For the same insolation, order these regions from "highest absorption to lowest."

Insolation is the amount of solar energy that is incident on the surface of the earth. For the same insolation, water bodies tend to absorb the most heat as water has a high heat capacity and so do grasslands. Areas such as desserts and glaciers do not absorb high amounts of insolation due to which these areas exhibit extreme, inhabitable environments. The order becomes:
The Atlantic Ocean
A marshy wetland
Nevada desert
Polar ice caps

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Even though a motion picture actually consists of a series of still frames, we perceive them conveying continuous movement. This is an example of stroboscopic effect.

Explanation:

The stroboscopic effect is caused by aliasing which leads to different signals to become identical when sampled.

Why does the twilight zone of the ocean have the greatest variation in temperature?
Dafna11 [192]
A major study has shed new light on the dim layer of the ocean called the "twilight zone" -- where mysterious processes affect the ocean's ability to absorb and store carbon dioxide accumulating in our atmosphere.

In fruit flies, straight wings are dominant and curly wings are recessive. What will the generations look like? Assume that Mend
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The P generation has straight wings and curly wings.

The F1 generation has all straight wings.

The F2 generation has straight wings and curly wings.

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for wing shape in fruit flies. The allele for straight wings (S) is dominant over the allele for curly wings (s). This means that allele "S" will mask the phenotypic expression of allele "s" in a heterozygous state.

According to the question, the cross follows all Mendel's method of crossing two true breeding parents with opposite traits. Hence, the parent generation (P generation) will be between a truebreeding straight wings parent (SS) and a truebreeding curly wings parent (ss). (See attached image for full cross).

Since the straight wing allele (S) is dominant, all the F1 offsprings  will possess straight wings with the genotype: Ss, which is heterozygous.

If this F1 offsprings are self-crossed i.e. Ss × Ss, four possible offsprings in the phenotypic ratio 3 straight wings : 1 curly wing will be produced in the F2 generation. The offsprings will possess the following genotypes: SS, Ss, Ss, and ss.

Offsprings SS, Ss, and Ss will all be phenotypically straight-winged

Offsprings ss will be phenotypically curly-winged.

In overall, this means that P generation has both straight and curly wings (SS and ss), F1 generation has only straight wings (Ss), F2 generation has both straight and curly wings (SS, Ss and ss).
