Answer:

The correct answer is A. Sunlight.

Explanation:

The ocean contains many plants and protists that can make their food, such as phytoplankton. These organisms are photoautotrophs, which means that they need light to photosynthesize, otherwise they would not be able to produce primary production.  

Photosynthetic activity of marine organisms depends on luminous intensity, but solar light can only reach up to a certain depth in water, which is not much deeper than the surface. So every photoautotrophic organism must inhabit near the surface to get the necessary energy amount.

Each organism and species can live at different depth levels according to their needs, but all of them are restricted to the surface or near the surface because they need solar light.

How do researchers hope to understand healthy aging by the study of proteins?
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Of course, you could scan their driver’s license or look for signs of facial wrinkles and gray hair. But, as researchers just found in a new study, you also could get pretty close to the answer by doing a blood test.

Woman looking at herself in mirror That may seem surprising. But in a recent study in Nature Medicine, an NIH-funded research team was able to gauge a person’s age quite reliably by analyzing a blood sample for levels of a few hundred proteins. The results offer important new insights into what happens as we age.

Explanation:

For example, the team suggests that the biological aging process isn’t steady and appears to accelerate periodically — with the greatest bursts coming, on average, around ages 34, 60, and 78

A gecko is a type of reptile. How does a gecko most likely respond to cold air temperatures?
Tom [10]

Answer:

Your answer is D). Like most cold-blooded animals, geckos' bodies are unable to maintain a homeostatic body temperature on their own, therefore they must bask in the sun in order to increase their body heat, and hide in the shade when it's too hot.

Suppose that Zonosemata flies whose own wings had been clipped and reattached were attacked more frequently than untreated Zonos
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

(c)-All results for the experimental groups involving wing surgery would be invalid.  

Explanation:

The study researcher shown in the above question noted that flies that underwent wing surgery were more attacked than those that received no wing treatment. However, the researcher does not show the study variables and, consequently, does not show any relationship between the variables and the research result. For this reason, we can state that based on this result, all results for experimental groups involving wing surgery would be invalid.
