Why does the reporter have a tube up his nose?

Biology
1 answer:
Fittoniya [83]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

"To accurately measure core temperature" the reporter have a tube up his nose

Explanation:

The tube seen entering the reporter's nose is a thermistor which is used to measure the core temperature of the body with very high levels of accuracy. The tube reaches the esophagus, which is one of the most preferred locations for measuring the core temperature. The core body temperature is the operating temperature of the human body and it refers to the temperature of the deeper structures of the body instead of the peripheral tissues.  The esophagus is close to the left ventricle of the heart, it has a deep body location and a quick response to any changes in the body temperature.

faust18 [17]

Answer: D) The lizard and the snake are secondary consumers.

Explanation:

Producers are organisms that, simply put, produce their own food. All photosynthesizing plants are considered to be producers. Animals cannot be producers.

Primary consumers eat producers.

Secondary consumers eat primary consumers.

Tertiary consumers eat secondary consumers, and so on.

The lizard eats a fly, which is a primary consumer. This makes the lizard a secondary consumer.

The snake eats a mouse, which is a primary consumer. This makes the snake a secondary consumer.

A) is incorrect because the hawk is a tertiary consumer.

B) is incorrect because grass is a producer, not a consumer

C) is incorrect because the lizard is a secondary consumer

Think about the two words that make up the term reproductive isolation. How do you think reproductive isolation affects the evol
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Reproductive isolation refers to the inability of an organism or species to breed successfully with other organism or species.

It may arise from various factors such as:

  • Geographical isolation such as river, mountain, etc
  • Behavioral changes such as mating time or season, mating rituals, mating location etc.
  • Physiological differences such as change in shape of sex organs which causes lack of fit between copulatory organs.
  • Genetic differences.

Reproductive and geographical isolations between two populations (of same species) inhibit the flow of genes among them. Slowly, these isolations increase the variations in the gene pools of the two populations.

These genetic variations keep on increasing with time. In addition, as an adaptation to their surrounding or habitat the two populations would develop different behavioral and physiological changes

With time, these differences will increase up to such an extent that the two populations would not be able breed with each other. Hence, it would lead to the evolution of one or both the populations into new species.
