1 answer:

5 0

<span>Clouded Leopard are less abundant range wide than when last accessed in 2007. Some range countries have maintained status quo Clouded Leopard abundance, however, the majority of range countries have experienced moderate declines, with serious declines noted for Myanmar, Viet Nam and China. The causes of Clouded Leopard declines are attributed primarily to (1) direct exploitation, (2) range fragmentation, and (3) reduction in habitat quality. Clouded Leopard exploitation for pelts is well documented in several countries, including the infamous Tachilek market along the Thai–Myanmar border. The frequency of Clouded Leopard parts available at market indicates increased pressure from hunting (Oswell 2010). Ongoing deforestation in countries such as Myanmar and Cambodia is also leading to increased fragmentation and reduction of optimal habitat for Clouded Leopard.</span>

In terms of bonding, explain why silicate materials have relatively low densities.

Brilliant_brown [7]

<span>The bonds are covalent and, therefore, directional. They will only bond in one direction, which means that fewer electrons can bond to these materials, leading to a relatively low total number of electrons in the material, and therefore a lower overall density.</span>

tester [92]

Regulating basic biological needs is a function of the Hypothalamus. Hypothalamus is a part of the brain that has a vital role in controlling many bodily functions including the release of hormones from the pituitary gland. Cerebrum is the most superior and anterior part of the brain. It consists of two cerebral hemispheres separated by the flax cerebri of the dura mater, It is involved in reason, planning, memory, and sensory integration. Thalamus is a small structure within the brain located above the brain stem between the cerebral cortex and the midbrain and has extensive nerve connections to both. It relays motor and sensory signals to the cerebral cortex.
