Answer:
A) The resources used by both species of salamanders are available in limited supply
B) Body size is a heritable trait in salamanders Salamanders that are closer in body sine compete less strongly for food
C) The sympatric salamander populations evolved their present body sizes afterthey became sympatric
D) In sympatric populations, smaller P. Cinereus adults survive better and reproduce more.
All of the above are correct.
AnswerDuring breathing, air travels from your mouth and pharynx into the larynx (toward your lungs). When you swallow, a flap called the epiglottis moves to block the entrance of food particles into your larynx and lungs. The muscles of the larynx pull upward to assist with this movement.:
Explanation:
First of all, let's think about the scientific method, and its processes of how it works.
It all starts with observation, so we need to check all the data we have and all the information that can be collected to have a good thought on what's going on.
After gathering enough information, let's think about a hypothesis that could help solving this problem. Well, reading the question, we can check that that region passed through the wettest summer in 100 years, and that's the main problem here, because before this weather, was this disease a problem? I guess not, so this can be a reason, the change in the percentage of water in the air.
With that said, we need to test if this is true or not, and for that, we'll need mosquitoes with the West Nile virus, and we'll put them in different environments, one that it's wet, and another one that it's not that wet, just like the West Nile problem. This way we can check if this is the problem or not, if it's affecting their reproduction and etc.
