BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The correct order is: 6, 2, 5, 3, 1, 4

Explanation:

Siberian traps refers to the moment when the volcanoes of Siberia expelled a large amount of CO2 and HCl gases that are highly toxic and that promoted a mass extinction, that is, it caused the death of several living beings in a short period of time. This happened over 250 years ago and was caused by the steps:

It all started when volcanoes expelled large amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which contaminated the atmosphere and caused a rise in temperature, creating strong global warming. This caused a great warming of the surface of the seas, which caused them to evaporate in great intensity and lose large amounts of oxygen and become anaerobic environments, conducive to the growth of bacteria producing hydrogen sulfide, which is a very toxic gas. This gas was released into the atmosphere, killing several living beings intoxicated with the contaminated air.

<u>Gamma diversity </u>= the total species diversity in the landscape .

<u>Beta diversity</u> = the differentiation among the habitats .

<u>Alpha diversity </u>= the mean species diversity in sites , or at local scale .

The product of alpha diversity and beta diversity together gives the gamma diversity .

How do hurricanes form?​
jekas [21]

Answer; Hurricanes form when warm moist air over water begins to rise. The rising air is replaced by cooler air. This process continues to grow large clouds and thunderstorms. These thunderstorms continue to grow and begin to rotate thanks to earth's Coriolis Effect.

svetlana [45]

Answer:

1. Alexander Oparin's and J. B. S. Haldane's

2. Methane (CH4)

3. Simulate

4. Sparkling device

5. Lightning storm

6. brown broth rich in amino acids

7. Reducing

8. spontaneous organic compound

9. Amino acids.

Explanation:

Miller and Urey performed experiments to support the "Alexander Oparin's and J. B. S. Haldane's" hypothesis. In their experiment, they combined "Methane (CH4)," ammonia, hydrogen gas, and water in a closed system and "Simulate" it to mimic conditions on early Earth. After stimulating the system with a "Sparkling device" to mimic "Lightning Storm, " they discovered that "brown broth rich in amino acids" was produced. This suggests that early Earth had a "Reducing" atmosphere, leading to redox reactions that catalyzed the "spontaneous organic compound" synthesis of organic monomers such as "Amino acids."
