Answer: Tentacles are needed for night feeding

Explanation:

The mushroom coral is one of the most recognizable species of Hawaiian stony corals. It is named for its oval shape and the radiating skeletal walls (septa) that give this coral its mushroom-like appearance.

During the day, the mushroom coral provides nutrition for itself via photosynthetic activities with the aid of the zooxanthelae.

zalisa [80]

Answer:

El movimiento altersistema, y en ocasiones llamado como altermundismo o movimiento antiglobalización , es un amplio conjunto de movimientos sociales formado por activistas provenientes de distintas corrientes políticas, que a finales del siglo XX convergieron en la crítica social al proceso de globalización.

Existe cierta controversia sobre el término que define a este movimiento. Muchos de sus partidarios prefieren el término «altermundismo» o «alterglobalización», para evitar definirse por oposición, y porque el término «antiglobalización» daría una imagen imprecisa y negativa. El nombre altermundismo proviene precisamente del lema Otro mundo es posible, es un movimiento social heterogéneo compuesto por simpatizantes de muy variados perfiles, que proponen que la globalización y el desarrollo humano se basen en prioridad en los valores sociales y ambientales, en oposición a quienes los centran en el neoliberalismo económico, nacido en el Foro Social Mundial,[1] que cada año reúne a movimientos sociales de cientos de países del mundo.

El antiglobalismo acusa al actual proceso de globalización de beneficiar a las grandes multinacionales y a los países más ricos[2] acentuando la precarización del trabajo, y consolidando un modelo de desarrollo económico injusto e insostenible. También lo acusa de socavar la capacidad democrática de los Estados, entre otros aspectos negativos.[3][4][5]

Two cities are located at the same latitude (40°). City A is in the Southern Hemisphere and City B is in the Northern Hemisphere
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

City B of Northern Hemisphere

Explanation:

The major difference between the southern and northern hemisphere is that the southern hemisphere has more water than land. In that case, water heats up and cools faster in Southern hemisphere.

Whereas, in the northern hemisphere there are more lands than water, therefore, land heats up and cool faster. Land absorbs heats faster and releases same faster.  90% of world population lives in the northern hemisphere

The only division between the Southern and Northern hemisphere is the equator.

Base of above explained, there are much temperature variations in the northern hemisphere than in the southern hemisphere, because of large landmass and physical variation of various land forms. Northern hemisphere experiences extreme climate

City B in the northern hemisphere will have largest annual temperaure.
