There are both physical and biological limiting factors found in nature.
-Physical factors (abiotic factors) include temperature, water availability, oxygen, salinity, light, food and nutrients.
-Biological factors (biotic factors) involve interactions between organisms such as predation, competition, parasitism and
herbivory.
Answer:
Option 1.
Explanation:
r-selected species may be defined as the species that has higher growth rate, shows less parental care and the rate of survival of the off spring is low as compared with k selected species.
Black widow spiders have the ability to produce 1000 offspring. Their chances of survival are extremely low and only few species of black widow spiders survive. Hence, black widow spider is r-selected species.
Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
Sound waves enter the outer ear and pass into the ear canal where the waves cause the eardrum to vibrate.
Hope this helps you.<3
I got you :)
The molecular clock (based on the molecular clock hypothesis (MCH)) is a technique in molecular evolution that uses fossil constraints and rates of molecular change to deduce the time in geologic history when two species or other taxa diverged. It is used to estimate the time of occurrence of events called speciation or radiation. The molecular data used for such calculations is usually nucleotide sequences for DNA or amino acid sequences for proteins. It is sometimes called a gene clock or evolutionary clock.
Answer:
C). Buffers
Explanation:
The given analogy can best be completed with 'buffers' as it similarly compares with the 'solution pH' like the comparison between 'shock absorbers' and 'vehicle movement.' <u><em>Like the 'shock absorbers' function to help in improvising the vehicle movement and ride quality by lowering the effect reverberations of traveling on a rough platform, similarly, the 'buffers' help in regulating the 'pH of a solution.</em></u>' Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
