When the Sun's energy moves through space, it reaches Earth's atmosphere and finally the surface. This radiant solar energy warms the atmosphere and becomes heat energy. This heat energy is transferred throughout the planet's systems in three ways: by radiation, conduction, and convection.

fomenos

Answer:

The artificial reef would decrease erosion of the coastline.

Explanation:

Artificial reefs are created in area where there is little uderwater topography or near established coral reefs to imitate or even substitute for natural coral reefs where they are absent or endangered due various factors which are mostly human in nature. The artificial serves to provide a habitat for marine organisms and ensure more biodiversity around the area by providing shelter from predation and surfaces for encrusting organisms such as corals and sponges to grow on. The growth of these lower level food chain organisms attract larger predator organisms thereby increasing the biodiversity in the area.

Artificial reefs are made from a variety of materials such as shipwrecks, construction debris, oil rigs, concrete, and any other man-made objects. Since reef structures protect shorelines against waves, artificial reefs would decrease the erosion of the coastline providing benefit to the people living along the coastline by preventing the destruction of beaches and coastal property,

What is the 95% CI for data set 2?
vesna_86 [32]

Answer: 20 ± 11.32

Explanation: <u>Confidence</u> <u>Interval</u> (CI) is an interval of values where there is a % certainty the true mean value lies in. For example, a 95% CI means there is a 95% certainty the true mean value lies in the interval.

For the data set 2, z-value for 95% confidence interval is z = 1.96

Formula to calculate CI is

x ± z\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }

where

x is mean

z is z-value

s is standard deviation

n is the sample number

Then:

20 ± 1.96\frac{10}{\sqrt{3} }

20 ± 1.96\frac{10}{1.7320}

20 ± \frac{19.6}{1.7320}

20 ± 11.32

The 95% CI is 20 ± 11.32, which means there is a 95% certainty the true value is between 8.68 and 31.32.

In garden peas, tallness (T) is dominant to shortness (t) and axial flowers (A) are dominant to terminal flowers (a). What are t
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is explained below:

Explanation:

  • According to the question, heterozygous tall, heterozygous axillary plant has the following genotype, TtAa.
  • It produces the following gametes: TA, Ta, tA, ta.
  • The heterozygous tall, terminal plant has the following genotype: Ttaa
  • It produces the following gametes: Ta, ta.
  • Crossing them,

           TA                       Ta                     tA                        ta

Ta      TTAa                   TTaa                 TtAa                   Ttaa

     (Tall, Axillary)    (Tall, Terminal)    (Tall, Axillary)    (Tall, Terminal)

ta       TtAa                    Ttaa                  ttAa                   ttaa

     (Tall, Axillary)     (Tall, Terminal)   (Short, Axillary)  (Short, Terminal)

  • The genotypes of the offspring obtained are: TTAa, TTaa, TtAa, Ttaa, ttAa and ttaa respectively.
  • The phenotypes obtained are:
  1. Tall, Axillary = 3.
  2. Tall, Terminal = 3.
  3. Short, Axillary = 1.
  4. Short, Terminal = 1.
