Answer:
C. Constant supplies of freshwater are needed because body water is continually being lost.
Answer:
1- Option A) describes an index fossil. Trilobite existed for a short time, but was abundant and lived in many locations.
2- Option B) Continents were once joined and have since drifted apart.
Explanation:
1) Fossils are animal and vegetable rests found in different strata of sedimentary rocks. Sedimentary layers deposit chronologically, so they are used to reflect history. They keep in each layer some of the forms of life that inhabited that area in the past. These fossils turn to be very useful while dating ages. The term Index fossils refer to those fossils that only existed in a given era or geological period during evolution.
Index fossils must:
• Be easily recognizable and distinguishable from all the other fossils
• Have lived in a relatively short geological period
• Present a wide geographic distribution
• Have lived in different sedimentary basins
• Appear in different types of rocks
• Be abundant
<em>A) Trilobite existed for a short time, but was abundant and lived in many locations. </em>The species accomplish the requirements. It is easily recognizable, had a wide geographic distribution, was abundant, and lived for a short time.
2) The tectonic plates theory states that there is a continual movement of the crust. It explains the movement of the different plates and their directions and interactions. The continental drift theory explains how these movements have been taking place since millions of years ago. When continents were together in a unique continent, many species used to inhabit it. When plates started to separate, they took some of these species that got apart by the ocean. Some species were already dead and fossilized, while some other organisms died during continental drift and got fossilized after the divergence. <em>The existence of the same fossils, placed in the same layers and of the same age, suggests that they used to inhabit the same area and died during the same time, meaning that continents were together when they got fossilized. </em>
Answer:
The genotypes of the two parents: normal head shape (HH) and Bart head shape (hh)
The genotypes in the F1 generation= Hh
The phenotypes present in the F1 generation= All normal head shape
Explanation:
Let's assume that the allele "H" is responsible for the normal head shape while the allele "h" gives Bart head shape. According to the given information, both the parents are homozygous. The genotype of the parent with normal head shape would be "HH" while that of the one with Bart head shape would be "hh". Since the normal head shape is dominant, all the F1 hybrid progeny would exhibit "normal head shape".
Answer:
waxing
Explanation:
When the Moon appears smaller than a quarter, we call it a crescent. When the Moon appears larger than a quarter, we call it gibbous. When the moon is getting bigger (phases New to Full) it is waxing. When it is getting smaller (phases Full to New) it is waning.
Answer:
Explanation:
Dependent variable is the outcome that is measured. This is the number of colonies produces by the clinical Isolate strain. Without the growth media the strain cannot thrive or reproduce hence their dependent on the media for survival.
While independent variable is the treatment that is varied in an experiment. It usually not dependent on any variable and can stand on it own.
The growth media that is lacking in chemical is the independent variable because it stands on it own and it can be carried depending on the experimental design it could be a chemical based growth media or no chemical like the one used in this experiment.
