This phenomenon can be explained by Allen's rule. It says that the body proportions and shape may vary in different climates. The temperature decreases as the latitude increases, so in the northern region is much colder. Animals must preserve heat in such conditions. So, exposed surface areas of the body, such as the ears, feet, and tail, are usually minimized to minimize heat loss in the cold climate. <span>Therefore, northern species often have smaller ears, feet, and tail than the southern species. </span>
The correct answer is be sure that your instrument is calibrated properly. If your instrument isn't calibrated, then your data will be inconsistent.
The correct answer is stabilizing selection reduces the amount of variation in a trait. disruptive selection increases the amount of variation in a trait.
Stabilizing selection is a type of natural selection in which genetic diversity decreases because natural selection favours an average phenotype and selects against extreme variations.

Disruptive selection is a type of natural selection in which extreme values for a trait are favoured over intermediate values, thus it increases genetic variance.</span>
The answer is A. Dew point is the temperature at which air will turn into water vapor, a state between gas and liquid. If the temperature is further cooled down to lower than the dew point, water will condense, in other words, the gas state of air will turn into liquid state of water.
