<u>Answer:</u>
An example situation of artificial selection is "More African elephants today naturally lack tusks compared to the elephant populations 100 years ago, because big game hunters sought elephants for ivory".
<u>Explanation:</u>
- The process of breeding animals to acquire the desired characteristics by the external means other than natural selection and behavior of animal itself is called as artificial selection.
- The first artificial selection was carried out by Darwin when he mated penguins that would have a higher chance of breeding.
- The practice of artificial selection was existing in human civilization a long time ago.
- This process was used to use wild animals and domestic animals in battles and other household works.
Answer:
Explanation:
Yes, for a couple of reasons.
1. Carbon connects easily with other carbons.
2. Carbon forms chemical that can change and connect with other carbons even in biology or especially in Biology. If you take a brown seen and plant it where it can get water and soil nutrients, to will come up as a green plant. Think about the chemistry that goes into that. Not only that, but there are mechanisms that tell the upper part of the plant that the roots can't supply any more growth. Isn't that something? All made from Carbon.
3. The human body is a mass of Carbon based chemicals and all cells there can have different functions. Amazing isn't it? I'm a fan of the diversity of our planet and its growth.
Answer:
The living things in an ecosystem are interdependent. This means that living things depend on their interactions with each other and also nonliving things for survival. For example, a tree depends on sunlight for energy and food. A snail depends on plants for food.
Answer:
In addition to altering plant communities, the study predicts climate change will change the ecological balance between interdependent and often endangered plant and animal species, reduce biodiversity and adversely affect Earth's water, energy, carbon, and other element cycles.

Answer:
<h2>
Gastrin: stomach,
</h2><h2>
CCK- SI,
</h2><h2>
Insulin- pancreas,
</h2><h2>
Glucagon-pancreas. etc</h2>
Explanation:
1. Gastrin: secreted by stomach stimulating activity of the stomach
,
2. CCK: secreted by SI stimulating secretion of pancreatic enzymes; contraction of gallbladder and pyloric sphincter and inhibitory effects on stomach
3. Secretin: secreted by SI if material entering SI is acidic, triggering secretion of HCO₃-
.
4. Insulin: produced by beta-cells of pancreas and
stimulates storage of glucose in liver and muscle and it causes re-uptake of glucose when blood-sugar is high, lowering blood sugar
5. Glucagon- produced by alpha-cells of pancreas and
it stimulates release of glucose from liver when blood-sugar is low, and results in raising blood sugar.
