Answer:  

A lesion in the Broca's area of the brain would most likely result in a disruption of language comprehension and expression.

Explanation:

There are two parts of the brain that are linked to speech.

  • Wernicke's area also called Wernicke's speech area and
  • Broca's area.

Wernicke's Area is wired for the comprehension of written and spoken language while Broca's area adapted for in the production of language.

Broca's area, which is located in the frontal lobe of the brain, is connected to the production of speech.

A recent study showed that it also plays a significant role in the comprehension of language. Working memory and the Broca's area both function simultaneously to allow a person to express themselves verbally.

d1i1m1o1n [39]

The correct answer is B. The percentage of crabs with large claws would increase.

Explanation:

Crabs with large claws have more chances to survive and reproduce; this biological advantage will make most of these crabs to successfully reproduce through generations and pass this feature to their offspring. On the opposite, crabs with smaller pincers do not have this reproductive or survival advantage, this implies many crabs with small pincers will not survive a long time or will not reproduce, and therefore this trait will not past to their offspring. Moreover, this situation will cause after many generations the large claws trait prevails, while the small claws trait decreases because crabs with larger claws are more suitable. According to this, it is expected the percentage of crabs with large claws would increase.

astra-53 [7]
Since shrimp pray on photosynthetic organisms, they are dependant on their prey's location.
The photosynthetic organisms need sunlight in order to produce energy, so they then to live in shallow waters, because the sunlight penetrates only a small upper layer of the water's surface.
So, shrimp live in shallow waters because their pray can only live there.
