Answer:

The correct answers are the statements 1st and 2nd.

Explanation:

A landslide refers to the movement of debris, rocks, or the earth down the slope. It refers to the down-slope rock and soil movement under the effect of gravity that causes enormous destruction to property and life on Earth.  

In order to restrict the occurrences of landslides, the native residents should try to minimize the loss of soil in order to limit the erosion of soil. Therefore, the best approach in the given case would be to do contour plowing and planting vegetation on the slope, as it helps in holding the soil.

Answer:

The correct answer is d. bottleneck effect

Explanation:

A bottleneck effect occurs when a large population of a species suddenly decreases in size due to some type of natural disaster like tsunami, earthquake, volcanic eruption, etc. This is a type of extreme genetic drift because in this many allele which was present in the old larger population might lost and the new population has less allele than previous population.

So here 98% of the population died in the earthquake and the remaining population has broader stripes on average than the initial population therefore here the squirrel population experienced bottleneck effect.

lana [24]

Answer:

Ox so it was cheese doodles night...She looked at her little girl who was about to become a teen. She tried to think back to when the girl had been younger but failed to pinpoint the exact moment when she had become a little too big to pick up and carry. It hit her all at once. She was no longer a little girl and she stood there speechless with fear, sadness, and pride all running through her at the same time.

The computer wouldn't start. She banged on the side and tried again. Nothing. She lifted it up and dropped it to the table. Still nothing. She banged her closed fist against the top. It was at this moment she saw the irony of trying to fix the machine with violence.

The trees, therefore, must be such old and primitive techniques that they thought nothing of them, deeming them so inconsequential that even savages like us would know of them and not be suspicious. At that, they probably didn't have too much time after they detected us orbiting and intending to land. And if that were true, there could be only one place where their civilization was hidden.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Pancreas.

Explanation:

Pancreas is an organ that acts as both exocrine as well as endocrine gland. As exocrine gland, it secretes digestive enzymes into the small intestine that help in digestion of complex food molecules.

As an endocrine gland, it secretes glucagon (from alpha cells) and insulin (from beta cells) hormones, directly into the bloodstream. Both of these hormones are responsible for the regulation of blood sugar level in the body.

Thus, the correct answer is 'pancreas.'
