Options:
- a lake
- a prairie
- the land an organic farmer uses to raise crops to feed his dairy cattle
- a large island in the tropics that has snowcapped mountains
Answer:
a large island in the tropics that has snowcapped mountains
Explanation:
The land a farmer uses is likely to be quite highly regulated in order to ensure that his dairy cattle thrive. That means the growth of certain plants will be controlled, and this will likely impact diversity.
A lake and a prairie could have diverse and balanced ecosystems. However, due to the limited habitat are likely only to harbour specific organisms. E.g. the lake will only harbor organisms that thrive in water environments.
A large island will, first of all, have a lot of space to support diversity. It is in the tropics, meaning it will have species suited to a hot and wet environment. Since it is an island, there will also be the involvement of sea/ocean dwelling creatures. However, there is also mountainous habitat that has snow, meaning it is high up and cold. This provides a habitat for even more species adapted to different environments.
Therefore, the island will be the most diverse.
A. A <u>wind vane</u> measures the wind direction and <u>anemometer</u> measures the wind speed.
B. When rising air cools, it can lead to clouds and precipitation because cool air can hold less water vapor.
C. Sinking air <u>warms</u> and causes evaporation of clouds, thus fair weather
D. Isobars means bars of equal pressure, ‘iso’ meaning ‘equal’ and ‘bar’ representing a unit of pressure, so together isobar means bars of equal pressure. Isobars or lines of equal pressure may be packed together indicating a <u>strong</u> pressure gradient
E. Pressure gradient is the difference in pressure between high and low pressure areas. The strongest winds are in areas where the pressure gradient is the <u>greatest</u>.
Explanation:
A wind vane is an instrument which spins according to the wind direction.
An anemometer is a meteorological instrument that measures the wind speed, direction and pressure.
Rising air cools while the sinking air warms according to the adiabatic cooling/warming principles. Warm air holds more moisture than cold air.
Isobars are unique features on a weather map represented by lines connecting areas with equal pressure gradients. According to the pressure gradients, the isobar spacing is arranged.
Sunlight is the energy source :)
Answer:
<h2>The virus is a bacteriophage that is reproducing the lysogenic cycle.</h2>
Explanation:
When bacteriophage infect the bacteria, it can enter one of two cycles i) lytic or ii) lysogenic cycle.
In lysogenic cycle, virus injects its genome into the bacterial chromosome, known as prophage and it replicates with bacrerial DNA. When conditions change, this prophage can remove itself from the bacterial DNA , and lysogenic cycle can change into lytic cycle.
