Answer:

Carbon dioxide from the atmosphere dissolves in the surface waters of the ocean.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis by tiny marine plants (phytoplankton) in the sunlit surface waters turns the carbon into organic matter.

Respiration from aquatic life lowers the carbon dioxide concentration in the oceans. Carbon dioxide dissolves more readily in water than in the atmosphere. Plankton at the surface funnel carbon from the atmosphere to the ocean.

The Florida Panther is the brown and gray species the puma family. For years a small population of the panther lived in the wood
Tasya [4]

The correct answer is - a. It will reduce genetic diversity.

The pumas that live in Florida, also known as the Florida Panthers, will have a much reduced genetic diversity. The reason for this is that the population is very small. It also lives in the same area, where the living conditions are the same. The genetic pool is very small, and the breeding is going on between individuals that have the same traits, and are also relatively closely related, as the mating occurs between the second or third generation that came out form the same parents. That will result in a very reduced genetic diversity, so the Florida Panther will remain the same if the conditions do not change drastically, or these an invasion of pumas from the west into their territory.

Cells in humans use energy from what?
vladimir1956 [14]
The liver primarily uses fatty acid oxidation for energy. Muscle cells use fatty acids, glucose, and amino acids as energy sources. Most cells use glucose for ATP synthesis, but there are other fuel molecules equally important for maintaining the body's equilibrium or homeostasis.

They are commonly found in things such as pasta, sweets, or anything similar, and give a lot of energy that gets quickly burned.


Explanation:

In food science and in several informal contexts, the term "carbohydrate" usually means that any food that's significantly wealthy within the advanced macro molecule starch (such as cereals, bread and pasta) or straightforward carbohydrates, like sugar (found in candy, jams, and desserts)

fomenos

Answer:

They can pass through the semi permeable membrane

Explanation:

The permeability of a particular solute depends on the size, solubility, properties etc and even the properties of the membrane it is aiming to pass through

If molecules are small enough, then they can pass through the semi-permeable membrane. This is as a result of permeability being inversely proportional to the molecule size.

What significance were the finches on the Galapagos Islands to Darwin’s theory?
Sonja [21]

People refer to "Darwin's finches" from time to time as a symbol of evolution in the Galapagos Islands, but the father of evolutionary theory actually dropped the ball on those birds, collecting better details on mockingbirds, tortoises and other species.

Charles Darwin's observations, notes and collected organisms from the Galapagos Islands during his 5-year voyage on the Beagle resulted in his theory of evolution by natural selection, one of the best substantiated theories in the history of science.

He collected several finch species, including the warbler finch, sharp-beaked finch, ground finch, small tree finch, large tree finch, common cactus finch and large ground finch.
