How did seed availability affect traits of individuals in the medium ground finch population of the galapagos islands

Chemistry

vodomira [7]3 years ago
8 0
A little background may help understand this question better: The Galapagos Islands is home to a lot of species but particular interest here is only the finches and their beak sizes. We have the cactus finch that has a long beak well suited for accessing blossoms; the tree finch with parrot-shaped beaks suited for finding insects underneath the barks of trees; and, the ground finch with beaks suited for eating seeds.

Grant and colleagues studied the medium ground finch in order to observe natural selection at work. Medium ground finch were perfect to study because the only major factor that affected their hypothesized evolution was the climate, which <em>affected food availability. </em>The researchers observed that when food became scarce and only <em>large seeds were present</em><em>, </em>only the finch with bigger beaks were able to survive. Those with smaller beaks died of starvation because they could not eat the big seeds. Time went on, and when the researchers measure beak size, they found a significant change in size compared to previous generations.

Intermolecular forces do not have any effect on determining the physical properties of
djyliett [7]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The physical properties of melting point, boiling point, vapor pressure, evaporation, viscosity, surface tension, and solubility are related to the strength of attractive forces between molecules. These attractive forces are called Intermolecular Forces.

How many molecules are in 2.00 moles of h2o
Sedaia [141]
1 mole = 6.022×10^23 atoms. 1 water molecule = 2 Hydrogen atoms + 1 oxygen atom. So, 1 mole H2O = 1.2044×10^24 hydrogen atoms. Therefore 2 mole H2O will have 2.4088×10^24 hydrogen atoms.

Calculate the mass in grams for each of the following liquids.
WITCHER [35]
The density is calculated as mass per volume, so if we want to solve for mass, we would multiply density by volume.
For Part A: if we have a density of 0.69 g/mL, and a volume of 280 mL, multiplying these will give a mass of: (0.69 g/mL)(280 mL) = 193.2 g. Rounded to 2 significant figures, this is 190 g gasoline.
For Part B: if we have a density of 0.79 g/mL, and a volume of 190 mL, multiplying these will give a mass of: (0.79 g/mL)(190 mL) = 150.1 g. Rounded to 2 significant figures, this is equal to 150 g ethanol.
