1 minute of latitude is equal to 1 nautical mile.
Just like an hour of time, there are 60 minutes in a degree of latitude.
Therefore, there are 60 nautical miles in each degree.
We are the cause of climate change. It is also caused by biotic factors such as variations in solar radiation received by Earth, plate tectonics, and volcanic eruptions.
The green house effect refers to gases trapping the heat energy reflected from earth’s surface.
gases trapping heat energy reflected from the earth's surface.
<u>Explanation:</u>
It is the greenhouse effect that made earth a planet that supports life. if there was no green house effect the earth would have been too cold to live on. Sunlight contains rays like UV and infrared.
UV rays being harmful are blocked by the ozone layer in the stratosphere. Infrared rays that enter the earth’s atmosphere are trapped by the greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, water vapour, methane etc. the trapped infrared rays help in providing warmth.
A generalist species is able to survive in a wide variety of environmental conditions and can make use of lots of different resources. Generalist species have a big niche. Humans, rabbits, house flies, and raccoons would all fall under the generalist species list.
A specialist species can only thrive is a small variety of environmental conditions and/or only has a limited diet. Specialist species have a small niche. Pandas, koalas, and salamanders would all fall under the specialist species list.
Answer: the rabbit
Explanation:
In ecology, biomass refers to the mass of organisms living within a specific region at a time. Biomass is measured and usually described as:
- the total mass of the organisms within a community
- the average masses per unit area
Typically, more numerous organisms, such as producers, have a higher average biomass. This may include plants, animals or microbes such as bacteria and fungi. In terrestrial environments, biomass is distributed in pyramid form; the carnivorous hawk preys on rabbits and birds, which are nearer to the base of the pyramid- each predator population would have a lower biomass than its prey.
The birds weigh 100 grams while the rabbit weighs 150 grams.The rabbit has a higher total mass
