Density dependent because the population was affected by the forest fire
____ [38]3 years ago
7 0

The correct answer is B. Density independent

Explanation:

In biology, factors that limit a population are known as density limiting factors. These factors are classified into density-dependent if they affect populations with a high density such as predation or food availability or as independent if they affect different populations of animals despite their density which includes mainly disasters such as fires or floods.

This means the forest fire described is a density-independent factor because the population of birds and trees were reduced or limited but this did not occur because of the density of the population as all species in the forest are affected no matter if the population if high or low.

How does the feild that surrounds the electromagnet differ from the Earths magnetic field
tino4ka555 [31]

The differences between the geomagnetism and electromagnetism are given below.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Geomagnetism is defined as the magnetic field that is located all around the earth. Whereas electromagnetism is defined as the magnetic field that is produced due to passing of electricity through a conductor.

The geomagnetism is formed because of the molten elements of iron etc which are present inside Earth's core, and are continuously moving. It mostly resembles the solid block magnet in its field characteristics. But electromagnetism is different. It can be changed according to the current input which isn't possible for Earth’s magnetic field.

Why is special creation not considered a scientific explanation for the diversity of life on earth?
Rufina [12.5K]
Special Creation is a term that can be interpreted a number of ways, just as evolution can. One interpretation called Young Earth Creationism, YEC, erroneously discounts much of the physics, chemistry, biology and wealth of data that science has observed. Most pronounced is the proposition that the universe is only ~<10 k years old. Because of this, it is not considered scientific. When applied to the diversity of life, YEC's believe all life is the result of special creation events made in less than one week of time, countering the long times for organism development and progression that science has observed. YECs account for the origin of all life through special creation, while science presently has no explanation naturalistically for the origin of life. YECs do not recognize evolution, science presently considers evolution through natural selection, as the source of all living entities. While evolution is fatally flawed in explaining how life has progressed, YECs compress all life development, despite the long period of time indicated scientifically.

An alternate special creation model accepts the long era of Earth formation and life's creation and progression, attributes the origin of life to God's intelligent designed cellular functionality, considers all of the fossil evidence showing stages of radiation events, stasis and extinction as God bioformed the Earth using common design for the eventual consciously intelligent humans.

A bird flies from its nest going north for 2 hours at a speed of
Strike441 [17]
Consider the nest to be (0,0)
The bird first flew 40 km (20x2) up and then 45km (15x3) left
So the final coordinates would be (40, -45)
