Biomes are described in terms of abiotic factors like soil type and climate, and biotic factors factors like plant and animal life.
1. Latitude and the heat transported by winds are two factors that affect global climate.
2. Other factors, among them an areas proximity to an ocean or mountain range also influence climate.
Body parts of unrelated organisms that serve the same function are examples of convergent evolution.
<span>Convergent evolution is the phenomenon when the different species independently create similar features. Those features can be structures that have similar form or function. This happens because organisms have been adapted to similar environments or ecological niches.</span>
B. It was an explanation for how the earth originated.
Answer:
d. alveolar ventilation rate
Explanation:
Alveolar Ventilation rate (AVR) refers to the rate of airflow that reaches the alveoli which is available for gas exchange with the blood in a given unit of time. AVR is generally calculated as the amount in millimeters of air expired that equilibrates (i.e., exchanges) with alveolar gas per min unit (ml/min). AVR is affected by breathing frequency, tidal volume ( i.e., the normal amount of air between inhalation and exhalation), and the amount of dead space in the lungs.
