Answer:
B: volcanic activity
D: fossil fuel consumption
Explanation:
Fossil fuel consumption and volcanic activity are the two factors that has a great influenced on the global temperatures. Fossil fuel consumption is a human activity and volcanic activity both releases carbondioxide gas while burning. This carbondioxide gas is a greenhouse gas which block the reflected solar radiation and leads to increase in the surface temperature of the earth.
Answer:
Gulf Stream
Explanation:
The Gulf Stream is a strong ocean current that brings warm water from the Gulf of Mexico into the Atlantic Ocean. It extends all the way up the eastern coast of the United States and Canada.

Answer:
A
Explanation:
When these viruses insert their genome into the host cell, they usually have a reverse transcriptase enzyme that converts the RNA to DNA before it is integrated into the host genome. This is before the host cell machinery is hijacked to replicate the viruses components.
Answer:
Answer is option A.
Vestigial features are fully developed and functional in one group of organisms but reduced and function less in a similar group.
Explanation:
- Vestigial structures are anatomical features such as cells, tissues or organs in an organism that are previously functional and performed some important functions in the organism but no longer serve any functions in the current form of the organism and become useless as a result of a large evolutionary change. Examples include the coccyx or the tailbone in humans, the pelvic bone of a snake, wisdom teeth in humans, nipples in human males, the wings of flightless birds such as kiwi, ostrich, etc.
- Homologous features are the features that are similar in different organisms having similar embryonic origin and development and are inherited from a common ancestor that also had that feature. Also, they might have different functions. An example is the presence of four limbs in tetrapods such as crocodiles, birds, etc.
- Analogous features are the features that are superficially similar in different organisms but had separate evolutionary origins i.e., different in origin, but similar in function. An example includes the wings on a fly, a moth, and a bird where the wings were developed independently as adaptations to perform the common function of flying.
- Polygenic features are the traits or features that are controlled by multiple genes that are located on the same or different chromosomes and are also affected by the environment. These features do not follow Mendel’s pattern of inheritance and are represented as a range of continuous variation. Examples of polygenic traits or features include skin color, height, hair color, eye color, etc. For example, there is wide variation in the human skin color (from light to dark) and height (short or tall or somewhere in between).
- Sympatry describes a species or a population that inhabit the same geographic region at the same time. In sympatric speciation, new species are evolved from a surviving ancestral species while both the species inhabit the same place at the same time i.e., in a single population, reproductive isolation occurs without geographic isolation.
Answer:
sex cells with 23 chromosomes: 22 autosomes and one sex chromosome.
Explanation:
Sex cells are the gametes and are products of meiosis. These cells have haploid chromosome number. Human sex cells are sperms and egg which serve as male and female gamete respectively. Human sex cells have n = 23 chromosomes. Out of total 23 chromosomes, 22 chromosomes are autosomes while one is the sex chromosome (either X or Y chromosome). Deviation from this pattern can cause any genetic disorder.
