Answer:

1. Intraspecific

2. speciation

3. fossil record

4. The fossil record provides empirical evidence for evolution because it shows that species now aren't the same as species that existed in the past and that small changes happen over time to create new species.

5. A geographic variation in the fossil record occurs when two similar organisms occupy the same time span in two different places. These organisms hold the same purpose within the overall ecology.

6. A more detailed fossil record is preferable for supporting evolution because it allows for the instances of gradual change to be recorded and placed into broader speciation events.

7. Fossils provide a great many intermediaries that connect past species with their living descendants.

8. Intraspecific competition is competition that occurs within species. This is the competition that drives natural selection.

How is acetylcholine removed from the postsynaptic membrane?​
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

Acetylcholine (ACh) is an organic chemical that functions in the brain and body of many types of animals (and humans) as a neurotransmitter.

Neurotransmitter is a chemical message released by nerve cells to send signals to other cells, such as neurons, muscle cells and gland cells.

After a neurotransmitter molecule has been recognized by a post-synaptic receptor, it is released back into the synaptic cleft. Once in the synapse, it must be quickly removed or chemically inactivated in order to prevent constant stimulation of the post-synaptic cell and an excessive firing of action potentials.

Some neurotransmitters are removed from the synaptic cleft by special transporter proteins on the pre-synaptic membrane. These transporter proteins carry the neurotransmitter back into the pre-synaptic cell, where it is either re-packaged into a vesicle and stored until it is once again needed to transmit a chemical message, or broken down by enzymes.

natima [27]

Liked my hardwork and make it brainliest

Explanation:

<em>Ocean </em><em>currents </em><em>can </em><em>be </em><em>caused </em><em>by </em><em>wind,</em><em>density </em><em>differences </em><em>in </em><em>water </em><em>masses </em><em>caused </em><em>by </em><em>temperature </em><em>and </em><em>salinity </em><em>variations,</em><em>gravity,</em><em>and </em><em>events </em><em>such </em><em>as </em><em>earthquakes </em><em>an</em><em>d</em><em> </em><em>storms.</em><em>.</em><em>.</em><em>Surface </em><em>currents </em><em>in </em><em>the </em><em>ocean </em><em>are </em><em>driven </em><em>by </em><em>global </em><em>wind </em><em>systems </em><em>that </em><em>are </em><em>fueled </em><em>by </em><em>energy </em><em>from </em><em>the </em><em>sun.</em>

gregori [183]

The answer is; E

This shows that these organelles were once free-living organisms  with their own mechanisms for reproduction which they have retained even after years of symbiotic relationship with the higher organisms. During their duplication, they also replicate their own DNA. Their DNA does not have histones (as opposed to the DNA in the nucleus of their host eukaryotic cell) similar to that of simple organisms such as bacteria.
