Answer:

II and III

Explanation:

A species is classified as endangered when it comes to a situation where the number of individuals within the species is so low that it might not be enough for it to reproduce properly and survive. Also, when species is listed as endangered, the chances are very high that the species will go extinct.

In order for the species to be saved, there are numerous methods that are used:

  • One thing is to make the hunting of the species illegal, usually making a very strict law that would fend off anyone tempted to do so.
  • Creating a special program for monitoring the species, where every individual will be tracked, constantly checked, and protected on the ground.
  • Any entry into the area where the species lives to be forbidden, except for scientific goals related to the species, and even for it to have a species permit.

Unfortunately, this doesn't always have the wanted effect, and despite all efforts some species go extinct, like it is the example with several species of rhinos in the past century. On the other hand, there are species that seem to be extremely resilient, and despite having very low numbers, they manage to survive, even if they don't have any particular rise in their populations, like it is the examples of the Iberian lynx and the Balkan lynx.

Very often, the method of breeding individuals in captivity of a species that is endangered is used. This is done so that there are controlled circumstances and no danger for the offspring, thus to maximize the chances of their survival. By using this method though, special programs are needed afterwards in order to prepare the young ones for life in the wilderness, which is not always successful.

What do v shaped contour lines indicate when they point downhill and when they point uphill
rjkz [21]

V shaped contour line pointing downhill indicate a ridge line, while the ones pointing uphill indicate a water flow.

Explanation:

The contour lines are one of the basic and most important elements on the maps. While in general they are associated with representing the elevation, they actually tell much more about the topography of a place. In a typical contour line, it is relatively common that the V shape occurs at particular places.

The V shape can be pointed downhill or uphill. The ones that point downhill are indicators of a ridge line, thus they show us the ridge more easily, so we can orientate better and have better representation of the area. The ones that point uphill, on the other hand, are indicators that there is a water flow, or there was a water flow. The rivers and streams with their erosive power manage to create such shapes in the relief, if viewed from above. The opening on the V is from where the water flows down.

Some of the types of contour lines are:

  • isopleths
  • isohyets
  • isobars
  • isobaths
  • isoterms
  • isonephs

kap26 [50]

Answer:

The equator experiences equal day and night  as the summer solstices has longest days in northern side and the winter has longest in the southern side.

Explanation:

  • As the summer have the solstice period in the northern hemisphere, the areas in the north gets most of the heat and sun days as that of the southern hemisphere and the reverse is true for the winter solstices that has maximum day in the south and less in the northern hemisphere as sun rays don't pass the 66.5 degrees latitude.
