Answer:

c. it states that organism with beneficial traits have a better chance of surviving to reproductive age

Explanation:

The theory of natural selection is an explanation of the meaning of the life of species. The basis of the theory of natural selection is evolution, according to which every generation living beings adapt to the environment in which they live. Organisms that fail to evolve and adapt tend toward extinction. Thus, the letter (C) that explains that organisms with beneficial traits are more likely to reach adulthood and reproduce is correct. For example, the neck of giraffes has grown longer each generation so that this animal can feed on leaves in tall trees. This is considered an evolutionary adaptation. The organism of these animals has adapted to the conditions of the environment in which giraffes live and this has increased the chances of survival and reproduction. Other animals that had a less adapted organism may have disappeared. Thus, the beneficial characteristics of an organism are associated with the evolution of species and their existence.

Cloud [144]

Answer:

a. different shape (e.g. flat or ribbon shaped).

d. larger internal surface area of the lungs.

Explanation:

Amphibians are cold blooded animals. They have a low rate of metabolism . Amphibians are located most where there is water or in moist environment because of their skin and how important it is to keep their skin moist.

Amphibians breathe through their skin and this can be called cutaneous respiration. Their lungs are not well developed therefore they undergo a very slow diffusion of oxygen through their blood.

For Amphibians that are larger than bull frogs, they obtain a very sufficient rate of diffusion of gases due to the following reasons:

a. Internal surface area of the lungs: Amphibians that are larger than bull frogs tend to have a more developed respiratory organs which means there lungs have a larger surface area and they are well developed.

b. They have a different body shape: Amphibians larger than bull frogs could have a flat or ribbon shape and their body shapes make it easier for respiratory gases like oxygen to permeate or enter their skin easily.

Explain how the data from your experiments showed that cyanide was used to poison Jared, and that 2-deoxyglucose, arsenic and ol
Aliun [14]

The question is incomplete as the background of the case and symptoms of Jarod is not provided, however, the missing data required for the question is as follows:

Jared was investigating a drug cartel and ate a meal with one of the suspects. After the meal, he had trouble breathing and felt weak and dizzy. Jared may have been poisoned. He is being taken to the CIA hospital for treatment. You are a medical toxologist working for the CIA. It is your job to find out what poison was given to Jared and try to save his life. Patient: Jared Sondheim Age: 32 Occupation: CIA Agent Symptoms: Muscle Weakness Shortness of Breath Dizziness. Jared has arrived at the hospital! It is your job to find out what toxin was used to poison Jared. You can then give him the correct antidote to save Jared's life.

Answer:

Poisning by 2-deoxyglucose syops the glycolysis process which leads to cardiovascular and respiratory symptoms. Due to property of inhibiting the enzyme reqquired for glycolysis, glucokinase. So, there is no ATP production takes place.

Arsenic poisoning inhibits the second stae of cellular respiration, the Krebs cycle which leads to pyruvate accumalation. The symptoms associated with arsenic are diarrhea, sking tone, abdomunal pain, and muscle cramps.

Oligomycin is used as an antibiotic to inhibit proton ATPase present in mitochondria membrane which blocks ATP formation. Watery eyes, cough, congestion in chest and nose are sysmptopms of oligomycin poisining.

The symptoms cyanide poisoning are dizziness, short breath, nd muscle weakness which matches with the symptoms of jarod.

What current will an ammeter register if 960C of charge flow through it in 2 minutes?
postnew [5]

Answer:

8A

Explanation:

I= Q/t, where

I= current (A)

Q= charge (C)

t= time (s)

First convert the time from minutes to seconds.

1 minute= 60 seconds

2 minutes= 2×60= 120 seconds

Using the formula,

I= 960÷120

I= 8A
