Answer:

population of hawks

Explanation:

The population of the ground squirrels will be limited by the population of the hawks. The population of the hawks, thus, will be a limiting factor for the population of the ground squirrels. The Hawks are the birds of prey that feeds on squirrels. With the increased number of hawks in the same area as them will put these squirrels in danger. The population of the tree squirrels, however, will have no affect on the population of the ground squirrels. The genetic variability and breeding season are not limiting factors for their population either.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option B - a population of hawks'.

"Rainwater can replace or replenish freshwater sources" and "precipitation, such as rainwater, is a source of freshwater on Earth" statements describe freshwater sources

<u>Explanation:</u>

Rainwater a source of pure distilled water, evaporated by the sun. When it falls it comes in contact of air and land. when ground soaks the water it becomes mineral water. And it is safe for drinking.

All the freshwater sources are result of precipitation from the earth surface,in various form i.e rain,mist,snow.  Freshwater falling as rain have materials dissolved from atmosphere in it,sea and the land over which the clouds has travelled.

One critical observation used by both Lamarck and Darwin in their research is about characteristics of inheritance. Although each claimed different sources of inheritance, they were in unison that in time, individuals acquire characteristics called inheritance. Lamarck believed that inheritance is passed from parents to offspring, while Darwin thought that it’s a product of natural selection.

During dehydration synthesis is 42 water molecules were made how many monosaccharides were joined together to make the complex c
netineya [11]

Answer:

43 monosaccharides will be joined together to make the complex carbohydrate.

Explanation:

The complex carbohydrates are synthesized by the joining of monosaccharide residues by glycosidic linkages.One glycosidic linkage joins two monosaccharide residues by the elimination of one molecule of water.

  In other words it can be said that elimination of one water molecule joins two monosaccharides.By the same way elimination of 42 molecules of water will result in the joining of 43 monosaccaride residues.

The following picture shows the three primary types of plate boundaries. Which boundary is being shown in label A? an arrow poin
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The label A corresponds to Convergent boundary zones  

Explanation:  

When two oceanic plates collide, it occurs oceanic convergence. The thicker and older plate subduces under the other plate, and at this point, it starts the volcanic activity. As the thicker plate descends, it is heated and melted and its materials are incorporated into the mantle. The fast subduction originates magma that ascends to the surface by crevices. This makes place to the formation of grouped <u>volcanic islands</u>, t<u>he island arches</u>. Subduction zones coincide with deep-sea <u>trenches</u> or depressions in the ocean bed. The volcanic islands are arranged in a circumference arch shape, which is bordered by a fossa. Most of these are located in the western Pacific, where the pacific crust is older and thicker, and hence it submerges easier in the mantle.
