Answer:
This means that the means height (which is all the sum of the height of all the students divided by their number ) is 205 cm. Standard deviation means how the height of the students deviates from this mean since students do vary in height and are not all the same height of 205 cm. Therefore, in this case, the amount of standard dispersion of the students' height is by 17 cm on either lower or higher side of the mean.
Answer:
The correct answer is option b. "Guppy color patterns would change; guppies would produce fewer but larger offspring; the nitrogen excretion rate would increase and the rate of growth of primary producers such as algae would increase".
Explanation:
The Trinidadian guppy is a species of fish with the scientific name <em>Poecilia reticulata</em>. Just like almost all species, its population is regulated for multiple factors, one of them being the presence of predators. The removal of Trinidadian guppy predators would result in multiple consequences:
- Guppy color patterns would change. The fish have a complex coloration determined largely by predation avoidance.
- Guppies would produce fewer but larger offspring. This adaptation has been proved in an experiment at which the fish was introduced one a low predation environment. The report proved that evolution can take place in less than 10 years.
- The nitrogen excretion rate would increase. It has been reported that predation reduce Trinidadian guppy nitrogen excretion by 40%. Removing the predators will case the nitrogen excretion rate to increase due to an increase in the fish food intake.
- The rate of growth of primary producers such as algae would increase. This is an effect of the increase of nitrogen excretion rate, which benefits algae population to growth.
Competitive advantages of apple were;
Apple preferred Horizontal and vertical integration around its products instead of licensing it or making it open market or sharing the technology.
Easy to use- they focused on ease of operation and simple user interface.
Facility of plug and play so that non-technical users do not face any issues.
Uniqueness and innovation in enhancing consumer's digital life for example- Digital Hub- an advantage for consumers who were becoming entrenched in a digital lifestyle, using digital cameras, portable music players and digital camcorders and mobile phones.
Investment in R&D brought the key competitive advantage to apple.
