Answer: A) Habitat loss
Explanation: While all four options are viable, habitat loss decreases biodiversity the fastest.
The hypothesis devised in this study by the researcher is –
" White fly nymphs escape predation because of their translucent bodies."
In order to test this hypothesis, the researcher is required to conduct an experiment where two sets of white fly nymphs are formed and fed to their predators. The two set of subjects would be -
Set I – White fly nymphs with translucent bodies
Set II- White fly nymphs with translucent bodies coated with harmless dyes.
The number of predated flies in each set can be compared to deduce justification for assumed hypothesis.
Hence, option B is correct
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Natural selection is most likely to occur in centuries of gradual climate change. Climate change is essentially environmental change, which is why the answer should be A.
Answer:
The substrate uptake rate depends not only on its concentration but also on other environmental factors (temperature, toxicity, pH, etc.) and on the state of cells, what particular transporters are expressed and take part in nutrients consumption.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Trench
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Oceanic trench is a deep canyon on the ocean floor that occurs where one tectonic plate subducts under another.
- Oceanic trench form where the old ocean crust from one tectonic plate is pushed beneath another plate, raising mountains, causing earthquakes, and forming volcanoes on the seafloor and on land.
- They are the deepest parts of the ocean floor.
