The correct answer is A. A burst of speciation

Explanation:

Adaptative radiation is part of evolution and occurs when a single organism or species diversify into a wide range of species (speciation), this process is called "adaptative" because the speciation occurs due to changes in the environment that make challenging survival usually due to the reduction of resources available and therefore organisms change to adapt to new conditions. Additionally, in adaptive radiation, the new organisms share traits with their common ancestor but also have different and unique traits. Considering this, it can be concluded adaptative radiation a burst of speciation.

How do the tides affect organisms that live in tidal waters?
4vir4ik [10]
<span>Tides and currents carry nutrients, moderate temperatures, and influence conditions in numerous ecosystems. The relationship between society and tides and currents is obvious as coastal cities built to withstand prescribed levels of tidal surge are now being impacted by record breaking tidal surges, and the building of solid coastal structures do not allow waves to dissipate energy on land but deflect their energy to other coastal areas along the shore.

Answer:

By researching, I would think that the answer is D. Ice crystals melt as they fall through a warm layer of air and then refreeze into small ice pellets as they pass through a colder layer of air.

Explanation:

<em>During precipitation formation, if temperatures are at or below freezing, 0°C (32°F), at cloud level, water in the air freezes into ice crystals, and the crystals stick together to make snow. The snow starts to fall, and if the air column is freezing cold all the way down from the clouds to the ground, the precipitation stays frozen. It simply falls as snow.</em>

<em />

<em>Sometimes, however, a temperature inversion occurs. Normally, the temperature decreases with increasing altitude. A temperature inversion is when a layer of warm air intrudes between the ground and the clouds.</em>

<em />

<em>Under these conditions, when the falling snow reaches the layer of warm air, it melts. Then it hits the layer of cold air just above Earth’s surface and refreezes. This all happens very fast, and the result is tiny ice pellets called sleet.</em>
