Temp causes water to rise or sink through convection, and salinity affects the density of the water, so higher salinity water will contribute to deep water currents

Density is affected by temperature and salinity. Cold water or water with dissolved salts (higher salinity) is denser than warm water or water without dissolved salts (low or no salinity).

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

.It is lost as heat due to energy transformation.

Explanation:

When plants make sugar they convert light energy into chemical energy. The heat energy released is equivalent to the light energy which a plant requires to make sugar out of carbondioxide and water. During photosynthesis, energy of light is absorbed by chlorophyll and is lost as heat due to energy transformation. Oxygen is released as by products and diffuses out of the plant into the atmosphere.

Genes from parent to child remain the same in which type of reproduction?
lesya [120]
C coz asexual means no mixing gametes between male and female parents. Child and parent is GENETICALLY IDENTICAL. can be found in plants. Examples include rhizome and bulbs.
Sexual reproduction involves both sex and two (haploid) gametes produce one (diploid) zygote
Inbreeding reduce genetic diversity coz parents of similar gene sequence produce offspring. Never lead to genetically identical offsprings because of crossing over of non-sister chromatids in meiosis I, random assortment of chromosomes in meiosis I, random fusion of sperms and eggs during fertilisation and mutations.
Selective breeding does not interfere directly with gene contents, only select individuals with preferable traits for reproduction to increase the chance of producing offsprings with said traits. Other traits of parent and offspring could be different.
