How does species diversity vary with (a) latitude in terrestrial communities, (b) ocean depth, and (c) pollution?

Biology

Luda [366]3 years ago

Answer:

It varies greatly...

Explanation:

(a) Latitude is one of the main factors that pushes the evolution toward adaption to a environment. For example, at higher latitude, the diversity is a little low than on lower or average latitude due to the availability of resources that are easily available on ground level relatively.

(b) As we goo deep in ocean, the diversity of life increases as seen in graph but then after a peak point declines rapidly. This is because at normal depth life thrive in normal conditions of temperature and pressure but deep down low, the pressure of water is so intense that it can even crush lead. So, the little amount of organisms that are living in those depths are highly evolved to that intense environment...

(c) Pollution puts a opposite effect on diversity either it is air, water or ground type of pollution. Marine biodiversity take a great loss from chemicals waste as well as the ground animals in which the viable environment gets completely destroyed. This is the main cause of extinction of various animal and plants species.

If a blood cell is placed into a solution of 10M salt (highly salty) what would you expect to occur?
steposvetlana [31]
The blood cell will lose water and will undergo lysis.

Cell membrane is permeable to water and can get/lose water via osmosis. Osmosis is induced by the gradient of concentration of the solution. In this case, the 10M salt solution has a very high oncotic pressure that it will attract nearby water. That means the water inside the cells will be taken into the solution and cell will continue to shrink and then die.

Complex

Identical

Inconsistent

Non-testable

The Answer is Identical

Explanation:

The groups of scientists in different parts of the world who are dating fossils found in a rock layer of the same geologic time period. The findings have to have some common characteristics which links it to being in the same geologic time period.

This however validates the fossils having to be identical to match those found in other parts of the world.
