Answer:

Malaria can be described as a disease which is caused by a parasitic organism. The Anopheles mosquito carries the parasite Plasmodium in it. When this mosquito bites a human being, the parasite gets transferred into the blood of the person causing malaria. Before entering the blood cells, the plasmodium travel to the liver where they get matured.

Malaria is a life-threatening disease which kills many humans each year, especially people living in underdeveloped countries.

How do mountain barriers modify rainfall patterns on Hawaii's Big Island and island of Maui?
Iteru [2.4K]

The explanation is given below

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hawaii's Big Island:

Mountain barriers play a significant role in modifying the air masses and topography affects the distribution of precipitation.

The orographic effect takes place on Hawaii's Big Island (i.e) the rising air makes the windward side of the mountains rainy and leeward side of the mountains dry.

Island of Maui:

In the Island of Maui, the high mean of rainfall is found on the windward side of the mountain slopes and the low mean of rainfall is found on the leeward lowlands and on upper slopes of the highest mountains.

Sandra drew an isosceles triangle that has an angle that measures 46 degrees. Which could be the measures of the other two angle
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

46 and 88° or 67 and 67°

Explanation:

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length and one other of a different length;

A triangle with such features also has 2 equal angles and one other;

If we consider that 46° is the angle that is not one of the two equal ones, then we can calculate the other two;

All angles in a triangle sum to 180, so:

180 - 46 = 134

The two remaining angles constitute 134° collectively;

If they are equal, each angle can be found like so:

¹³⁴/₂ = 67

Each of the two equal angles will be 67°;

Alternatively, if 46° is one of the two equal angles, then these two angles will be:
46 × 2 = 92

Then, the remaining angle can be found like so:

180 - 92 = 88

So the angles within the triangle are either:

46, 46 and 88°

or

46, 67 and 67°

The ecology question above says : A fast swimming strong body fish such as a swimming which is adapted to clear fast and strong
Dafna11 [192]

Correct question:  A fast swimming strong body fish such as a <u>salmon</u> which is adapted to clear fast and strong water current would most likely be found in which aquatic zone? Options in the attached file

Answer:

Source of a river zone

Explanation:

The fishes body is directly correlated with their environment and the pressures they receive from it. Those animals that are used to living in clear waters, with fast currents must be very strong, must have a hydrodynamic torpedo-like body and big and strong caudal fin to propel against the currents. These animals are used to living in water masses such as the source of a river zone.

Rivers belong to lotic environments, characterized by constant moving water.

  • Profundal zone: Sunlight can not reach this zone, so there are no plants. The Water movement is very limited, and in most cases, water is not clear.
  • Littoral zone: Is the transition zone, near the shore, where the light easily reaches the bottom. Usually, there is plenty of vegetation fixated to the bottom.
  • Wetland zone: In general these are calm water, very rich in diversity, and a proper breeding area for a wide variety of fish.
  • Source of a River zone: Rivers flow from higher to lower areas. They originate at the top of the mountains and fastly descend to finally end in a lake or in the sea.

Some species of salmons characterize by living in the sea during sexual maturity, but whenever they need to breed, they go back to the area where they were born. This is in sweet water. They swim in the river until they reach the place where they are going to oviposit. In order to do this, they need to swim against the current. Many times, females die trying to reach this special place.
