astraxan [27]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: The correct answer is Diffusion.

The molecules of carbon dioxide enter the oceans through the process of diffusion into the surface of sea water and dissolve by a physio-chemical process. The factors affecting the amount of carbon dioxide diffusion includes wind, concentration of carbon dioxide, temperature of the water etc. The carbon dioxide which diffuses into the oceans reacts with water forming carbonic acid, carbonate and bicarbonate ions. The gaseous form of carbon dioxide in atmosphere is converted to non-gaseous form reduces the carbon dioxide pressure in the water and promotes more diffusion from the atmosphere.

Is extensive loss of hair observed in humans and whales an example of homoplasy or homology? see section 25.1 (page 497) ?
marin [14]
I believe that hair and limbs are homology because all mammals have hair and similar limb structure. Hair loss and social behavior on the other hand are homolasy because not all mammals have them. Homology is the similar traits due to common ancestry while homoplasy is similar traits for other reasons other than common ancestry.
