Cichlid fish are a type of freshwater fish that are found in warmer waters around the world. Approximately 10% of all bony fish

are cichlids. A single lake in Africa, like Lake Malawi, may have hundreds of species of cichlid in it. Different types of food resource are exploited by different species and different species live in varied lake ecosystems: see graph above. The cichlids range in size from 4 cm, small enough to live in a snail shell, to 90 cm. There are differences in morphology, particularly of feeding mechanisms, as well as many behavioral differences between the various species. Based on this information, all BUT ONE statement is true about the cichlids in Lake Malawi.
A) The cichlid species in Lake Malawi are niche specialists.
B) Specialists experience much competition for the resources they use.
C) The cichlid have evolved from a single ancestor through adaptive radiation.
D) Specialization has allowed multiple species to co-exist in the lake, thereby increasing biodiversity.

antiseptic1488 [7]
The glass with the alcohol will contain a mixture. This is because the melted ice will then be incorporated into the alcohol, creating a mixture of water and alcohol. However when the ice melts int he water, since ice is just frozen water, it the glass is still a pure substance because water is a pure substance and no other different substances have been added to it. <span />

Which is not a source of emerging diseases?
Illusion [34]

Answer:

The term "disease" refers to conditions that impair normal tissue function. For example, cystic fibrosis, atherosclerosis, and measles are all considered diseases. However, there are fundamentally different causes for each of these diseases. Cystic fibrosis (CF) is due to a specific genotype that results in impaired transport of chloride ions across cell membranes, leading to the production of abnormally thick mucus. Thus, CF is most accurately called a genetic or metabolic disease. Atherosclerosis, which can lead to heart attacks and strokes, may be considered a disease of aging, because it typically becomes a problem later in life after plaques of cholesterol have built up and partially blocked arteries. In contrast, measles is an infectious disease because it occurs when an individual contracts an outside agent, the measles virus. An infectious disease is a disease that is caused by the invasion of a host by agents whose activities harm the host's tissues (that is, they cause disease) and can be transmitted to other individuals (that is, they are infectious).

The height of the rider could be increased by the increase in force of water. The newton's third law says that every force has equal and opposite reactive force.

<h3>What is Newton's third law?</h3>

Newton's third law says that when two bodies interact, they apply equal and opposite force on each other.

In the jetpack rocket, the man goes higher due to the force applied by water in the down direction, and the man is going up according to the third law of Newton.

Thus, the height of the rider could be increased by the increase in force of water. The newton's third law says that every force has equal and opposite reactive force.
