Biology

Alexus [3.1K]3 years ago

The two biggest reasons for the differences in the flora and fauna between India and Southeast Asia, despite being so close to each other are:

- Indian was a separate continent;

India was a separate landmass for millions of years, thus the evolution of the species on it went in isolation, creating new unique species, but also preserving some of the prehistoric ones. Even after the collision with the Eurasian plate, lot of those species managed to survive and prosper.

- There's a big natural barrier between the regions;

Between India and Southeast Asia there's very high mountain ranges. These mountain ranges have acted as a barrier for the movement of the species from one place to another, as not lot of species are able to cross high mountains in order to migrate to new territory.

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

D) India was a separate continent until forty-five million years ago.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>Continental drift serves as one of the evidence of evolution. Different kinds of animals and plants live in different parts of the world. This is true now, and it was true in the past. </u></em>
  • Therefore, when a fossils of the same animal or plant is found on different continents, then that is evidence that those two continents may have been a single continent when those fossils were formed.
  • Fossils show that the continents drifted because similar fossils were found where the continents were together millions of years ago.

Which activity produces the smallest amount of greenhouse gases?
tatuchka [14]

<u>Question</u>:

Which activity produces the smallest amount of greenhouse gases?

a. driving a car

b. riding a bicycle

c. cooking with gas

d. operating a generator

<u>Answer</u>:

Riding a bicycle produces the smallest amount of greenhouse gases

<u>Explanation</u>:

Cars and other heavy vehicles account for approximately 1/5th of the United States emissions, producing carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases such as methane and nitrous oxide. Cooking gas too produces a lot of carbon dioxide. Natural gas too basically consists methane in an odourless form and therefore when released produces greenhouse effects and in turn causes detrimental effects on the environment.

The generators that are used both at low scale and also in high level industries is known to produce toxic levels of carbon monoxide and methane. Compared to all these, a bicycle which produces greenhouse gases during its production does not release as much greenhouse gases and the rest.

maksim [4K]

Answer:

The urinary system consists of the ureters, kidneys,  bladder, and urethra, also known as the renal system or urinary tract. It performs several functions including:

1. Regulate blood volume and pressure: change the amount of water lost in urine, EPO (more bone marrow activates RBC) and Renin

2. Regulate concentrations of plasma ions: monitors potassium, sodium, and chloride ions lost through urine and calcium ion levels by calcitriol synthesis (osteoclast activity and prevents urinary loss)

3. Helps to regulate blood pH: monitor hydrogen ion loss and bicarbonate ions in urine

4. Conserve essential nutrients: preventing nutrient excretion when excreting agricultural wastes

5. Help to detoxify toxins in the liver
