This question can be answered by deduction. The first thing to note is that 30mm of rainfall each year is VERY LOW, barely 3 centimeters of water in a year. Immediately we can discount polar and moderate climates. This leaves us with continental or dry climate.

A characteristic feature of continental climates is dry (i.e. low rainfall) and hot summers, cool winters. Looking at the temperatures in Tim's city we can conclude that this is a fit for a continental climate. So the answer is A.

Elden [556K]

The answer is C. This is because the other choices involve experiences (most during childhood a significant phase in humans development) that are environmental factors that impact on the human personality. In choice C, there is little development since its adulthood phase and on the other hand, refusing to display warmth and emotion is not an experience.

A man who smokes heavily has developed lung cancer. The tobacco smoke has caused mutations in some of the cells in his lungs, ma
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is: B. If he inherited a mutation which made him more susceptible to lung cancer, it may have been present in some of the gametes he produced and passed to his children.

Explanation:

  • The inheritance of genes from the parents to the offspring is mediated by the germinal cells or sex cells or gametes of the parents.
  • The genetic material present in the somatic cells of the parents are not transmitted to the offspring.
  • In the given case, the man who develops lung cancer generates some tobacco smoke induced mutations in some of the cells of his lungs.
  • The cells of the lungs are type up of somatic cells. Hence, any mutations in the genome of these cells will never be transmitted to the offspring.
  • Therefore, the children of the man will never become prone to develop lung cancer due to development of mutations in the lung cells of the man.
  • However, if the man has inherited any mutation from his parents which can increase the risk of development of lung cancer, then these mutations will be present in his germinal cells and also in some of his gametes.
  • Now, if a child is born due to the fusion of the the maternal gamete with one of these mutated paternal gametes, there is an increased chance of developing lung cancer in the child, irrespective of the fact whether he is a smoker or a non-smoker.

Producers are usually the first organisms listed in a food chain. They provide energy to the other organisms in the food chain.
Sliva [168]

Hi!

The answer is C. The Sun

The energy that producers get from the sun, along with water, allows them to begin photosynthesis, the process in which they make their food, because they are not able to absorb other forms of energy because they are plants.

I hope this helps!!
