<span>This is an example of a moral dilemma. A moral dilemma is a situation where you are asked to choose between two different situations in which moral reasoning is required in your decision making. Here, the moral reasoning comes down to killing animals for the benefit of human life.</span>

the skull forms a solid sheet of protection and the ribs form a cage. why do you think the rib cage is not a solid sheet like th
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

I think the the ribs are not a solid sheet because they need to be able to expand so the lungs can get an adequate amount of air in the lungs. The brain just needs to be protected and doesn’t need to expand so it’s a solid sheet. The skull seems to be the better protector at first because the ribs can break and puncture a lung, harming your breathing but if you do hit your head your brain can start swelling and the skull doesn’t allow any room for expansion. Head injuries are much more dangerous, especially if the brain starts swelling. Rib injuries seem much simpler to fix and less dangerous.

If you can, visit a ranch! It would be best if you can create this project from what you experience on a ranch. If that is not p
dybincka [34]

Answer:

The feasibility and profitability of game ranching have been amply demonstrated by a number of studies. The rationale behind advocating game ranching in Africa is that conditions in many parts of' the continent, whether resulting from inadequate rainfall or presence of certain disease organisms' are not appropriate for production of exotic cattle and other domestic stocks. Indigenous wild animal species on the other hand have evolved in the African ecosystem and are better adapted to the prevailing conditions and should therefore be more productive.

Game ranching is currently most developed in southern Africa (particularly South Africa Namibia and Zimbabwe), although a private game ranch, the Galana Ranch, was established in Kenya in the 1970s (King and Heath, 1975; Thresher, 1980). The ranch initially focused on three species: the fringe eared oryx, Oryx beisa callotis, the African buffalo and the eland. Reported advantages of the eland over the Boran cattle included much lower water requirement, faster breeding and growth, earlier maturity and ability to put on weight in grazing conditions under which the Boran cattle began to lose weight and approximately 14 % higher dressing out weight. In addition to these biological and physiological advantages a cost-benefit analysis of maintaining a breeding herd of 11,000 oryx and 5000 Boran on the ranch showed clearly that the financial returns on the oryx was far superior to that of cattle (Thresher, 1980).

Neko [114]

Answer:

Which was the earliest multicellular organism that developed in the presence of oxygen?
Ghella [55]
<span>Presence of oxygen means that the organisms are not anaerobic so the answer is D. algae. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells can be anaerobic meaning that they live in circumstances where there's no oxygen. Algae were the first that required oxygen to thrive. Cyanobacteria are like other bacteria parts of the prokaryotic cell type.</span>
