Biology

maksim [4K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The 4 types of air masses are polar, tropical, continental and maritime. Their classification depends on their location where they are formed.

Explanation:

One major influence of air mass movement is the upper level winds such as the upper level winds associated with the jet stream. The jet stream wind is often referred to as a steering wind. The troughs and ridges of the jet stream will help transport cold air toward lower latitudes and warm air toward high latitudes.

Explain character displacement, and provide an example.
nata0808 [166]

A line of indirect evidence of competition comes from the comparison between closely related species, whose population can be allopatric (geographically separated) or sympatric (geographically superimposed). In some cases, the allopatric populations of these species are morphologically similar and use similar resources. On the other hand, sympatric population, which are supposed to compete for resources, have body structures and use different resources. The displacement of characters is the tendency to have more divergent characteristics in sympatric populations of two species than in allopatric populations of the same two species.

An example of character displacement is the variation in size between populations of galapagos finches. Some of its populations are allopatric ( they live separately) and others are sympatric ( they live together). Peak size distributions they vary according to whether they are sympatric or allopatric.  They look more alike when they are allopathic than when they are sympatric. That is, the peak size character moves when species enter competition.
