Answer:

A respirometer is a device that is used to measure the consumption rate of oxygen by any living organism.

So as the oxygen uses by the organism, the pressure of oxygen in the respirometer decreases and as the pressure decrease some amount of water enters the respirometer.  

So according to the consumption of oxygen water will move inside the respirometer due to a reduction in pressure in respirometer. So the rate of respiration can be calculated because the amount of water enters is directly proportional to the amount of oxygen consumed by an organism.

How does gene flow directly contribute to evolution? I'll mark brainliest
kifflom [539]

Answer:

The correct answer is - B. It introduces new alleles into a population.

Explanation:

Gebe flow or migration is the transfer of the genetic material or transfer of genes from one population to another population of the same species. Gene flow is also responsible for the genetic change that leads to evolution.

Gene flow can contribute in various ways such as migration or vertical gene transfer parent to progeny, however, it can lead to evolution directly by introducing new alleles into a population.

Marta_Voda [28]

In an experiment the HYPOTHESIS is tested. The hypothesis is the assumption, that you make about something. Example would be, you believe (hypothesize) that the baking soda will react faster in vinegar than in water. You then test it out (or preform and experiment) to see if your hypothesis is correct or wrong.
