Answer:

The hill models gravity as a driving force in the water cycle.

Explanation:

Gravity (the gravitational force that pulls objects towards the centre of the Earth) drives the water cycle.

Gravity is responsible for precipitation (rain, hail, sleet, and snow) falling downwards towards the Earth's surface. It is also responsible for water at higher points on the Earth's surface flowing downwards to the lower points on the Earth's surface.

In Carlos' model, the hill represents a higher point on the Earth's surface while the valley represents a lower point on the Earth's surface. The river, flowing downwards from Carlos' hill to Carlos' valley, demonstrates the role of gravity as the driving force of the water cycle.

Will a female only inherit a sex linked disorder if her father suffers from the same disorder, and if her mother is a carrier fo
muminat

Answer:

The female will not inherit a sex linked disorder if her father suffers rather "have chances or the disorder if the mother is the carrier" for the disorder.

Explanation:

A female has 2 X chromosome, which she got from her parents each. The females will get the disorder or the defective gene if the mother has defective X chromosome or if the father is carrying the same disorder from his father(grandfather). In both the cases the female will be the carrier and have chances to inherit the defect to the offspring. But the female will  not affect as the  male will. As the female has 2 X chromosomes, and hence the dominant X will compensate for the error in recessive X.

Answer: a.Camouflage

Simulation is a deception in the characteristics of the organism which favors it's survival in the environment. Camouflage is a kind of simulation, in which the organism adapt the color or shape according to the surrounding environment in order to remain undetected by a prey and a predator. For example, chameleon is a reptile, which can change it's color according to the surrounding environment. It changes it's color to green in grass and remains brown in the tree bark in order to eat insects and remain undetected from prey and predator population.

Therefore, According to the simulation, camouflage helps predators to survive by allowing them to sneak up on their prey.

In which sphere does condensation occur? A) Hydrosphere B) Lithosphere C) Biosphere D) Atmosphere
lawyer [7]
<span>The answer is D) atmosphere. There are four spheres of the Earth: 1. Lithosphere (from Greek word 'lithos' = rock), 2. Hydrosphere (from Greek word 'hydros' = water), 3. Biosphere (from Greek word 'bios' = life), and 4. Atmosphere (from Greek word 'atmos' = air). Condensation is the change of water vapour into the water, i.e. the change of water from its gaseous form into liquid form. Since water vapour is the part of air, condensation occur in the atmosphere.</span>
