The researchers present unshelled northern and southern periwinkles to northern and southern crabs in the second experiment to test if either population of periwinkles was unpalatable to either population of crabs.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

The researchers picked up crabs and periwinkles from the northern and the southern location of Gulf of Maine. Then an individual crab was inserted into hutch companied with 8 size variable periwinkles. Following four set-ups were organized, where crabs involved were of both gender but not size variable and these set-ups were analyzed 12-14 times:

  • Northern crab and periwinkles
  • Southern crab and periwinkles
  • Northern crab and southern periwinkles
  • Southern crab and northern periwinkles

After three days of experiment conclusion drawn was: southern crab killed more number of northern periwinkles when compared with rest three set-ups. While second is northern crab and northern periwinkles, third is southern crab and periwinkles and fourth is northern crab and southern periwinkles.

Now, same set-ups as above was organized but with unshelled northern and southern periwinkles and conclusion researchers found that crabs catered themselves with all unshelled periwinkles within 1 hour to test if either periwinkles population was unpalatable to either crabs population.

Earthworms don't have eyes like we do. Can earthworms respond to light?
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Claim 2: Earthworms can respond to light.

Explanation:

Yes, earthworms do not have eyes. However, sensory organs of animals isn't restricted to the eyes alone. Other sensory organs include, ears for hearing, nose for smelling and so on. In terms of response to light, the eyes as a sense organ comes into play. However, the skin is also a sense organ which has the ability to feel the effect of a phenomenon such as as heat or respond to touch. Because light produces heat, earthworms can respond to light through their skin. With their skin they can measure the intensity of light falling in them and adjust depending on their current body temperature.

Therefore, earthworms can respond to light with their skin.

Observando el mapa ¿que porcentaje corresponde a zonas de proteccion ambiental, ganaderia y agricultura?
olasank [31]

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

Desafortunadamente, se te olvidó incluir el mapa. Sin el mapa, no podemos ayudarte. No sabemos qué es lo que describe el mapa.

Sin embargo, con la idea de ayudarte, podemos comentarte lo siguiente en términos generales deseando que te sirva de algo.

Las zonas de protección ambiental, ganadería y agricultura tienen que ser perfectamente especificadas en los mapas para que la gente y los desarrolladores urbanos las respeten y no quieran pasar por encima de las leyes y edificar construcciones en lugares que están protegidos.

Para ello, las Secretarias de Medio Ambiente o los Departamentos de Conservación de Recursos Naturales, deben estar vigilando constantemente esas zonas protegidas porque de lo contrario, los desarrolladores urbanos comienzan la tala de árboles y la invasión de tierras ecológicamente protegidas.
