Answer: A)They generate electricity by contact

Explanation: triboelectricity can be simply defined as a phenomenon where static electricity is produced when two different materials are vigorously and continuously rubbed or come in contact with each other. This vigorous and continous contact allow electrons to jump from one material (atom) to another there by creating static electricity.

This characteristics is evident when an individual walks across a carpet while wearing a wool socks, as the wool and the carpet vigorously and continuously rub against one another, electrons are transfered from the carpet to the socks which spread all over the surface of the body. (The body becomes negativity charged while the carpet becomes positively charged) This is why the individual will feel a shock sensation when he or she goes on to touch the door knob due to the static electricity generated.

erastovalidia [21]

The correct answer is A. A burst of speciation

Explanation:

Adaptative radiation is part of evolution and occurs when a single organism or species diversify into a wide range of species (speciation), this process is called "adaptative" because the speciation occurs due to changes in the environment that make challenging survival usually due to the reduction of resources available and therefore organisms change to adapt to new conditions. Additionally, in adaptive radiation, the new organisms share traits with their common ancestor but also have different and unique traits. Considering this, it can be concluded adaptative radiation a burst of speciation.
