Answer:

comparatively cooler

Explanation:

The land areas and water bodies get heated during the summer due to the increasing amount of incoming solar radiation. The water bodies like oceans, seas, and rivers take more time to heat as they can reflect some amount of radiation back to the atmosphere and also it takes a lot of time to cool.

In the case of areas near a lake and away from the lake, the areas near the lake will be comparatively cooler than the areas that are away from the lake. It is because the water in the lake is quite less in comparison to the ocean bodies, so the water will be heated at a faster rate and it will reflect some amount of light also, thereby the places will be cold less warm.

But away from the lake, the areas will absorb more heat as it cannot reflect the solar radiation back into the atmosphere. So these places will be warmer.

Hence, the areas near the lake will be cooler than the areas away from the lake.

Is asexual reproduction better when the environment changes or when the environment does not change?

Georgia [21]

Asexual reproduction produces genetically identical offspring and sexual reproduction creates variation in the offspring. When the environment changes and it affects the asexual offspring it will affect all identical copies whereas since the sexual offspring have more variation, they are more likely to survive.

Is it considered muscle s ennervation if sympathetic fibers innervate the vessels within the muscle?

Serggg [28]

hello there,

Most effector the organs receive dual innervation, but some (e.g., adrenal medulla, sweat glands, the pilomotor muscles, and many blood vessels) are innervated by only the sympathetic nervous system.this, the stimulation of either the sympathetic or the side parasympathetic innervation results in salivary secretion.
