Populations of larus gulls around the north pole show an unusual pattern of reproductive isolation: each population is able to i

nterbreed with its neighboring populations, but populations separated by larger geographic distances are not able to interbreed. this type of species complex is known as a:

Ring species.

When there are neighbouring populations that can interbreed with each other while only two of those populations cannot breed between them, we are standing before a ring species. In the case of Larus gulls what is observed is that several of these species can interbreed, but it comes to two of them that are incompatible - they are probably to<span> distantly related to interbreed. It is considered, that this species may be connected to each other in a line of derivation and is both ends on that line that are incompatible.</span>

a person usually experiences changes in body temperature over a 24 hour period. is it caused by immune responses?
schepotkina [342]
At times, a person may have experienced a sudden or unexpected change in body temperature within a 24-hour period. This change in the body temperature is caused by immune responses. If there is a detected infection in the body, the immune system fights back thus causing the change of body temperature.

Some slime molds have some morphological similarities to fungi such as during times of stress they will develop into fruiting bo
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option - D.

Explanation:

Slime moulds are the fungus-like protists which bear a structure called sporangium which produces spores.  The sporangium is produced in fungi as well due to which these protists are called fungus-like.  Although both produce sporangium but they are not closely related, rather they are distantly related organisms.

The appearance of a sporangium in both indicates that they had faced the same conditions due to which they both showed the same adaptation by producing the same structures performing the same function. In evolutionary terms, this is an example of convergent evolution.

Thus, option D is the correct answer.

(1)

Troposphere – This is the densest layer and where weather events occur

Stratosphere – This is where the ozone layer is found. Some high altitude aircraft cruise in this layer.

Mesosphere – Temperatures drop with altitude in this layer

Thermosphere – This is where most of the meteorites that enter the earth’s atmosphere burn up. This layer takes up most of the Uv and X-rays from the sun. Most satellites orbiting earth are in this layer

Exosphere – almost akin to space due to the thinness of the layer. Molecules in the layer often escape into space

(2)

A ‘pause’ is a transition between the above-mentioned distinct layers. The tropopause, for example, occurs between the troposphere and the stratosphere and the stratopause between the stratosphere and mesosphere and thermopause is found between thermosphere and exosphere.

(3)

A temperature inversion is a rise in temperatures with altitude in a layer in the atmosphere. One layer exhibiting temperature inversion is the stratosphere. This is due to the ozone layer that absorbs UV light. The upper ozone absorbs most of the UV light, than lower ozone, exciting the molecules and making the higher altitudes in the layer to be warmer.

(4)

The ozone layer protects life on earth from the high energy UV radiation from the sun. UV is capable of causing double-stranded break on DNA resulting in genetic mutations on organisms. Most of these would be lethal. The Ozone absorbs most of the UV before it reaches earth's surface. Ozone is formed when an oxygen molecule reacts with another oxygen atom to form an O₃. The oxygen atoms are made from the splitting of an oxygen molecule by UV light.

1. Describe how radio telescopes are used to explore space.
Yuri [45]

Radio telescope picks up the radio spectrum of electromagnetic waves from celestial bodies (just like telescopes like the Hubble pick up visible light – only that radio waves are invisible to our eyes). They are therefore used to detect objects in space that produces radio waves. Examples are quasars and pulsars. Radio telescopes also enable astronomers to be whats beyond gas and dust in space that blocks out most of the visible light spectrum.
