Answer:
A) With the closer spacing for the rows, the growing corn plants will quickly form a dense canopy of leaves, which will, by shading the ground, minimize the need for costly weed control and irrigation.
Explanation:
If the space among plants is less, the shadow that they are going to produce is going to reduce the need of water, so they production will rise and the cost to maintain the crops will be less, so the producer can double the profits.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
B is the most likely consequence because of the following facts we are told:
- After apple trees were introduced, some apple maggots began feeding from and laying their eggs on apple trees
- Adult apple maggots will only mate on the type of tree on which they were born.
This provides a geographical isolation (because they are feeding and laying eggs on separate trees) and reproductive isolation (because they will only mate on the type of tree on which they are born).
These two factors increase the chances that apple maggots feeding on apple trees will only encounter those who have mated on the same tree, and continue to mate this way. Over time, the populations (i.e. apple tree vs hawthorn tree) will intermix less and less. This will mean the genetic pool will become distinct, and natural selection will be acting differently (different habitats and different genes), encouraging speciation.
Answer: Atmosphere
Explanation:
Atmosphere is the part of the earth, known as the gaseous part, since it contains gases such as nitrogen (about 78%), oxygen (about 21%), Carbondioxide (about 0.03%), and rare gases to make the rest.
Thus, atmosphere contains the most whole of oxygen and carbon dioxide
Answer:
Pb has an atomic mass of 82. If an atom of that element has an atomic mass of 80, that atom is known as: an isotope.
