Earth's temperature depends on the balance between energy entering and leaving the planet’s system. When incoming energy from the sun is absorbed by the Earth system, Earth warms. When the sun’s energy is reflected back into space, Earth avoids warming. When absorbed energy is released back into space, Earth cools. Many factors, both natural and human, can cause changes in Earth’s energy balance, including:

<span><span>Variations in the sun's energy reaching Earth</span><span>Changes in the reflectivity of Earth’s atmosphere and surface</span><span>Changes in the greenhouse effect, which affects the amount of heat retained by Earth’s atmosphere</span></span>

These factors have caused Earth’s climate to change many times.

There are three checkpoints in the cell cycle what is the role.
Tanzania [10]

The 3 checkpoints include G1 where the cell growth is checked, G2 where the integrity of the DNA/chromosome is checked, and M where the integrity of the metaphase plate is checked.

<h3>Cell cycle checkpoints</h3>

There are 3 regulatory checkpoints in the life cycle of cells:

  • G1: the size of the cell, the presence of growth factors, and the integrity of the DNA are checked before the cell irreversibly commits to division.
  • G2: the integrity of the DNA and the correctness of the replication process at the S-phase are checked.
  • M: correct attachment of the spindle fibers to the chromosomes at the metaphase plate is checked.

The basic building block of matter
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Scientists once thought the most fundamental building block of matter was a particle called the atom. Now we know that the atom is made of many smaller pieces, known as subatomic particles. Every atom contains a central core called the nucleus, made of particles called protons and neutrons.

Dimples are dominant. A dimpled man and a non-dimpled woman have 10 children, all dimpled. We might be tempted to assume that th
Nitella [24]

DD is homozygous dominant, the dominant allele will shown so they will have dimples.

<h3>Homozygous dominant:</h3>
  • When an organism is homozygous, it contains two copies of the same allele for a gene.
  • When two copies of the same dominant allele or two copies of the same recessive allele are present in an organism, it is said to be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive.
  • Homozygosity is the presence of two dominant alleles (AA) or two recessive alleles (aa).
  • The recessive allele is suppressed by the dominant one.

Heterozygous dominant:

  • The two distinct alleles in a heterozygous genotype interact with one another. This controls how their characteristics are shown.
  • This encounter frequently centers on dominance.
  • The stronger allele is referred to as "dominant," whilst the weaker allele is referred to as "recessive." The dominant allele covers up this recessive one.

In a species of snail, dark-shelled individuals are better hidden from bird predators in the shady forest, while light-shelled i
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

C. Disruptive Selection

Explanation:

Disruptive selection occurs when two extremes of continuous variation are favored more than intermediate traits.  

The extremes of continuous variation exhibited in this species of snail is the color of their shell which allows them to blend with the background of their habitat.  

The shady forest of the habitat makes the dark-shelled individuals to be better hidden from bird predators, while the light-shelled individuals are better hidden in well-lit brushy edge areas. This disruptive coloration exhibited by both individuals makes both individuals of this species of snail less vulnerable to predation.  

Both individuals of this species both extremities would naturally survive in this habitat as snails with intermediate extremities would be highly preyed on since there is no area of intermediate brightness in the habitat to make them invisible to predators
