Following general conditions are necessary for natural selection to occur in population:
- More organisms are born than can survive.
- Organisms vary in their characteristics, even within a species.
- Differences in reproduction and survival are due to variation among organisms.
According to Charles Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, organisms that possess heritable traits that enable them to better adapt to their environment compared with other members of their species will be more likely to survive, reproduce, and pass more of their genes on to the next generation.
Galapagos Finches: The Galapagos finches studied by Darwin on his famous voyage are probably the most common example of natural selection.
An enzyme lowers the activation energy of a reaction so it can take place within living organism, so an enzyme is a biological catalyst.
Raynaud's phenomenon.
Scleroderma is a group of autoimmune diseases that may affect different parts of the body with special intensity in the skin. Some of the affected structures may be blood vessels. Because of this, when exposed to cold, vasoconstriction occurs and the Raynaud's phenomenon is manifested in the extremities of the body.
Answer:
In order to find average speed during each interval, we need to divide the distance during those intervals with the period of time. So, for the first interval (day 0 to day 2) hawksbill started from 0 and reached 10 kilometers by the end of the second day. That means that it crossed 10 kilometers in 2 days, so the average speed is 10/2 which is 5 km/day. Similarly, we can calculate speed for other intervals:
• day 2 - day 3: it went from 10 to 12 km in one day, which means it crossed 2 km in one day, so the average speed is 2/1 = 2 km/day
• day 3 - day 4: at the end of the third day it reached 12 km and at the end of the day 4 it remained at 12 km. That means the hawksbill wasn't moving in that interval so the speed was 0
• day 4 - day 5: it went from 12 km to 18 km, which means it crossed 18-12=6 km in one day, so the average speed is 6/1=6 km/day
• day 5 - day 6: it went from 18 to 24 km, which means it crossed 24-18=6 km in one day, so the speed was 6/1=6 km/day
So, to summarize, during the first interval turtle was moving with average speed of 5 km/day, then 2 km/day, in the third interval it wasn't moving and in the last two intervals, it moved in average speed of 6 km/day.
Science informs public policy and personal decisions on energy, conservation, agriculture, health, transportation, communication and exploration hope this helps :)
