Answer:
50 %
Explanation:
It is given that a woman gives birth to a baby boy. Her second child is also a baby boy. Now she is about to give birth to her third child. We have to determine the probability of the child to be a girl.
Here, the probability of the child to be a girl would be 50 % or 1 out of 2.
There are two possibilities and the possibilities would result a boy child or a girl child. So there are two possible outcomes and is equally likely with each child birth.
Also each child birth is an independent event, so the probability that the one results will occur do not depend on the previous births.
Answer:
The primary succession process can take hundreds of years to happen, even in medium amounts of rain and temperature.
Explanation:
The primary succession occurs when a community of plants begins to sprout in areas that have never been occupied by any type of living being. The primary succession occurs, for example, with the sprouting of vegetables in rocky outcrops. These plant species are known as primary species and although they are able to survive, these environments offer few resources for the development of living things. Generally, it takes hundreds and even thousands of years for primary succession to occur, even in environments with average temperature and precipitation.
The hotspots are regions, where the plumes of magma are present just below the lithosphere. The plume of the magma is the particles of the volcano and the gases, which is erupted during the volcanic eruption. It is generated by the fragmentation of the magma. Once, it reaches the lithosphere, it get spreaded laterally.
The plumes at the hotspots are present just below the tectonic plates, a high temperature r heat and the low pressure causes the rocks present in the lithosphere to melt resulting in volcanic eruption. At hotspot, the melting of rock takes time, sometimes it is very slow, due to the presence of various tectonic plates. Hence, the plumes can remain stationary for a very long period of time without erupting.
So, the first blank can be filled with Lithosphere and the second blank can be filled with Stationary.
