Answer:

A. Some speculate that they were blown out to the islands by a massive storm

Explanation:

The common rosefinches are thought to have arrived on the Hawaii islands between 6 and 7 million years ago. As the common rosefinches are not big birds and they can not fly over very long distances, the scientists believe that it is a massive storm that blow some individuals to the Hawaii islands. This is nothing weird, as it has been witnessed numerous times how massive storms manage to carry some smaller birds to places where they are not able to fly on their own. Once there, the birds encountered suitable conditions for living and lot of open niches in the food chain. This resulted in quick diversification of the common rosefinches, with members of the species gradually adapting to a particular niche, experiencing changes to be more competent, and creating numerous new species after some time.

erastova [34]

The right answer is ISOTONIC contraction (not isometric)


During an isotonic contraction, the length of the muscle varies but not the tension. For example, an athlete achieves (approximately) isotonic contraction when he lowers an extremely heavy weight, at a slow and constant speed, against maximum resistance.

1. Describe the clamming industry in the 1970 and how it used to be a serious business.
attashe74 [19]

The clamming industry in Long Island used to be very lucrative, raking in as much as $100 Million annually. By the 1970s, it had shrunk to less that $40 million per annum.

<h3>What was to blame for the decline according to the article mentioned above?</h3>

2. According to the New York Times Article of 1985, the reason for the steep decline in the value of the Clamming industry was related to the loss of confidence in the health safety of eating raw shellfish.

3. According to the remarkable discovery of the "208 Study", it was discovered that there was a connection between land use and underground water quality. It was also discovered there was a negative impact of dumping sewers in the ocean on the production of shellfish

4. Some of the solutions that were proposed to manage this situation are:

  • Using sewers to collect effluents into a septic treatment plant. rather than dumping them into the ocean.
  • The implementation of secondary sewage treatment supplemented by ocean disposal of the effluents and
  • Monitoring the salinity levels of the clamp ecosystem.

Which part of the atp is the sugar
Simora [160]

The ATP molecule is composed of three components. At the centre is a sugar molecule, ribose (the same sugar that forms the basis of RNA). Attached to one side of this is a base (a group consisting of linked rings of carbon and nitrogen atoms); in this case the base is adenine.
