I would go with the answer E). Just because slavery ended years ago doesn't mean that's its still over even to this day, it use to be about gender as well back than where women couldn't vote but no one cares about that today, the things people care about is race because as the famous quote someone said, humans hate what they don't understand, so most races don't understand why people are all different, so they want to hate them since they don't understand and also get higher authority as well, but to get back to topic race is the most common thing today that encourages people to leave and migrate cause they might not feel welcome.
This question is not complete; here is the complete question:
A one-hectare pond is sampled in early September. The sample yields 1 small catfish as well as 17 benthic invertebrates that represent 10 species.
If the pond is resampled a year later, which of the following would best indicate that the pond had been adversely affected by adjacent development?
A. An uncommon species has become more numerous
B. An increase in low-tolerance species has occurred
C. A decrease in high-tolerance species has occurred
D. Phylogenetic diversity has occurred
E. The biodiversity of the pond has decreased
The answer to this question is E. The biodiversity of the pond has decreased
Explanation:
In ecology, an ecosystem can be affected by adjacent developments including human developments or even other ecosystems and this can lead to positive or negative consequences.
In this context, one example that shows the was an adverse effect is "The biodiversity of the pond has decreased" because the reduction in diversity represents a major thread for an ecosystem as this makes species more vulnerable to disappear. Also, this can be caused by factors such as pollution caused by human development or major predator of the adjacent ecosystem feeding on organisms in the main ecosystem. Besides this, in the first sample, there were multiple species and a reduction in the second sample shows the ecosystem was weakened.
From the given choice "C" is a true statement
about bullying.<span>
Types of bullying include physical, verbal, emotional, and
cyber bullying.
All of these are forms of bullying which is a mean and hurtful behavior, it
usually occurs due to imbalance of power or strength. It needs to be condemned
on a social level as it has ruined many lives as we see today.</span>
D. Weight
People who weigh more will generally have more water present in their bodies. This water has a dilution effect on alcohol that is consumed, resulting in lower blood alcohol content. If two people consume the same amount of alcohol, the person who weighs more will generally have a lower blood alcohol content if other factors are equal.
