Answer:
B. Air moves towards the poles as it cools
Explanation:
The image represent convection cell or Hadley cell is a natural phenomenon in the atmosphere that occur due to difference in the density within a body of liquid or gas. These differences in density causes rise and fall in currents.
The process in step A refers to when hot air moves up and in the step B, the hot air encounters a cold surface, it direct exchange the heat with cold surface and the air cools down and move towards the poles.
Hence, the correct answer is "B. Air moves towards the poles as it cools".
Answer:
The Lock and Key mechanism refer to the action of enzyme. According to this mechanism as a specific key open a particular lock, similarly one enzyme can perform action on one specific substrate (substance).
Answer:
sympatric speciation
Explanation:
Different sympatric species have the same closest ancestor and live in the same area but inhabiting different niches.
The steps for sympatric speciation are:
- An ancestral species inhabit a geographic area.
- With time, different populations of the same species occupy different niches or microhabitats in this general area.
- As the microhabitats are different, they have different environmental pressures that are acting on each population.
- These pressures lead to the origin of differences between groups, which need to adapt to each environment
- Each population suffers genetic changes due to environmental conditions. These changes are inheritable.
- With time, these differences drive to the final complete divergence of populations, becoming different species and reproductively isolated.
In sympatric speciation, the interruption of genetic flow must be fast, and there must be differences in niches so no species can compete and displace the other species. <em>Speciation occurs in the same distribution area of the original species</em>. The new species originate in a place with no physical barriers but different environmental pressures.
In the exposed example,
- <em>The introduced Cichlid fishes 200 years ago</em> → Original species and the common ancestor between the new derivated species
- <em>The lake</em> → general geographic area
- <em>The main lake and the streams</em> → Microhabitats or niches with different pressures each
- <em>The groups are splitting into two genetically and physically different types of fishes. They do not mate. There is no genetic flow between groups.</em> → Speciation process.
Answer:
Cockroach is you answer.
Explanation:
They do this by using a very efficient breathing system that uses air filled tubes, called trachea, to deliver oxygen directly to cells. Oxygen flows in as required into the tracheal system through valves on the insect, called spiracles. But, sometimes, they shut their spiracles and stop breathing.
The most prominent role played by plants and algae is that in energy transfer; they are producers and they introduce energy into the ecosystem and different food chains. The earth's only source of energy is the sun, and plants and algae transform this light energy into chemical energy, which is obtained by organisms that consume these plants and algae.
Moreover, plant and algae species are diverse and adapted to carry out their function and survive in different environments, which means they also increase the biodiversity of a region.
