Answer:

(2) 8 ºC

Explanation:

The range of the temperatures from the uppermost layers of the ocean - around 100 to 150 m -, which in this case is 125 m, is not always constant as they fluctuate due to the atmospheric heating and cooling, and also due to seasonal variations.

However, if we base our answer on the table below, we would determinate that the approximate water temperature at a depth of 125 meters is 8 ºC (2). This is because, if we observe, the temperature at 100 m is 12 ºC, while at 150 m is 5 ºC. Therefore, the temperature at 125 m should be higher than 5 ºC and lower than 12 ºC, that is 8 ºC.

What qualities of metamorphic rocks make them very useful and desirable for building?
sashaice [31]

Slate starts out as shale under the surface of the Earth before its metamorphosis. It is typically gray in color and splits along long flat planes. It is also does not allow water or other liquids to pass through it. Slate is most often used as a roofing material, decorative gardening stone and a base for snooker tables. In the Victorian era, it was commonly used as a writing board.

Marble is another one of the metamorphic rocks and is a metamorphosed limestone. It has a hard crystalline rock appearance and was the stone of choice in ancient Greece. In fact, more than 22,000 tonnes of marble were used to build the ancient Greek Parthenon and marble remains a popular building and sculpture material today. It can also be ground down to make cleaning products or soaps.

Schist is another metamorphic rock that is formed from either mud or shale. However, it is formed at a much higher temperature than slate is. Schist is a fairly weak rock so it does not make for a good building material. It is used for paving and occasionally sculpture.

Which of the following does natural selection act directly upon? Alleles, genes, individual organisms, or mutations?
Inga [223]

Natural selection act directly upon <u>Alleles</u>

Explanation:

Genes, such as that of fur color, have many variants called alleles. Natural selection act on the alleles and chooses the best fit for an environment and eliminates the disadvantageous ones from the population over generations. Mutations are a rare occurrence that increases the number of allelic variants of a genes on which natural selection can act upon.
