Sonja [21]3 years ago
8 0

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.

maw [93]

Answer:

Fomepizole with ethanol

Explanation:

The antidote for ethylene glycol poisioning is the administration of fomepizole with ethanol.

Ethylene glycol (antifreeze) is a poisonous, colorless and sweet tasting liquid which is usually used for antifreeze formulations. Drinking or liking of ethylene glycol deliberately or unintentionally can result in ethylene glycol poisoning. The poisoning can be treated by stabilizing the affected animal, followed by the administration of the antidote; fomepizole with ethanol. This is the most preferred antidote. Hemodialysis, sodium bicarbonate and magnesium may also be used to treat the affected animal.

1. Define diffusion.
anygoal [31]

Answer:

1) Diffusion is net movement of anything (e.g., atom, ions, molecules) from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.

2) Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a selectively permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides

3) One big difference between osmosis and diffusion is that both solvent and solute particles are free to move in diffusion, but in osmosis, only the solvent molecules (water molecules) cross the membrane.

4)  Molecules tend to move from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration.

I'm sorry, but I don't know how to do part #2. I think it's a lab.
