Galapogos tortoises have a number of shell variations, shown right. What are the advantages of choosing a system examining the b

eaks of finches instead of the shells of tortoises? Check all that apply.
Birds have shorter lifespans, making generations shorter.

The bird population is likely much greater, allowing for more data.

Tortoises move too slowly for natural selection to influence shell phenotype.

Birds are easier to track and monitor.

Answer:

First, second, and last are correct statements.

For accuracy and reliability of any experiment, a number of observations must be as large as possible. It reduces the effect of any observation or any event which might have happened by chance or error.

Thus, finches were better to record observations as they were available in large number as compared to the tortoise.

In addition, the life cycle of birds is smaller as compared to the tortoise which enabled the scientists to observe more generations.

Lastly, the birds were easy to capture and track as compared to the tortoise. Tortoise being an amphibian could live on land as well as in water which made it difficult to track them.

Scientists had suspected that our planet formed dry, with high-energy impacts creating a molten surface on the infant Earth.

Describe how the process of photosynthesis led to an increase in cellular respiration and more complex cells
koban [17]

Answer:

<u><em>BRIEF EXPLANATION</em></u>

Photosynthesis is the anabolic process of building up glucose and making O2 from CO2 and water while cellular respiration is the opposite catabolic process of breaking down glucose by oxidizing it with O2 to get CO2 and water.

Explanation:

<em><u>MAIN ANSWER TO THE QUESTION.</u></em>

Photosynthesis is like when you’re trying to gain muscle and you eat tuna and eggs to turn it into muscle tissue. This takes energy in the form of food just like how photosynthesis requires sunlight for energy.

Cellular respiration is like when impoverished people starve for a week because they don’t have sufficient food to eat for nutrients. They have to get them from somewhere else. So the body breaks down glycogen, body fat and muscle tissue to provide the energy.
