The correct answer is option C, that is a runoff.

The water from rain, snowmelt, or other sources is known as surface runoff, it flows over the land surface, and is a prime constituent of the water cycle. Runoff, which takes place on the surfaces prior to reaching a channel is also known as overland flow. When flowing of runoff takes place along the ground, it can pick up soil contaminants like pesticides, petroleum, or fertilizers, which turn into overland or discharged flow.

How would the population dynamics of the warbler species differ from what has been documented by s. sillett and colleagues? expl

velikii [3]

The population dynamics of the Warbler species differ from what's documented by Scott Sillett and colleagues one migration issues.
The Warbler species are non migratory species, while Scott Sillet and colleagues have been studying migratory species. The Warbler species were even taken to other islands, in some cases, in order to give them the security of additional breeding populations, this because their population dynamics is not a migratory one. The studied species by Scott Sillet and colleagues, on the other hand, have migratory population dynamics: they pass their Summer time in New Hampshire and and their Winter time in Jamaica.

Answer:

Option-

As many believe after doing an extensive form of research work of years that reptiles are the ancestors of the mammals that we see now. Which means that we mammals evolved from the pre-historic form of reptiles.

Explanation:

Fossils of Thrinaxodon, a species that lived during the Triassic period, have been found in both South Africa and Antarctica. Thrinaxodon had a reptile-like skeleton and laid eggs, but small depressions on the front of its skull suggest it had whiskers and, therefore, fur. Thrinaxodon may have been warm-blooded. The fossils of Thrinaxodon are consistent with the hypothesis that mammals evolved from the pre-historic reptiles.
