Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Lanark proposed a theory of evolution hinged on use and disuse of body parts. This is a theory that upholds the transfer of acquired traits to offsprings. Darwin's theory of evolution was rather based on natural selection or 'survival of the fittest'. Darwin's theory has more evidence backing it compared to Lamarck's theory. The field of genetics which appeared long after Darwin's death confirmed that inherited traits are indeed passed from parents to offsprings. These inherited traits are usually those that give organisms an edge over others in their environment.

Earthworms are brown and not green or beige because, the brown earthworms have the same colour as the soil and are better enabled to escape from predators. From Darwin's theory, the brown earthworms are the 'fittest' hence they survive in their environment. Lamarck's theory may approach the matter from the point that earthworms move with their bodies on the soil more frequently, hence they 'acquired' the brown colour and passed it on to their offspring.

From the activity, "Hiding in the Background", individual worms spent their entire life cycle in either green or beige colour. Their colour didn't change as a result of the environment where they lived, rather the green earthworms were more in number, not particularly because of any specific changes the earthworms themselves had undergone, but because most of their predators concentrated on eating the beige worms. As a result of this, there were many green worms when the next generation began compared to the number of beige worms. Hence, there were more green earthworms.

How a neutral object is different from a negatively charged object.
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Charged objects have an imbalance of charge - either more negative electrons than positive protons or vice versa. And neutral objects have a balance of charge - equal numbers of protons and electrons. ... Their presence (or absence) will have no direct bearing upon whether an object is charged or uncharged.

nignag [31]

Answer:

e) intensity of precipitation f) location of precipitation.

Explanation:

Doppler radar can see not only the precipitation in a thunderstorm (through its ability to reflect microwave energy, or reflectivity), but motion of the precipitation along the radar beam. In other words, it can measure how fast rain or hail is moving toward or away from the radar. From a volume scan (a series of 360-degree sweeps, each tilting a little higher than the last), forecasters can get a detailed look at structures and movements in storms close to the radar. The farther away from the radar a storm is, the more coarse the view, because: 1) The radar beam spreads out with distance, like a flashlight beam, causing small features to be missed at a distance; and 2) The beam shoots straight as the earth curves away from beneath -- a horizon that forces the radar to miss more and more of the low and middle levels of a storm with distance.

How would you solve the following geometry problem?: ∆PQR, find the measure of ∡P. In Triangle PQR where angle Q is a right angl
harina [27]
Your solution steps look correct, but the answer was not completed. Given that QR = 33.8 and PQ = 57.6, and Q is the right angle, then tan P = opposite / adjacent = QR / PQ = 33.8 / 57.6 = 0.586.
Then tan P = 0.586
Angle P = tan^-1 (0.586) = 30.4 degrees.

What changes in space result from the death of massive stars?
lana [24]

Whenever the fuel is being used up, a star explodes and the energy leakage from a star's core ceases.

Explanation:

The dying star expands in the "Red Giant," before even the inevitable collapse starts, due to nuclear reactions just outside of the core.

It becomes a white dwarf star when the star has almost the same density as the Sun. If it's much larger, a supernova explosion could take place and leave a neutron star away. However, if it is very large–at least three times the Sun's mass–the crumbling core of the star, nothing will ever stop it from crumbling. The star is imploding into a black hole, an endless gravitational loop in space.
