Since 2000, melting ice from the continent totaled enough to raise sea levels globally by about four tenths of an inch, according to the report which relied on the work of 90 scientists. With what’s already baked into the atmosphere, faster melting land ice will likely add between 7.5 and 9.8 inches to earlier U.N. estimates by 2100, the report said. And because of its position downstream, in an area of “preferential excitement,” South Florida could experience rise at the high end as water sloshes around the planet, Kirtman said. “Think of it as pushing down the ocean [in Greenland]. The ocean is fluid, so it’s going to respond somewhere else and that somewhere else is down here,” he said. In South Florida, planners already confronting flooding from sea rise have been more aggressive in assessing sea rise.
Explanation:
Answer:
The typical story of reproduction is that males and females of an animal species do it sexually. Generally, that's what honeybees do, too. Sperm from a male drone fertilizes a queen's eggs, and she sends out a chemical signal, or pheromone, that renders worker bees, which are all female, sterile when they detect it.
Explanation:
In the Cape bee, female worker bees are able to reproduce asexually: they lay eggs that are essentially fertilized by their own DNA, which develop into new worker bees. The team sequenced the entire genomes of a sample of Cape bees and compared them with other populations of honeybees that reproduce normally
