causing the body's temperature to rise.

Alcohol Causes Water Loss

Taking excess alcohol can result to dehydration because the hormone called anti-diuretic (while alcohol is diuretic) is used to reabsorb water by the body and alcohol in the body depletes the production of this hormone. The body loses more water than normal with a reduced amount of anti-diuretic in the body. Excessive intake of alcohol can also cause vomiting, which depletes the body of fluids and can cause further dehydration.

A yellow female Labrador retriever was mated with a brown male. Half of the puppies were brown, and half were yellow. Explain ho
Over [174]

Answer:

The first male was bb Ee, and the second male was bb EE.

Explanation:

In Labradors coat colour is controlled by two genes. Suppose the two genes are B and E. B produces black colour and recessive form bb gives brown colour. Gene E is epistatic over gene B in its recessive form which means that ee will produce yellow colour regardless of the genotype present of B gene.

The first case is possible if the female lab is bbee (yellow) and the male lab is bbEe (brown):

bbee X bbEe

        bE      be

be  bbEe    bbee

So half of the offspring will be brown (bbEe) and half of them will be yellow (bbee)

The second case is possible if the same female bbee mates with a brown male of different genotype which can be bbEE:

bbee X bbEE

         bE

be   bbEe

So all offspring will be brown (bbEe)

Hence, the first male was bbEe and the second male was bbEE.
