  • decreases as altitude increases
  • results from a column of air pushing on an area
  • decreases due to fewer air particles pushing down

Pressure is the force exerted, by a substance, per unit area.

Explanation:

Pressure is given by the formulae;

P = F/ A

Whereby;

P = pressure

F = Force

A = area

Remember that ..

F = Ma

Whereby;

F = Force

M = mass

a = acceleration

Therefore pressure can be given as;

P = Ma / A

The mass of the above column of a substance multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity = pressure exerted by the substance.

How does anatomy provide evidence for evolution?
Alenkinab [10]
The study of comparative anatomy predates the modern study of evolution. Early evolutionary scientists like Buffon and Lamarck<span> used comparative anatomy to determine relationships between species. Organisms with similar structures, they argued, must have acquired these traits from a common ancestor. Today, comparative anatomy can serve as the first line of reasoning in determining the relatedness of species. However, there are many hidden dangers that make it necessary to support evidence from comparative anatomy with evidence from other fields of study.</span>
