The answer is:

Echinodermata

The word echinodermata is Greek which literally means "Spiny Skin". Echinodermata is a phylum under kingdom animalia. Not all of them have spiny skins, but most of them do. Other characteristics would be their radially symmetric body. They have appendages that grow outward from the center. Examples of echinoderms would be sea stars and sea urchins.

Answer:

This is an example of "Disruptive selection".

Explanation:

Disruptive selection occurs when selective pressure favor homozygous. In equilibrium, the two alleles might be present or one of them might be lost. If an environment has two extremes, then in these environments, both alleles are presented in homozygous.

The disruptive selection causes an increase in the two types of extreme phenotypes over the intermediate forms. Limits between one extreme and the other are frequently very sharped. Individuals belonging to one phenotype can not live in the same area as individuals belonging to the other phenotype, due to the traits differences between them, competition, or predation.

Populations show two favored extreme phenotypes and a few individuals in the middle. Individuals who survive best are the ones who have traits on the extremes forms. Individuals in the middle are not successful at survival or reproduction.

Color is very important when it comes to camouflage. Dark green caterpillars that live in dark foliage and light green caterpillars that live in light foliage can hide from predators more effectively and will live the longest. Intermediate colored green caterpillars that don't camouflage or blend into either will be eaten more quickly.

Leto [7]

Answer: A. Alice can pour the water into a graduated cylinder to find the volume

Explanation: If you put water into a graduated cylinder, you get accurate numbers. This helps with the equation because estimating isn't always the best way to go. Putting a ruler in the water wont help because you don't know what number the water started at before the displacement. The thermometer won't work either because that is used for temperature.
