The correct answer is (a) Solar Energy

The difference in temperature between the equator and pole of the earth results in formation of wind patterns. The difference in absorption of solar energy leads to buoyancy forces which results in rotation of earth. This rotation of earth causes the wind flow. Hence, the solar energy causes wind to flow which ultimately serves as a source of mechanical energy in wind.

<h2>Elk forested Area Avoid Riverbanks</h2>

Explanation:

  • Predators clearly can impact the size of prey species populaces through direct mortality, which, can impact all out scavenging pressure on explicit plant species or whole plant networks  
  • Predation hazard can likewise have populace ramifications for prey by expanding mortality, as indicated by the "predation delicate nourishment" theory  
  • The Gros Ventre River, which depletes around 600 square miles of eastern Jackson Hole and the mountains more remote east is the biggest waterway on the asylum. The generally wide stream diverts are vigorously meshed in territories where geologic materials are of low erosional opposition, just like the case on the shelter. The various rock bars in the river channel have next to zero vegetative spread, thus, of yearly flooding and disintegration
  • Hence, the right answer is "Elk tend to avoid riparian areas and wooded riverbanks"

Which molecule supplies chlorophyll with electrons
True [87]

In light reactions, a molecule of chlorophyll absorbs one photon of light, causing a chlorophyll electron to transfer to a higher energy level. The energized electrons from the chlorophyll molecules flow down a transportation chain to a compound called nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate or NADP.

A population is made up of individuals where 77 have the A1A1 genotype, 65 have the A1A2 genotype, and 123 have the A2A2 genotyp
lana [24]

Answer:

Frequency of allele A1- 0.41

Explanation:

In Hardy weinberg equilibrium,

P refers to the dominant allele

q refers to the recessive allele

The allele frequency will be p+q=1

The genotypic frequency is- P²+q²+2pq=1

P²= genotype of dominant trait ( A1A1)- 77

2pq= genotype of heterozygotes (2pq)- 65

q²= genotype of recessive trait (A2A2)-  123

Total number of offsprings= 77+  65+ 123

                                            = 265

Now to calculate allele frequency of A1=

\dfrac{\text{number of A1A1 offspring}}{ \text{total number of offspring}}+\dfrac{1}{2}(\dfrac{\text{number of A1A2 offspring}}{\text{total number of offspring}})

= 77/265 + 1/2( 65//265)

=  0.290+ 0.122

= 0.413

Thus, 0.41 is correct.
