C. the periodic rise and fall of the ocean surface
Humans maintain homeostasis in cold weather by the following ways:-
blood vessels constrict, pores close, metabolism increases.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Usually the denser oceanic plate is subsided by the less dense continental plate. As the oceanic plate dives into the mantle, it begins to melt and the part of liquid rock begin to rises through the fissures created due to stress in the convergent boundary. The magma then erupts, through these fissures, into volcanic mountains along the boundary.
Answer:
Logistic
Explanation:
<em>The type of population growth shown in the graph is logistic growth.</em>
In logistic growth, organisms introduced into a new environment experience a period of slow population growth as they try to get acclimatized with their new environment. Once the acclimatization period elapses, the populations grow exponentially and continue to do so till the carrying capacity of the environment is reached and then level off. Thus, the graph for logistic growth forms an S shape. The carrying capacity is the maximum number of individuals that a population can handle at a specific time based on the resources it has.
The alternate version of logistic growth is exponential population growth. In this case, after a slow growth period due to acclimatization, the population continue to grow exponentially without any limitation and at the maximum biotic potential of the environment. This kind of growth is possible only if the resources in the environment is unlimited. The graph for exponential growth forms a J shape.
