Answer:
Rapid increases in water temperature cause extensive fish kills
Explanation:
Biotic factors are all living organisms that contribute to an ecosystem. On the other hand, abiotic factors are non-living factors, such as climatic factors (temperature, rainfall, wind), edaphic factors (soil type, soil texture, soil aeration etc). Changes of abiotic factors can have a huge influence on living organisms of ecosystem. The effects might be benefical or harmful.
Some of the most common abiotic factors that can impact a marine ecosystem are water temperature, currents, light, alkalinity, oxygent concentration etc.
A basic tenet of modern biology, first stated by Matthias Schleiden and Theodor Schwann in 1838–39, that cells<span> are the basic units of structure and function in living organisms. ... A </span>theory<span> of heredity must be reconciled with the </span>cell theory<span>.</span>
The answer is stabilizing selection.
<span>Sickle-cell anemia is a recessive disorder caused by the presence of two recessive alleles "s", so genotype is "ss". This disorder is characterized by sickle hemoglobin. In an area with malaria, heterozygous individuals "Ss" (with one dominant allele and one recessive allele) have an advantage. These individuals will have both normal and sickle hemoglobin. But pathogen that causes malaria affect only normal hemoglobin, so heterozygous individuals will have half of the hemoglobin resistant to the pathogen and those individuals are resistant to malaria.</span>
Stabilizing selection favors heterozygotes Ss, disruptive selection favors dominant (SS) and recessive (ss) homozygotes, while directional selection favors dominant (SS) or recessive (ss) homozygote. Since in this example, people with genotype Ss (heterozygotes) are in advantage, then this is an example of stabilizing selection.
Abiotic factors determine which organisms can survive in an ecosystem because they are the non living objects in an ecosystem
