Answer:

The correct answer is option A.) "joints; cooling and contracting during formation".

Explanation:

In Geology, a joint is a break or fracture that is naturally formed within a rock. Joints are formed as a result of cooling and contracting during its formation, or by the addition of layers of minerals during its formation.The rocks will break along their joints when they are hit with hammers because joints are their weak spots.

LESSON 4.2 Review
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Energy is said to flow in a "one-way stream" through an ecosystem. In your own words, describe what that means. Energy is not recycled. Energy enters an ecosystem and flows through a food chain, but it is not reused, it is lost as heat.

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Based on this, you know that Sampson is using the whistle as a <u><em>secondary </em></u> reinforcer to train the dolphins.

Explanation:

Secondary Reinforcement can be described as a condition in which  a stimulus initiates a behavior after being previously associated with a primary reinforcer. A secondary reinforcement is a stimulus that satisfies basic survival instinct such as food, drinks, and clothing.

The same phenomenon was being used by Samson to train his dolphins to perform tasks. The dolphins enjoyed the sound of the whistle because previously that sound was paired to them getting their food.

DDT is an insecticide that was used extensively in the mid-1900s to kill mosquitoes. It was very effective at first, but after a
dlinn [17]

Insect populations can develop resistance to insecticides over time. The evolution of resistance is associated with an increase in the frequency of adaptive genes in the population.

  • In the case above described it is expected that a few mosquitoes in the population were resistant to DDT before it was ever used (Option a is correct).

  • Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) is a pesticide used in agriculture.

  • After exposure to DDT, those individuals in the mosquito population that didn't carry gene variants (i.e., alleles) associated with the resistance to this pesticide died.

  • Subsequently, insects having adaptive alleles associated with DDT resistance survived and reproduced, thereby increasing the frequency of adaptive genes/alleles in the population.
