A species of lizards migrates to a group of islands in the ocean. Over time, they diversified and evolved into several different

species. Each species has a unique jaw shape that allows it to eat its own specific diet. This is an example of:
A) gradualism because one species evolved into several different species over a relatively short amount of time.

B) adaptive radiation because one species evolved into several different forms that occupy different niches.

C) coevolution because the evolving lizard species changed in order to interact with the changing environment.

D) convergent evolution because one species evolved into multiple species that live alongside each other.

Intercostal nerves Group of answer choices are also known as cervical nerves. do not enter into a plexus and directly connect to
Natali [406]

Answer:

The correct answer is: do not enter into a plexus and directly connect to the structures they supply.

Explanation:

<u>The </u><u>anterior rami</u><u> of the thoracic spinal nerves </u><u>from T1 to T11</u><u> give birth to the </u><u>intercostal nerves</u>, which are part of the somatic nervous system.

The intercostal nerves supply the thoracic pleura and abdominal peritoneum, and they vary from the anterior rami of the other spinal nerves in that they each take their own path without forming a plexus, <em>directly connecting to the structures they supply</em>.

The intercostal nerves are derived from the somatic nervous system, unlike the autonomic nervous system nerves that innervate the visceral pleura of the thoracic cavity. They can govern muscle contractions and give sensory information about the skin and parietal pleura as a result of this. This explains why damage to the thoracic cavity's interior wall can be felt as a severe discomfort in the damaged area. Damage to the visceral pleura causes a pain that is not localized.

What type of attractions between water molecules occur because of water's diplor nature
leva [86]

Answer:

Explanation:

The barnacles are only able to attach themselves to surfaces in the water. Since the surface is limited, barnacles are attaching themselves to the other barnacles, crowding the rock. The muscles were not able to grow or attach themselves off the surface of the rock. Same thing with the mussels that are growing on the rock. So not only barnacles are crowding the rock, but Mussels as well are crowding the rock.
