Melting ice caps and glaciers
They are well at surviving because of their thick white coat. The white fur helps them blend in with the snow and ice. The polar bear also has a layer of fat under their skin so they can survive harsh temperatures.
The correct answer is: D) secretin
Gastric secretion is highly regulated whether its secretion should be increased (when food is eaten) or decresed (as the stomach empties). Secretion is controlled by the nervous system and endocrine system that work together. There are three phases of gastric secretory control:
Cephalic-by the brain
Gastric-by the stomach itself
Intestinal- by the small intestine
All of three can work simultaneously.
Secretin is released by duodenal enteroendocrine cells and it stimulates the pancreas and gall bladder, but also suppresss gastric secretion and motility. Secretion of the secretin is stimulated by the chime and it is the part of intestinal phase.
Answer:
Abiotic: Rocks, soil, sunlight, water (all these things are nonliving)
Biotic: Coyote, Carpet Moss, Lady Fern (all of these things are living)
C
A Land mass is large geographical area that is surrounded by oceans. Therefore this can be synonymous to continents.
Explanation:
The crust is divided into tectonic plates that are dynamic because they move on top of the semi-plastic mantle. The movement of the tectonic plates is driven by the convection currents of the mantle that drag along the crust above. The tectonic plates collide at convergent boundaries where tectonic plates are consumed as one is subsided into the mantle. On the other hand, new crust is formed at divergent boundaries where two tectonic plates move away from each other and magma rises from the mantle and cools into new crust.
The convection currents occurs because the lower mantle is hotter and less dense compared to the cooler denser upper mantle. Therefore the upper mantle always tends to sink as the lower mantle rises. These convection currents are the same as in any other fluids that are disproportionately heated.
