Although we think of land when we hear the word biome, there are also aquatic biomes. The abiotic factors that influence life fo

rms vary with location in the ocean. Oceanographers divide the ocean into five broad vertical zones as seen in the chart. Compare the abiotic characteristics of the five ocean zones. Which of these conclusions about life forms found in the zones is supported by the information in the chart?
A) Because of the severe abiotic conditions, there are no life forms found in the hadalpelagic zone.

B) The epipelagic zone is the only zone of the five zones where visible light and algae can be found.

C) The mesopelagic zone hosts a diverse zooplankton community instead of a phytoplankton or algae community and virtually no fish species.

D) Because there is no light in the abyssal zone, organisms feed on each other or the dead organic material, detritus, that falls into the abyssal zone from above.

Answer:

B) and D) are the correct answers

Explanation:

Hadalpelagic zone contains life such as amphipods , snailfishes  and cusk-eels.

Epipelagic zone is the ONLY zone where visible light and algae can be found.  Lower than that the amount of light is  insufficient for plants to carry out  photosynthesis.

The mesopelagic zone has a diverse biological community that includes unique organisms adapted to live in a low-light environment including fish like

the blobfish, bristlemouths or the tasselled anglerfish.

What are the advantages of being a respiratory parasite (the tongue worms) over one in the digestive system (if any)?
Nata [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The parasites living at the respiratory system or tongue worms will hide under the soft tissues of the oral cavity, beneath the tongue and even beneath the throat or esophagus. These worms remain undetected during diagnosis. These worms are not subjected to the treatment of acids which worms in the digestive system are exposed to. Thus these worm parasites in the respiratory system or tongue survive comparatively for long as compared to the worms in the digestive system.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

(Cells in metaphase/total number of cells) x 24 hours = hours in metaphase

Explanation:

You need to find the proportion of the cells in metaphase to the total number of cells, and multiplying by 24 hours will then give you the number of hours spent in metaphase.

For a more concrete example:

11 metaphase/200 total = .055

.055 x 24 hours = 1.32 hours in metaphase

Which event is an example of genetic drift? An earthquake kills 90 percent of the green beetles in a population of green, black,
den301095 [7]
The answer is C. Genetic drift is the change of an allelic frequency due to random sampling in a population. When the brown and black bottles are preyed upon compared to the green bettles, their numbers in a population decrease. Therefore the next generations/offsprings of bettles population is more likely to be of green beetles since they will be more in the parent population. The allelic frequency of the allele for green bettles becomes higher than that of brown and black beetles. Eventually, after generations, the black and brown beetles may be eliminated from the population
