Answer:

B. Is curved

Explanation:

Earth surface is curved, not flat. Due to the curved earth surface, some part of the earth surface gets direct and straight solar radiations than others.

For example, the regions located near equator get direct and straight solar radiations imparting them higher temperature. On the other hand, the regions near poles obtain slant solar radiations. This is the reason that polar regions have colder climatic conditions.

A population of 20 monarch butterfly is colonize a meadow. The meadows carrying capacity for a monarch butterfly's is 5000 indiv
Tanya [424]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

A.

The population grows exponentially until it approaches 5,000 individuals, and then the population size begins to decrease.

B.

The population grows exponentially until it approaches 5,000 individuals, and then its growth rate decreases.

C.

The population grows at a constant rate until it approaches 5,000 individuals, and then its growth rate increases.

D.

The population grows at a constant rate until it approaches 5,000 individuals, and then the population size remains stable.

The statement that best described the growth rate of the Monarch butterfly after the Meadow was colonized would be that <u>the population grows at a constant rate until it approaches 5,000 individuals, and then the population size remains stable.</u>

<em>The carrying capacity generally represents the maximum number of individuals of a particular species an environment can support based on the resources that the environment has. Ideally, the population only stabilizes with very minimal oscillation around the carrying capacity. It neither decreases nor increases significantly unless a major disruption happens.</em>

The only option that addresses the stability of populations around the carrying capacity of the environment is option D.

The correct answer is D.

Many closely related species of ducks have different courtship dances that are performed to solidify a pair-bond. If you were to
damaskus [11]

Answer:

I would expect to see a new phenotype in which the new duck hybrid species would express a new mixed courtship dance with the behaviors of both parentals.  

Explanation:

The cross between both parentals, each from different species, might produce a new phenotype that exhibits both parental dances. The new dance might be considered a hybrid of the parental dances.

Genetically speaking, we can think that there is a gene codifying for the courtship behavior in one species and another gene expressing a different courtship behavior in the other species. This cross´ product would be a hybrid species that exhibits a part of both parentals´ behaviors.
