In 1906, there was a small population of deer on the Kaibab Plateau. Because cows had overgrazed the food on the Kaibab Plateau,

the Forest Service decided to create a preserve on the Kaibab Plateau for the deer. In the preserve, the cows and the natural predators of the deer were removed. In 1920, the Forest Service discovered that the number of deer in the preserve was very large. By 1923, most of the deer were starving from a lack of food. Which statement best describes what happened on the Kaibab Plateau between 1906 and 1923? Overgrazing by cows caused the deer on the Kaibab Plateau to starve. The large growth and starvation of the deer population was an event of natural selection. With no natural predators to regulate the population, the deer population continued to grow. The growth of the deer population was slower than the growth of the food supply on the Plateau, causing starvation.

Answer: With no natural predators to regulate the population, the deer population continued to grow.

Explanation:

In 1906 a preserve was created for the deer. In creating this they drove both the cows as well as the deer's natural predators away. This meant that the deer population was no longer regulated by the predators hunting and eating them which led to an explosion in deer population.

The land which had been overgrazed at some point could not support this population and so the deer started starving because there simple wasn't enough food to support their population.

A crow flies 100 meters east in 5 minutes. What is the crow’s velocity?​
torisob [31]

<em>Answer:</em>  20 m/min east

<em>Explanation:</em>  The speed is distance divided by time

distance between start-point and end-point = 100 meters

<em>time to cover the distan</em>ce  =  5 minutes

100 m ÷ 5 min = 20 m/min east

y<u>ou have to add east since velocity is the measure of speed and direction and your answer needs to include the direction</u>

If a 250.0 mL sealed plastic bag starts out at a temperature of 19.0 °C and after sitting in the sun reaches a temperature of 60
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

If the pressure remains constant then the temperature and Volume are all that you have to consider.

Givens

T1 = 19oC = 19 + 273 = 292o K

T2 = 60oC = 60 + 273 = 333oK

V1 = 250 mL

V2 = x

Formula

V1/T1 = V2/T2

250/292 = x/333                

Solution.

The solves rather neatly.  Multiplly both sides by 333

250*333 / 292 = 333 *x / 333

Do the multiplication

250 * 333 / 292 = x

83250 / 292 = x

Divide by 292

x = 285.1 mL

The answer is D

Thomas thinks that acceleration means “speeding up.” Explain why this is incorrect.
klemol [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Thomas is incorrect because acceleration is a vector quantity that is defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity. An object is accelerating if it is changing its velocity.
