<span>The term is polysomy. The prefix "poly-" means many and "somy" has to do with chromosomes. So, polysomy means that there is an extra chromosome. This abnormality occurs not only in humans, but also in plants, fungi, etc.</span>

Scientists claim that global climate change is threatening many species with extinction. Which statement provides the strongest
solniwko [45]

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The animals that live on the earth in many different regions because they are adapted to live in a particular habitat. The animals of the polar regions cannot adjust living the Sahara desert and the reptiles living in the desert cannot live in polar regions.

But many of the species are dependent on the seasonal change and they only emergence or produce during specific period of time.

But if due to global climatic change there will be no emergence of particular species and their species will be extinct over a period of time. So, the global temperature needs to be constant in order to support life of the species dependent on the seasonal temperature change.

What factors affect how organisms are distributed in the ocean?
Sergeu [11.5K]

I'm pretty sure these include light availability, oxygen levels, water movement, salinity, density and pH. These conditions often vary from habitat to habitat and will either support or limit the life processes of the marine organisms living there.

Hopefully that's right.

At which type of tectonic plate boundary is a volcano least likely to occur?
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

Hotspot

Explanation:

Volcanoes can form in three different places: a convergent boundary, a divergent boundary, or a hot spot.

-At a convergent plate boundary, two plates collide and form a subduction zone. In the subduction zone, the denser, heavier plate goes below the more buoyant plate. The plate that goes under is subjected to immense heat and pressure and melts to form magma. This magma is less dense than the surrounding solid rock and rises to the surface through cracks in the plates to form a volcano.

- Volcanoes will form along divergent plate boundaries. A divergent boundary is when the plates move apart from each other. When the plates part, magma from under either plate rises and forms a volcano.

-A hotspot is the third place a volcano can form. This particular type is the least common. Hot spots are when thermal plumes from deep in the Earth rises. This heat, combined with the lower pressure at the bottom of the lithosphere, causes magma to form. The magma, as we discussed, is less dense than the surrounding solid crust and rises to the surface through cracks and channels and then erupts at the surface to form a volcano.
