3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1. adaption

Explanation:

Salmon have special adaptation behavior that allows them to live in both freshwater and saline water during their lives.

<u>Salmons are born in freshwater where they spend few months and then move to saline water. For laying eggs, they again move to freshwater because eggs are unable to survive in saline water due to a process known as osmoregulation.</u>

Moving from freshwater to ocean water, salmon adapt according to the environment for their survival.

Hence, the correct answer is "1. adaption"

The environment of organisms may change over time.

Thomas Malthus:

Thomas Malthus was not a biologist, but an economist who proposed the ideas that at the rate of the current population growth, human population would eventually suffer from famine and starvation.This would lead to the deaths of the weakest of the population. This idea inspired Darwin to formulate the idea of "the survival of the fittest".

Charles Lyell and James Hutton:

Charles Lyell and James Hutton were famous geologists who greatly influenced Darwin with their theories about the beginning and evolution of the Earth. Charles Lyell proposed that the present state of the Earth was a result of small, gradual changes. James Hutton theorized that the processes that too place at the beginning of the Earth were still in progress.

Lyell and Hutton's work paved the way for the formulation of the theory of natural selection.

Winds in our atmosphere are created as a result of which of the following processes?
shusha [124]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is D) Uneven heating of the air in the atmosphere</em>

Explanation:

Wind can simply be described as air which is moving or which is in motion. The uneven heating of the Earth's surface caused by the sun is the reason why winds occur. The difference in pressure of one area to another area causes the air to move and cause wind. The air tends to move from an area of higher pressure to an area of lower pressure and such is the movement of the wind.

The ratio of estrogen to progesterone remains constant throughout pregnancy into labor. false/true
Lady_Fox [76]

False,

In order to start labor, estrogen increases and progesterone decreases.

Estrogens are a class of hormones that are essential for women's healthy sexual and reproductive development. They are sex hormones as well. The majority of estrogen hormones are produced by a woman's ovaries, however minor quantities are also produced in modest amounts by the adrenal glands and fat cells.

Progesterone is a member of the progestin drug class (female hormones). By lowering the level of estrogen in the uterus, it functions as a component of hormone replacement treatment. By substituting for the natural progesterone that some women lack, it helps to initiate menstruation.
