Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

A) There is a change in the environment: an antibiotic is added. Some of the bacteria adapt to the new environment. They survive and reproduce.

Explanation:

I. Variation: Different organisms manifest different appearances and behaviors. It depends whether it's a body size, hair color, certain marks on one's face, tone of the voice, number of offspring. Some attributes are the same in every individual: for example, everybody has two eyes, one mouth, one nose, etc.

II. Inheritance: Certain attributes are passed from a parent to an offspring. They are passed heritably, while some other attributes are very environmentally oriented and have nothing to do with inheritance, but the adapting to the environment.

In this phase, certain species produce more offspring and they are fighting for their survival. Due to that, major environmental changes occur as they produce more and more each time, which leads to struggling for resources, and it's further passed to the next generations.

III. Selection -- it's manifesting by the scheme where organisms who are better at adapting to the environmental changes have a bigger chance to mature. When they do, they reproduce and pass all the qualities to their offspring. Therefor, bacteria that is better at adapting to the new environmental changes, is more likely to survive and reproduce and it goes on like that in circles.

IV Population is growing bigger and bigger and as a result we have an evolution.

PLEASE HELP FAST in 150 words evaluate the impact of machine gun and poisonous gas on trench warfare including the effect of the

Brut [27]

Answer:

The machine-gun was one of the deadliest weapons of the Western Front, causing thousands of casualties. It was a relatively new weapon at the start of the war, but British and German forces soon realised its potential as a killing machine, especially when fired from a fixed defensive position.

The Vickers machine-gun (above) was famed for its reliability and could fire over 600 rounds per minute and had a range of 4,500 yards. With proper handling, it could sustain a rate of fire for hours. This was providing that a necessary supply of belted ammunition, spare barrels and cooling water was available. When there was no water to hand, soldiers would urinate in the water jacket to keep the gun cool!

Match the term in column 1 to the characteristics in column 2.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a) Mass wasting - 4) Landslides or other collapses

b) Heating and cooling - 2) Type of physical weathering

c) Dust bowl - 1) Severe farmland erosion

d) Oxidation - 3) Type of chemical weathering

Explanation:

a) Mass wasting is defined as the slope movement which causes the downslope of soil, sand, and rock under the influence of the force of gravity. So, mass wasting causes landslides and other collapses due to slope movement.

b) Heating and cooling or temperature changes is a type of physical weathering. Rocks expand at high temperatures (Hot) and contracts at lower temperature (Cool).

c) Dust bowl : When grasses in farmlands are not tightly rooted, the eroding soil led to massive dust bowl and blow the grasses in the farmlands.

d) Oxidation is a type of chemical weathering. Oxidation is defined as the reaction of a substance with oxygen, when oxygen reacts with rocks and soil, it forms oxides which result in weathering.

Hence, the correct answer is:

a) Mass wasting - 4) Landslides or other collapses

b) Heating and cooling - 2) Type of physical weathering

c) Dust bowl - 1) Severe farmland erosion

d) Oxidation - 3) Type of chemical weathering
