The rotation of the earth
The Coriolis Effect is caused by Earth’s uneven distribution of heat AND the rotation of the earth
Explanation:
Due to the spherical nature of the earth, when it spins, around its axis, different latitudes spin at different rates. The nearer to the pole you get the slower the earth’s spins (approx 0.00008 kilometers/hr), while this spin is fastest at the equator ( approx1,600 kilometers/hr). Due to this differential spin, ocean and winds currents (while they move polewards due to convection) are deflected as they move towards the pole from the equator. Towards the North, they are deflected westwards while towards the South they are deflected eastwards.

Answer:
age-graded
Explanation:
Age-graded influences are biological and environmental events that influence the dynamic interaction between an individual and their environment at certain ages of the individual’s course of life. They are events that are expected to occur in a particular setting based on chronological age. For example, depending on the cultural settings of an individual, an individual is expected to graduate high school at a certain age, or get married at a certain age. Another example is puberty and menopause which are biological influences that are age-graded.
Answer:
The correct option is A.
Explanation:
As we know that genetic variation that result from crossing over depend on the number of genes and their alleles. When there are more genes in genome the chances of polymorphic loci will increase, which will result into more genetic variation during crossing over.
Forexample:
Drosophila melanogaster is a common fruit fly having diploid number of 8 chromosome composed of 122,653,977 base pairs, and about ~17,000 genes. Honey bees have diploid number of 32 chromosomes composed of approximately 2360000 base pairs, and 10,000 genes.
Conclusion:
As fruit fly genome contain more genes and polymorphic loci, so genetic variation is more likely to be greater in fruit fly.
So given the suggested food chain of algae-snail-sunfish-heron we can conclude that this food chain is heavily dependent on the process of photosynthesis.
The algae is the only of the organism that are directly dependent of the photosynthesis for their survival, while the snail, sunfish, and heron, and indirectly dependent on it.
Since we are talking about a food chain, in essence it means that all organism are connected through one another. So the algae perform photosynthesis for its own survival, the snail is using the algae is a food source, the snail is later eaten by the sunfish, and the sunfish goes on the menu of the heron.
If the algae, by some scenario, are not able to perform photosynthesis, than they will die off, and if they die off, than the snail will die off because of lack of food, if the snail dies off, along with it dies off the sunfish because of lack of food, and if the sunfish is out of the scene, the heron goes as well.
So we can conclude that the process of photosynthesis is of crucial importance for the survival of all four species, be it directly or indirectly.
The black widow spider is an invertebrate. Its skeleton system hangs outside its body. The only difference between a vertebrate and invertebrate is the presence of backbone or a similar kind of structure with in the body. In case of black widow spider, the internal structural element is missing. Its skeleton system can be classified as exoskeleton.
