1: Check the scale on your map. It should look something like a piece of a ruler. All maps are different. On your map, one centimeter could be equal to 100 kilometers or something like that.

2: Figure out how long the distance to the epicenter (in centimeters) is on your map. For example, say your map has a scale where one centimeter is equal to 100 kilometers. If the epicenter of the earthquake is 215 kilometers away, that equals 2.15 centimeters on the map.

3: Using your compass, draw a circle with a radius equal to the number you came up with in Step #2 (the radius is the distance from the center of a circle to its edge). The center of the circle will be the location of your seismograph. The epicenter of the earthquake is somewhere on the edge of that circle.

4:  Do the same thing for the distance to the epicenter that the other seismograms recorded (with the location of those seismographs at the center of their circles). All of the circles should overlap. The point where all of the circles overlap is the approximate epicenter of the earthquake.

How does the respiratory system affect the cardiovascular system
Anit [1.1K]

Blood is the fuel that keeps you going! Oxygenated blood is brought to organs and tissues via the arteries, while veins bring deoxygenated blood back to the heart to be replenished. The point is, without the respiratory system your blood would be useless.

The circulatory and respiratory systems work together to circulate blood and oxygen throughout the body. Air moves in and out of the lungs through the trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles. Blood moves in and out of the lungs through the pulmonary arteries and veins that connect to the heart.

Why groups of animals are found on some islands but not others?
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Wilson has created the theory of the biogeographic nature of the island, which predicts that the number of species on the island depends on the balance between colonization, the evolution of the novel island species, and extinction.

Explanation:

A new DNA sequence containing 596 species of terrestrial birds from 41 island chains (archipelagos) around the world has been assembled by the researchers. The data combined sample data from their own field visits, research, and field samples from GeneBank colleagues. This information was utilized to build and employ a dynamic model that predicted international relationships that regulate biodiversity variation in their novel analysis approaches. In that, they confirmed two main components of MacArthur and Wilson's initial biogeography theory on the island.

The understanding of biodiversity on the island is important to conservation but also has implications beyond that – when imposing barriers to species dispersal it could enable us to assess better the effects of human activities, and it can contribute to a wider understanding of biodiversity around the globe.
