The correct answer is 4. Plants.

Plants use carbon dioxide for the photosynthesis process where they use carbon dioxide to form energy rich molecules and release oxygen to the atmosphere. The carbon is present in atmosphere as carbon dioxide in higher concentration and methane in lower concentration. Carbon dioxide is removed by several processes such as by the formation of carbonic acid when the surface ocean water cool down and absorb more carbon dioxide near the poles, through conversion of the reduced carbon to carbonates or organic tissues like shells and by photosynthesis of plants which is an exchange process where plants absorb carbon dioxide and in turn release oxygen.

Genetic drift simulation: understanding evolution

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Genetic drift is a mechanism of evolution in which allele frequencies of a population change over generations due to chance (sampling error).

Genetic drift occurs in all populations of non-infinite size, but its effects are strongest in small populations.

Genetic drift may result in the loss of some alleles (including beneficial ones) and the fixation.

Genetic drift can have major effects when a population is sharply reduced in size by a natural disaster (bottleneck effect) or when a small group splits off from the main population to found a colony (founder effect).

Which theory of aging suggests people adjust to old age by maintaining ties with their past?

balandron [24]

The answer is continuity theory. According to this theory, adults in their later stages will maintain and conserve the activities, relationships, as well as behavior, as they did in the earlier stages of their lives. Older people try to maintain their lifestyle, and their past experiences influence the strategies which they adapt to adjust to the old age.
