Answer:

The correct match would be:

  • Swallow - migration
  • Tiger - sparse distribution—scarce
  • Devil’s Hole pupfish - local endemic
  • Humpback whale - sparse distribution—widely dispersed

Swallows are small migratory birds belonging to the family Hirundinidae found all around the world. Migrating swallows can cover around 200 miles in a day.

Tiger has become endangered species due to excessive hunting and habitat loss. It is estimated that only 3800 tigers are left in the wild.

Devil’s Hole pupfish is a species of a fish only found in Devils Hole which is a  geothermal aquifer-fed pool located in Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge  in Nevada city of the United States

The humpback whale or <em>Megaptera novaeangliae</em> is a species of baleen whale which is widely distributed in all major oceans including Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian oceans.

Felipe believes that whenever the Moon is in the position that is shown from above (top view) in Diagram A, the Moon always look
AleksAgata [21]

Answer: Felipe is wrong.

Explanation:

In diagram A, we can see that the light comes from the left, it first impacts on the Earth, and then we have the Moon.

Now, you can model this situation with a flashlight (the Sun) a basketball (the Earth) and a tennis ball (the Moon)

When you point with the flashlight at the basketball, the basketball will look bright, but it will cast a shadow behind it. This shadow will cover the tennis ball, and almost no light will reach the tennis ball, so it will not look bright.

This phenomenon is called a lunar eclipse, and this happens when the Earth is in between the Sun and the Moon. When this happens, we see the moon a bit darker and more reddish.

What feature of both true mosses and ferns makes it most surprising that they can survive for many generations in dry deserts? U
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A

Explanation:

Desert biomes are characterised by the presence of the arid conditions or with few or less amount of rainfall.

The plant groups called the bryophytes and pteridophytes are dependent on the water for their fertilization which allows completing their life cycle.

In the desert conditions provided in the question, the mosses and ferns survived for many generations as these plant groups produced sperms with flagella which helped the sperms to swim in the water provided by the 10-inch rainfall per year and reach the female gamete and fertilize the egg cell.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.

A thrombus (blood clot) in the first branch of the arch of the aorta would affect the flow of blood to the ________. A. left sid
seropon [69]

Answer:

C. right side of the head and neck and right upper arm

Explanation:

The arch of aorta is a continuation of ascending aorta and terminates at the intervertebral disc of fourth and fifth thoracic vertebrae. The superior part of the arch of aorta branches off into three major arteries. The first branch of arch of aorta is the largest branch and is known as the brachiocephalic trunk.

The brachiocephalic trunk divides and forms the subclavian artery and right common carotid artery. Right common carotid artery supplied blood to the right side of the head and neck while the right subclavian artery delivers blood to the right upper limb.

Hence, any blood clot in the first branch of arch of aorta, that is the brachiocephalic trunk would affect the blood supply to the right side of the head and neck and right upper arm.
