Two students are planning an experiment that will test how planaria (aquatic flatworms) respond to different environments. They

will conduct two investigations—one that tests the worms’ responses to different water temperatures and one that tests the worms’ responses to different levels of acidity. Student 1 wants to buy two groups of flatworms and use a different group for each investigation. Student 2 thinks the same group of worms should be used for both investigations. Do you think either student’s method would give more accurate results? Why or why not? Explain your response.

Answer:

The Student 1's method would bring more accurate results.

Explanation:

Student 1 wishes to use 3 healthy worm groups. The first group goes to environments with different water temperatures and the second group goes to an environment with different levels of acidity. As both groups had the same level of health it is possible to compare well the difference of influence of each environment on these worms. In addition, the third group was not placed in any different environment, so it remains healthy, so when compared to groups 1 and 2, it will be possible to know the different influences that the environment provided to healthy worms.

On the other hand, Student 2's method would use a single group for all environments and this would not show reliable results because the worm would accumulate effects from all the environments in which it entered.

Student 1’s methods would be more accurate, because the student would control more factors. Only one variable at a time (either temperature or acidity) would be tested on each group of worms. On the other hand, Student 2 is testing both factors on all the worms, which could make the results unclear.

Sort the different barriers into their modes of reproductive isolation. A snail with a flat disc-like shell will not be able to
Stella [2.4K]

Answer/Explanation:

Types of reproductive isolation include: temporal, ecological, mechanical, and behavioural.

A snail with a flat disc-like shell will not be able to mate with a snail having a conical shell - this is an example of mechanical isolation, where the animals are physically unable to mate due to incompatible body shapes and sizes.

The reproductive organs of male bush babies do not match with the reproductive organs of females of other bush baby species. - this is another example of mechanical isolation, as the sexual organs will physically not allow reproduction between these species

The mating call of a cricket is not recognized by a cricket of other species - this is an example of behavioural isolation, which results from incompatible mating rituals. I.e. the animals do not respond to each others mating behaviours

The signals sent by a male firefly are not recognized by the female firefly of other species. - this is also an example of behavioural isolation.

Temporal isolation is where species cannot interact because they do not have the same mating seasons or are not active at the same type of day. ?Ecological isolation occurs when two species do not come into physical contact to one another because they access different areas of the habitat. E.g. mating zones, food sources or nesting sites.

Bas_tet [7]
<h2>Answer: </h2><h3>The correct answer is option C. </h3>

<h2>Explanation: </h2>

From the following question, the third option is right, because when the shining light create a horizontal beam over the spacecraft, the observer who is on the earth would see that light in the same way at the time spacecraft is at rest and when observer in the spacecraft at the time spacecraft is at rest.

So this is the correct answer.
