Answer:

Fresh water represents only a small part of the water resources of the Earth. the fishes present in these ecosystem have high economical values and are beneficial to mankind. The evolution of these fishes is important because it will allow genetic varieties to arise in these fishes. Hence, these fishes will be able to survive and reproduce. Also, some of these fishes might adapt to live in salty environments in the course of evolution.

The large number of alveoli in lungs improve diffusion by ____.
nekit [7.7K]

Answer: a. Increasing the surface area for diffusion

Explanation:

When the air is inhaled through the nostrils, the air containing the oxygen the air diffuses inside the alveoli. The alveoli are the tiny sacs where air enters and exchange of gases takes place. From the alveoli the oxygen enters into the blood stream. The oxygen is utilized by the cells for respiration. The increase in network and number of the alveoli will increase the surface area for the diffusion of oxygen and hence, will speed up the respiration process.

Identify whether the following statements are true or false.
Advocard [28]

The True statements are.

Organisms in a population must compete for the resources as the resources are limited and the organism that compete and survives wins.

The best equipped organism survive which is known as the survival of the fittest.

Over the time due to challenges in the environment the beneficial variation takes place in the organisms and it spreads through the generations and then it gradually changes the whole population.

The false statement is Organism of the same species are equipped with the same survival skills.

The organism of the same species have some variation and because of this variation they compete and win against the other member of the same species.

Name and describe each star phase.
Inessa [10]
(A nebula)
is a cloud of gas (hydrogen) and dust in space. Nebulae are the birthplace biths. There are different types of nebula. An Emission Nebubla such as Orion nebula, glows brightly because the gas in it is energised by the stars that have already formed within it. 

(A star)
is a luminous globe of gas producing its own heat and light by nuclear reactions (nuclear fusion). They are born from nebulae and consist mostly of hydrogen and helium gas. 

(red giant)
This is a large bright star with a cool surface. It is formed during the later stages of the evolution of a star like the Sun, as it runs
out of hydrogen fuel at its centre.

(red dwarf)
These are very cool, faint and small stars, approximately one tenth the mass and diameter of the Sun. They burn very slowly and have estimated lifetimes of 100 billion years. 

(white dwarf)
This is very small, hot star, the last stage in the life cycle of a star like the Sun. White dwarfs have a mass similar to that of the Sun, but only 1% of the Sun's diameter; approximately the diameter of the Earth. 

(Black holes)
are believed to form from massive stars at the end of their life times. The gravitational pull in a black hole is so great that nothing can escape from it, not even light. The density of matter in a black hole cannot be measured.
