The species of plankton found in sediments and their isotope ratios can show the temperature of the overlying waters when the sediments were deposited.
Hello!
The type of selection which is illustrated by these two graphs is a
Stabilizing Selection
Among the different types of Natural Selection.
Stabilizing Selection is the one that happened to the parrot population in the rainforest in Costa Rica. This is characterized by the selection against the extremes of an attribute and reinforcement of the mean, that's why this type of selection is also called Selection towards the mean.
In this case, there was selection against the parrots with colored feathers other than green that didn't help them to camouflage in the rainforest.
Have a nice day!
Answer:
Anatomical differences between men contribute to an increased risk of ACL injury.
The width of the intercondylar notch in women is smaller than in men.
The transverse area of the ACL is more difficult in men, which may be a smaller diameter of the ACL in women may be a risk factor for rupture.
Additionally the Angle Q (angle between femur and pelvis), whose normal value is 8 to 17 °, is consistently higher in women because on average, the woman's pelvis is wider and the femur shorter than in men. The existence of an increased Q angle increases the medial stress on the knee ligaments.
Finally, in female athletes, the menstrual cycle produces early changes in the synthesis of fibroblasts and procollagen type I in the ACL.
To prevent, the thigh muscles (quadriceps and ischia) and the twins must be specifically worked on. It is also necessary to train the proprioceptive mechanisms of reflex response.
