Darius is observing a family of geese, which includes a male goose, female goose, and several goslings. When a dog approaches th

e geese, the male goose hisses at the dog and flaps its wings threateningly.
Is the behavior of the male goose an example of an adaptation?

A. Yes, because the behavior is inherited and helps the goose and its offspring survive.
B. Yes, because the behavior is a response to another animal.
C. No, because adaptations are body structures, not behaviors.
D. Maybe, depending on whether or not the dog attacks the geese.

Answer:

A. Yes, its an inherited behaviour that helps the goose and its offspring to survive.

Explanation:

Adaptation could be a trait with a functional role in an individual or animal that is maintained and has also evolved as a result of natural selection.

The male goose hissing and wing flapping is an adaptive trait of scaring away predators.

One explanation for why our sense of smell and language are so disconnected is that
torisob [31]

Answer:

B. olfactory information is not integrated in the thalamus prior to processing in the cortex, and the two systems are primarily processed in opposite hemispheres.

Explanation:

The thalamus is the main source of sensory information to the primary sensory cortex except for the sense of smell. The olfactory information from the sensory neurons needs to pass through the thalamus in order to reach the primary sensory cortex. Moreover, different thalamic nuclei, i.e., different groups of packed neuronal cell bodies that form the thalamus, have been involved in language. A bilateral thalamic activation (with left greater than right thalamic activation), as well as the activation of cortical regions associated with the language, is observed during tasks related to language processing. Language information is processed within the left hemisphere, while the olfactory information is processed in the olfactory bulb which is located on the inferior (bottom) side of the cerebral hemispheres.

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer: B)  Predator/prey

=========================================================

Explanation:

The lynx is the predator that hunts and eats the snowshoe hare, which is the prey.

The graph shows that when the hare population is large, so is the predator population because they rely on the hares as a source of food. However, the more predators there are, the less prey there will be. This causes the prey population to decrease. In turn, this decrease causes the predator population to decrease as well. If there's less food, then some of the lynx population will starve to death.

At some point, the hare population will rebound and go back up due to less predators eating them. They have a better chance to survive. As the hare population goes up, so does the lynx population. They're both strongly linked together, and we have this cyclic pattern the graph indicates. You could say this is "the cycle of life" or "cycle of nature" so to speak.

This is a very simplistic viewpoint because it does not account for other factors such as other predators and other prey, and it also doesn't take account of things like habitat loss for instance. Despite that, such predator-prey models are still useful to understand the connection between the two species.

Deforestation leads to fewer plants being available to conduct photosynthesis. Which of these is a possible effect on the remain
Sever21 [200]

Deforestation leads to fewer plants being available to conduct photosynthesis. Less oxygen is available for cellular respiration is a possible effect on the remaining plant populations.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Deforestation and Photosynthesis are related to each other. Because if Deforestation occurs more photosynthesis will reduce.
  • Cutting and burning down of the trees causes deforestation as it affects photosynthesis. Plants prepare food using photosynthesis.
  • The plant takes carbon-di-oxide for the preparation of food and releases oxygen. Oxygen is required for every living thing in the world.
  • As now World goes on deforestation and it should be seriously stopped.
