The earth's atmosphere consists mainly of nitrogen and oxygen with smaller proportions of other gases such as carbon dioxide. The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is maintained through a balance between processes such as photosynthesis, respiration and combustion. However this balance is being affected by human activities which are polluting the atmosphere.
The proportion of these gases in the atmosphere is as follows: nitrogen is the most abundant at 78%, oxygen is next at 21%, while others include carbon dioxide at 0.037% and argon at 0.9 % .
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Directional selection tends to evolve towards one specific trait. In this example, white rabbits no longer have a competitive advantage because of disappearing snow. This means they are more easily spotted by predators, resulting in reduced fitness and less chance they will live to reproductive age and pass their recessive white alleles on.
Natural selection will favor the gray colour allele, increasing the frequency oft this previously rare allele.
Extinction of species reduces the number of different species in ecosystems, hence lowering the diversity of living things.
Gluteus maximus ............
They help convert nitrogen to nitrate which is usable by living beings. (Living beings can't use regular nitrogen)
