Answer:
When starfish were removed from their environment, the species richness of that area went down. This was because the starfish ate the mussels, and when the starfish were removed, the mussels became abundant and preyed on many of the other species.
This experiment showed that the starfish were a keystone species. A keystone species is a species that has a low biomass but a large impact on the community they are living in.
Answer:
Villi
Explanation:
In the small intestine, villi are found present. These villi which appear like a finger-like tissue structure are about 0.5–1.6mm in length in human beings.They have mucosal cells that help in absorption of nutrients. A villus has several microvilli, which increases the surface area of the intestinal wall for faster absorption of nutrients.
Adaptations help the survival of a species as "It increases the biodiversity of the species".
<u>Answer:</u> Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
The phenomenon that support the organisms to find similar and favourable environment to acquire food, build home, satisfy with weather, feel safe and attract mates to produce more offspring in order to improve evolutionary fitness is called as an "Adaptation".
The three main forms of adaptations are behavioural, structural, and physiological adaptations that are based on the way how genetic variation get communicated. Many species have all those types of combinations. For an instance, behavioural adaptations are bird's calling and migration.
Answer is at the very end
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of the asteroid = 10 x 10⁹kg
Distance between the asteroid = 850km
Unknown:
Force = ?
Solution:
We can predict the outcome of this reduction in distance between the two masses using the newton's law of universal gravitation.
The law states that "the gravitational force of attraction between two masses is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distances between them".
Mathematically, we have;
F =
F is the gravitational force
G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹Nm²kg⁻²
m is the mass of the body
r is the distance between them.
From this, we know that as the separation increases, the force of gravitation will reduce since the mass is constant.
The distance between the two asteroids decreased from 1000km to 850km, this will increase the force of attraction between them and we expect the force to be higher than 6700N.
At 1000Km, force = 6700N,
since as the distance reduces the force increases, we expect the force to be about 9200N.
Let us verify this by plugging the values into the equation:
F =
F = 9200N
