Answer:

variations in great horned owl body size due to food supply can be acted on by natural selection.

Explanation:

Natural selection can help select great horned owl with smaller body size since it's an advantage in a place with smaller available food sources, compared to a bigger body size that will need more food. At first, birds with smaller body survive while those bigger ones die out, and the smaller birds pass on this genes to their offspring.

Answer:

variation in body size due to inherited traits can be acted on by natural selection

Explanation :

Variations in body size in body size due to inherited trait can be acted upon by natural selection by favoring the size that is best suited for the survival of the species. Those with these genes survive and pass it on to their offspring, while those with the unfavorable body size are wiped out.

Which cells or organs are considered to be part of both the immune and lymphatic systems? Select all that apply.

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

lymph nodes

tonsils and adenoids

thymus

Explanation:

-Arteries are the blood vessels that take the blood that contains oxygen from the heart to the tissues and are part of the circulatory system.

-Lymph nodes are glands that take care of filtering the fluid that goes through the lympathic system and are also important for the functioning of the immune system.

-Capillaries are blood vessels that connect the veins and arteries and are part of the circulatory system.

-Tonsils and adenoids are located in the throat and they help protect the body from diseases and they are part of immune system and the lympathic system.

-Veins are the vessels that take the blood to the heart and they are part of the circulatory system.

-Thymus is an organ in which the T cells develop and they help protect the body against virus and bacteria and it is part of the immune and lympathic systems.

According to this, cells or organs that are considered to be part of both the immune and lymphatic systems are:

lymph nodes

tonsils and adenoids

thymus

An electric heater has a Nichrome heating element with a resistance of 9 Ω at 20oC. When 112 V are applied, the electric current

maw [93]

Answer:

975.28 W.

Explanation:

Using,

R' = R(1+αΔt)....................... Equation 1

Where R' = Resistance at the final temperature, R = Resistance at the initial temperature, α = temperature coefficient of resistivity of Nichorome, Δt = Temperature rise.

Given: R = 9 Ω, α = 0.0004/°C, Δt = 1090-20 = 1070 °C

Substitute into equation 1

R' = 9(1+0.0004×1070)

R' = 9(1.428)

R' = 12.862 Ω.

Note: Operating wattage of the heater means the operating power of the heater

The power of the heater is given as,

P = V²/R'...................... Equation 2

Where P = Operating wattage of the heater, V = Voltage, R' = Operating resistance.

Given: V = 112 V, R' = 12.862 Ω

Substitute into equation 2

P = 112²/12.862

P = 975.28 W.
