Where does earthquake activity occur?

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

4. if if it can outcompete native species or If the species has evolved under great competition or predation

5. area of habitat connecting wildlife populations separated by human activities or structures

6. Habitat corridors allow movement between isolated populations, promoting increased genetic diversity, they also provide food and shelter for a variety of wildlife

7. Because of the trophic pyramid

8. the change in the frequency of an existing gene variant in a population

9. Models for biologists, geneticists and ecologists to understand extinctions

10. Mutualism is the interaction between two or more organisms where both organisms can benefit from the interaction and Commensalism is when two species interact, however only one benefits but the other is not harmed.

11. the first one is producer

the second one is a Primary Consumer

the third one is a secondary consumer (there are actually four so I will put that as well)

the fourth one is a Tertiary Consumer

13. An endangered species is a species that is very likely to become extinct in the near future

14. An invasive species is a species that negatively impact their environment for example, a lionfish

15. the THREE (I think your paper is mixed up a bit btw) types of biodiversity are Genetic diversity, species diversity, and ecological diversity

16. I am unsure of this one, sorry!

17. a keystone species is is a species that if they were removed from their ecosystem it would make a huge difference - the reason this is so important is because, a keystone species is an organism that helps define an entire ecosystem

Indicator species are organisms that can tell us about the levels of pollution in an area by their presence or absence- they are important to scientists because, they indicate the water quality of an ecosystem.

18. The difference between the two is that natural selection happens naturally, but selective breeding only occurs when humans intervene

19. No other species would be able to fill its ecological niche, the ecosystem would be forced to change

Explanation:

Sorry this took so long

also, I learned about all of this last year in Biology in my Freshman year of high school, good luck!

Explain the Theory of Plate Tectonics. Write a claim below that explains how the continents moved over time and introduces 3 pie

melomori [17]

Answer:

theory dealing with the dynamics of Earth’s outer shell—the lithosphere—that revolutionized Earth sciences by providing a uniform context for understanding mountain-building processes, volcanoes, and earthquakes as well as the evolution of Earth’s surface and reconstructing its past continents and oceans.

The concept of plate tectonics was formulated in the 1960s. According to the theory, Earth has a rigid outer layer, known as the lithosphere, which is typically about 100 km (60 miles) thick and overlies a plastic (moldable, partially molten) layer called the asthenosphere. The lithosphere is broken up into seven very large continental- and ocean-sized plates, six or seven medium-sized regional plates, and several small ones. These plates move relative to each other, typically at rates of 5 to 10 cm (2 to 4 inches) per year, and interact along their boundaries, where they converge, diverge, or slip past one another. Such interactions are thought to be responsible for most of Earth’s seismic and volcanic activity, although earthquakes and volcanoes can occur in plate interiors. Plate motions cause mountains to rise where plates push together, or converge, and continents to fracture and oceans to form where plates pull apart, or diverge. The continents are embedded in the plates and drift passively with them, which over millions of years results in significant changes in Earth’s geography.

The theory of plate tectonics is based on a broad synthesis of geologic and geophysical data. It is now almost universally accepted, and its adoption represents a true scientific revolution, analogous in its consequences to quantum mechanics in physics or the discovery of the genetic code in biology. Incorporating the much older idea of continental drift, as well as the concept of seafloor spreading, the theory of plate tectonics has provided an overarching framework in which to describe the past geography of continents and oceans, the processes controlling creation and destruction of landforms, and the evolution of Earth’s crust, atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and climates. During the late 20th and early 21st centuries, it became apparent that plate-tectonic processes profoundly influence the composition of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans, serve as a prime cause of long-term climate change, and make significant contributions to the chemical and physical environment in which life evolves.

Match each place with the region in which it is located

mel-nik [20]

It would help to attach a picture or explain the question better. How else are we supposed to know the places the question is talking about?

How did the sail impact the Mesopotamians?

ludmilkaskok [199]

<span>The Mesopotamians made sails to harness the wind to move boats, and eventually sailed and traded as far away as what is now India.
It allowed them to trade good with faraway lands</span>
