Question

Speciation occurs during the evolutionary development, or phylogeny, of a species. In which of the following situations can speciation occur? A. when two populations are reproductively isolated B. when two populations merge to become one population C. when a population becomes interbred D. when a population becomes extinct

Solution 1

The situations that speciation will occur is ; when two populations are reproductively isolated. Speciation involves the formation of new and distinct species during evolution. It entails the splitting of a single evolutionary lineage into two or more genetically independent lineages. For example, in allopatric speciation, groups from an ancestral population evolve into separate species due to a period of geographical separation.

Question

Why do dogs die from bloat

Solution 1

Bloat is a condition that not only happens in dogs but also many other animals such as horses. When an animal like dogs have bloat, it is claimed that nearly 25% to 40% of them will die even in an emergency treatment. This is because air and food fills up the stomach, leading to an expansion which decreases the breathing of the dog. When a dog is out of breathe, he or she may not make it to the hospital in time and additionally lower the blood supply to other organs of the body. Shock is also a big reason most of them instantly die. Some common symptoms of bloat include hard breathing, vomit, drooling, pale mouth and nose, etc.

Question

A species of finch has been studied on one of the geographically isolated Galapagos Islands for many years. Since the island is small, the lineage of every bird for several generations is known. This allows a family tree of each bird to be developed. Some family groups have survived and others have died out. The groups that survive probably have: A) Interbred with other species B) Inherited some advantageous variations C) Found new places on the island to live D) Been attacked by more predators

Solution 1

B) Inherited some advantageous variations

Question

Which of the following is not an organic cause of mechanical weathering ?

Solution 1

Hello. This question is incomplete. The complete question is:

"Which of the following is not an organic cause of mechanical weathering? A. lichens B. plant roots C. prairie dogs D. burrowing snakes "

Answer:

Lichens

Explanation:

Weathering or weathering is a set of processes of a physical, chemical and biological nature that contributes to the formation of relief and climate in the world, since it interferes with the transformations of rocks and contributes to the formation of soil.

Mechanical weathering occurs through physical processes, with the fragmentation of rocks thus forming various types of sediment (eg sand). It is mainly influenced by temperature and pressure variation. Thus, the process of rock dilation favors its fragmentation. Despite being caused by physical processes, mechanical weathering has organic influences such as plant roots, prairie dogs, burrowing snakes.

Solution 2

Frost wedging is not the cause of mechanical weathering

Question

Discuss the importance of oxygen to all living organisms, and describe how three different organisms—human, flatworm, and fern—obtain the oxygen they need.

Solution 1

Importance:
Oxygen is the third most abundant element and constitute about 21% of the gases in earth's atmosphere. It is a key for generating energy in cellular respiration. In aerobic respiration, electron release in electron transport chain is culminated by oxygen, result into the production of chemical energy.
Oxygen obtained by human:
Human obtain oxygen through respiratory system by applying partial law of diffusion.The partial pressure of oxygen in atmosphere is higher than inside lungs, so oxygen move into lungs in exchange for carbon dioxide.
Oxygen obtained by flatworms:

Oxygen obtained by ferns:

What is structural adaptation

Solution 1

Structural adaptations are physical features of an organism like the bill on a bird or the fur on a bear. Other adaptations are behavioral. Behavioraladaptations are the things organisms do to survive. For example, bird calls and migration are behavioraladaptations.
