Low head dams are dangerous to small boats and paddle craft because the strong circular current below the dam can capture the small ships and rowing boats and it can pull them under the dam.

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

BA17 (British Airways) is the live flight status, scheduled flights, flight arrival and departure times, flight tracks and playback, flight route and airport.

A low head dam or called a weir is a small structure that impounds a small amount of water and it spans the width of river or stream. It is usually made from concrete. The purpose of a low head dams is to raise the water level upstream on a river.

A boat is a watercraft of a large range of type and size. The ships are generally distinguished from boats based on their larger size, shape, and cargo or passenger capacity, and their ability to carry boats.  Small boats are typically found on inland waterways such as rivers and lakes, or in protected coastal areas. Paddle craft has become a rapidly growing and diversifying portion of the recreational watercraft  community.

Low-head dams are dangerous for small boats and rowing boats because the strong circular current below the dam can capture the small ships and rowing boats and it can pull them under the dam.

Low-head dams are dangerous structures that basically extend from one side of a riverbank to the other. Low-head dams block the water way partially and the water moving over the dam produces a strong circular current at the lower part of the dam. Low-head dams are dangerous to small boats and paddle craft because the strong circular current below the dam can trap small boats and paddle craft and pull them under the dam.

In order for evolution to occur, what must happen in a population?
kozerog [31]
For evolution to occur: There must be genetic variation in a population. This provides variation on which natural selection can act. Then natural selection can act by selecting those species which are better adapted to the environmental conditions. Over time those animals that are best suited to the environment only will survive and reproduce. Those organisms successful genes will be preserved and eventually the gene frequency in the population will change, changing the overall characteristics of a population. This is how evolution occurs.

What does it mean to say that an allele is "fixed" in the population?
Gemiola [76]
Alleles are the individual genes that give rise to certain characteristics in an organism.

When an allele is "fixed" to a population, this means that the characteristic will be constant & most likely will not change until the environment changes as well.

Like with arctic hare, the alleles that influence the color of their coats (white in the winter & brown in the spring/summer) will stay because any fur pattern other than the aforementioned characteristics with result in becoming someone else's food with the lack of camouflage.

Hope that helps!
