Which of these naturalists synthesized a concept of natural selection independently of darwin?

1 answer:

8 0

The answer is Alfred Wallace.
Darwin began formulating his theory of natural selection in the late 1830s but he went on working silently on it for twenty years. He wanted to amass a wealth of evidence before publicly presenting his idea. During those years he corresponded briefly with Wallace (right), who was exploring the wildlife of South America and Asia. Wallace supplied Darwin's help publishing his own ideas on evolution. He sent Darwin his theory in 1858, which, to Darwin's shock, nearly replicated Darwin's own.

An inhibitory stimulus has occurred. B. Chemically gated potassium channels have opened. C. Excessive potassium has diffused out

andrezito [222]

Given question is incomplete. Complete question has been attached.

Answer:

C. Excessive potassium has diffused out causing hyperpolarization.

Explanation:

The nerve action potential can be divided into following stages:

Stimulus is detected by the cell in resting stage.
Sodium channels in the membrane open from where influx of sodium ions occur which is called depolarization
After a while, sodium channels close and potassium channels open from where efflux of potassium ions occur which is called repolarization.
The membrane potential further lowers due to continous efflux of potassium ions which is called hyperpolarization.
After a while potassium channels close and membrane returns to its resting stage.

In the given figure, stage 4 depicts hyperpolarization because the membrane potential has dropped to the lowest point below -70mV. Hence, option C is correct.

How does the function of the glottis help the frog survive?

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

This voice box occurs in all amphibians but is anatomically most complex in frogs. The larynx exits into the trachea; the latter bifurcates into the bronchi and then into the lungs. The glottis then opens, and elastic recoil of the lungs forces the pulmonary air out and over the new air in the buccopharyngeal pocket.

How did the backyard bird feeders in the article increase competition in that ecosystem?

Ronch [10]

Answer:

Backyard bird feeding is a well known type of human–untamed life communication in specific regions of the northern and southern side of the equator.

Explanation:

In territories where sustaining is mainstream in the Southern Hemisphere, supplemental encouraging may excessively profit acquainted winged creature species while driving with decreases of local species, possibly due to hetero specific competition.

However, Backyard bird feeders can bring about constructive outcomes on some feathered creature species, for example, improved overwinter endurance, expanded populace sizes and geographic range extension.
