The question is incomplete as it does not have the tiles which has been presented in the attachment.
Explanation:
Natural selection is the mechanism by which the species evolve. The species evolve under the influence of the natural pressure due to which the species try to hit and trial method of the adaptive trait. The trait which increases the fitness of a species is passed on to the next generation and the trait becomes established in a population.
This can be observed in the following scenario
1. The hawks predate on the rabbit species with white fur easily as they can be seen from the sky easily.
2. This acts as a pressure on the white rabbits as a result of which the white rabbits to hide themselves mutate and change the colour of the fur from white to brown or tan.
3. The founder effect will eliminate the white fur population from the whole population
4. The population with brown fur will increase with time and the trait will become a permanent trait.
Answer:
Explanation:
In a lake, oxygenic phototrophs produce new organic material as well as O₂. If primary production rates are very high, the resultant excessive organic matter production can lead to bottom-water O₂ depletion from respiration and the development of anoxic conditions. This in turn stimulates anaerobic metabolisms, including anaerobic respirations and fermentations.
Organic matter that is not consumed in surface layers sinks to the depths and is decomposed by anaerobes.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Mutualism is a relationship between two parties where <em>both parties </em>are benefited.
This means the answer would be C- "Ants feed on aphid wastes and protect the aphids from predators."
The <em>ants</em> benefit from a feeding source.
The <em>aphids</em> benefit from predator defense.
<u>In answer C, both parties are benefited, so this is mutualism!</u>
Answer;
The process of respiration is essential in the oxygen/carbon dioxide cycle. Respiration removes oxygen from the atmosphere and produces and releases carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
Explanation;
Respiration is one of the natural process that adds carbon dioxide to the atmosphere and at the same time remove or decrease the amount of oxygen.
Both plants and animals use respiration process to generate energy in form of ATP that is needed for basic functions such a growth and movement. During this process, nutrients such as glucose are combined with oxygen to yield energy in form of ATP, and also water and carbon dioxide as by-products.
Unlike photosynthesis, which uses carbon dioxide and water to yield nutrients (simple sugars) and oxygen gas, respiration uses oxygen and nutrients, to yield carbon dioxide and water, we can therefore they are antagonistic processes.
<span>According to the ipat model, technology that enhances our acquisition of minerals, fossil fuels, timber, and ocean fish increase environmental impact.
IPAT is a model or equation which expresses that
I (stands for Environmental impact) is the product of three factors: P (stands for population), A (is affluence) and T ( for Technology).
IPAT can be written as (I=PAT) or I = pxAxT</span>
