Data was collected concerning Galapagos bird beak size over time. There are several species finches, and they are also known as

Darwin's Finches. These finches share the same habits and characteristics except for one; they all have different shaped and sized beaks. The differences in their beaks might be the most important aspect of their survival. Around 1977, there was a huge drop in finches with small beaks while there was a great increase in large-beaked birds. How can you explain this?

Finches adapt to the new conditions such as drought by changing the size, shape and depth of their beaks. Beak morphology varies according to drought conditions. Since after the drought, vegetation dries out and the hard, big, tough seeds remain, only the finches with deep beaks will survive. Finches adapt via their beaks to different foods sources and different local conditions.

Answer:

Darwin studied the finches which differed mainly in their beak shape and size.  These finches evolved with various beak sizes based on the availability of food. Long beaks would be helpful to pick the seed from the cactus fruits whereas short beaks would be helpful to feed on seeds at the ground level. The unavailability of food i.e seeds at the ground level would have caused such changes. Its survival of the fittest while adapting to their new or changed environment.

Gown

The nurse would put on the gown first when utilizing personal protective equipment (PPE). The nurse would then put on the mask, goggles, and gloves.

<h3>What is the sequence followed while wearing a personal protective equipment (PPE)?</h3>

STEP 1: GOWN

  • Cover the entire body, from the neck to the knees, the wrists to the end, and the back. 
  • Fasten around the waist and neck.

STEP 2: SHOE COVERS

  • Layer shoes with shoe covers on top.

STEP 3: GLOVES

  • Apply the first set of gloves and inspect them for tears.
  • Thumb hole made in lab coat
  • Thumb through opening in lab coat after pulling it over the hand
  • Put on a second set of gloves (extend to cover wrist)

STEP 4: MASK OR RESPIRATOR

  • As you cup the respirator in your hands, place the nosepiece there.
  • With the nosepiece up, place the respirator under your chin. Pull the top strap over your head, putting it at the back of your head.
  • Pull the bottom strap so that it is around your neck and just behind your ears.
  • Mold the nose using two hands.
  • Put both hands over the mask and take a forceful breath out.
  • If air leaks, adjust the mask.

STEP 5: GOGGLES OR FACE SHIELD

  • Put over face and eyes, then make adjustments to fit

When does fermentation take place in your muscle cells
Alja [10]

Normally, oxygen from the blood cells supply your muscles with the energy it needs to carry out certain actions. However, when there isn't enough oxygen to support the muscles, it produces lactic acid, or fermentation, to make up for the oxygen. (That's why you get that burn-y feeling whenever you exercise!)

How are fire extinguishers helpful?​
sesenic [268]

Answer:
Fire is one of humankind's oldest discoveries; it's also one of our biggest threats. A fire can destroy in a matter of minutes home or business that has taken decades to establish. That's why methods of putting out fires are so important. Many buildings are equipped with fire extinguishers, but why are there so many different kinds? What do they do to a fire? And how exactly do they work?

Fire extinguishers are helpful because they can save lives and property by putting out a small fire or suppressing it until the fire department arrives. Fire safety experts advise that you attempt to extinguish a fire only if you have first made sure that everyone else has left or is leaving the building, and that someone has called the fire department. Remember, lives are more important than property.

If those conditions have been met, you should pick up the fire extinguisher and attack the fire. Be careful to make sure that at all times your back is to a safe exit. You'll also want to make sure that the fire is confined to one area. If it begins to spread to other areas, such as walls and curtains, you should retreat from the room if there is a chance the fire could surround you.

You also want to beware of smoke. If the room begins to fill to the point that you can't see or breathe, you should retreat.


There are four main types of extinguishers and they work in slightly different ways:

Water extinguishers, which are the most common, are essentially tanks full of water, often with nitrogen or carbon dioxide as the propellant to make them come out. Water extinguishers work mainly by removing heat from the fire, though they also help to cut off a fire's oxygen supply.

Dry powder extinguishers are tanks of dry powder with compressed nitrogen as the propellant. In extinguishers like this, it's the composition of the chemical (rather than the mechanical design of the extinguisher) that really counts The powder is a specially designed mixture that absorbs heat, melts, and coats the fuel, stopping it from making flammable vapors and blocking out oxygen, so it's helping to tackle two sides of the fire triangle at once. The most widely used powder in extinguishers is monoammonium phosphate; other powder ingredients include the metal alkali salts sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and potassium bicarbonate (similar to sodium bicarbonate), though these are less effective on things like wood and paper fires.

Foam extinguishers are tanks of water and foam with compressed nitrogen as the propellant. They work by smothering the fire: when you spread a thin layer of foam over a fire, you cut the fuel off from the oxygen around it. Foam extinguishers also help to absorb heat, since the cool foam they release contains a lot of water.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) extinguishers contain a mixture of liquid and gaseous carbon dioxide (a nonflammable gas). CO2 is normally a gas at room temperature and pressure. It has to be stored under high pressure to make it a liquid. When you release the pressure, the gas expands enormously and makes a huge white jet. CO2 attacks the fire triangle in two ways: it smothers the oxygen and, when it turns from a liquid back to a gas, it "sucks" in a massive amount of heat from its surroundings (the latent heat of vaporization), which cools whatever you spray it on by removing heat.

how are fire extinguishers helpful?​
They are helpful because they can save lives and can help you get out of a sticky situation. The stuff inside the fire extinguishers could be water, water, and foaming agent mixture, dry powder, wet chemical or CO2 gas compressed into a liquid. Propellant – this is what forces the extinguishing agent out of the fire extinguisher. It is often compressed nitrogen gas.
