The answer is <span>D. The Plasmodium life cycle would be interrupted, and the infection could not be passed on.

Mosquitoes are necessary for malaria infection. According to the lyfe cycle, after infected mosquitoes bite a human, they inject saliva with sporozoites into the human circulatory system (stage A). The sporozoites enter human liver where they divide and schizonts are created. Schizonts give birth to merozoites (stage B). Merozoites are released into the bloodstream where invade red blood cells (stage C). Inside the red blood cells, they evolve into trophozoites, they into erythrocytic schizonts, and finally into a new generation of merozoites (stage D). After the red blood cells rupture, they are released into the blood stream (stage E). Therefore, if mosquitoes disappear, the first stage (stage A) will be missing, so the plasmodium life cycle will be interrupted.</span>

<em><u>Sample Response:</u></em> The data for the first part of the experiment support the first hypothesis. As the force applied to the cart increased, the acceleration of the cart increased. Since the increase in the applied force caused the increase in the cart's acceleration, force and acceleration are directly proportional to each other, which is in accordance with Newton's second law.

In winter many dogs grow a thick coat of fur. This is an example of
vesna_86 [32]
The answer is letter A. 

Dogs grow a thick coat fur during winter because they are adapting to change. Adaptations are the result of evolution in different living organisms. This process occurs amazingly through gene mutation but it takes a very long period in time. Adaptation processes occur to help species survive and thrive in the ecological balance of life.

Structural adaptations are physical features of an organism that adapted through time. An example of this is the thick coat of fur that dogs naturally grow to protect themselves from the change of the weather.
