Answer:

Three types of dispersion: Even, clumped or contagious and random.

Explanation:

The three common patterns of population dispersion are even (the individuals in the population are located at about the same distance from one another, (like the creosotebush in the Chihuahuan desert), clumped or contagious (the organisms form groups, like gazelles or fish) and random in which the organisms are located where they are by chance, like some aquatic microorganisms. The most common one is clumped. A population may be caused to disperse in an evenly-spaced pattern because the organisms of the same species may decrease their fitness as they approach each other, like desert plants that compete for water. Creosotebush additionally produces chemicals that hinder seed germination thus decreasing the fitness of any plant that grows nearby even further.

These include clumped, even, and random. If individuals are evenly dispersed, they are located at equal intervals. If they are clumped, they are bunched together in clusters. Random dispersion means the location of each individual is determined by chance. The most common type of dispersion in nature is clumped.

Species a diverged from species b 60,000 years ago. On a particular gene, they have 15 nucleotide differences. How many nucleoti
a_sh-v [17]

The given question says that b species diverged around 60,000 year ago from species a. Since the divergence, they have a nucleotide difference of 15 nucleotide.

We need to find out the nucleotide difference in another 240,000 year, which means a total of 300,000 year since divergence.

The nucleotide difference in 60,000 years = 15 nucleotide.

The nucleotide difference in 1 year =\frac{15}{60,000}  nucleotide.

The nucleotide difference in 300,000 years = \frac{15}{60,000}\times 300,000 nucleotide.

The nucleotide difference in 300,000 years = 75 nucleotide.

Hence, after another 240,000 years or 300,000 years since divergence, the species and species b would show a difference of 75 nucleotide.

In another 240,000 years, there would be 60 nucleotide difference, as 15 of the nucleotide are already different in initial 60,000 years from the total of 75 nucleotide difference in 300,000 years. So, 60 (75-15) nucleotide difference would be observed in next 240,000 years.

Upon assessing the client's jaw, the nurse finds decreased range of motion and notes crepitus. what would the nurse suspect?
sashaice [31]
The nurse should suspect of a fractured jaw.

The crepitus is a common sign of bone fracture and it's heard when the fractured surfaces of two broken bones rub together.
Also If there is a severe jaw fracture, the patient might experience limited ability to move the jaw or be unable to move it at all.
