What kind of map is a rectangular representation of earth but she was accurate directions but distorts the sizes and distances

Biology
1 answer:
Anna [14]3 years ago

The correct answer is - Mercator projection map.

The Mercator projection map is a cylindrical type of map that represents the Earth in rectangular manner. While the map may seem as a nice representation of the Earth, and it has accurate directions, it also has some flaws. The biggest flaw of this map is the distortion of the sizes. The distortion is non existent on the Equator, but as it moves north and south of it towards the poles, the distortion is constantly increasing. This projection is not made to be able to cope with the increase of the scale, especially when it it is infinite at the poles.

Because of this, on this map, Greenland looks very similar in size with Africa, even though in reality it is around 15 times smaller.

Mumz [18]

Over long periods of time, living things have gradually altered as the conditions around them change. A species' strongest traits are passed from one generation to the next. This is what evolution is, the process of gradual change.

erica [24]
<span>The answer is C.glycolysis ® Krebs cycle ® electron transport chain. There are 3 stages of cellular respiration: 1. glycolysis when glucose is broken down to pyruvate in the cytoplasm; 2. Krebs cycle when Acetyl CoA and oxaloacetate form a 6 C-atoms compound; 3. Electron transport chain when hydrogen molecules removed through previous stages are pumped to the chain and energy is produced.</span>

Si se aparean especies diferentes como por ejemplo el cruce entre caballos y burros; podemos afirmar que si llegan a tener desce
White raven [17]

Answer:

El híbrido va a ser esteril.

Explanation:

En la cruza entre dos especies distintas, cuando ocurre, existen distintos mecanismos de aislamiento reproductivo, que son barreras que inhiben o interrumpen el flujo génico entre especies distintas. Es decir que no habrá exito reproductivo de estas cruzas. Se trata de caracteres biológicos propios de cada especie que previenen la reproducción con otras especies.

Estos mecanismos de aislamiento reproductivo pueden ser precigóticos o postcigóticos.  

  1.Pre-copulatorios o pre-cigóticos:

  • Ecológico o por aislamiento de hábitat;
  • Estacional o temporal;
  • Sexual o etológico;
  • Mecánico;
  • Por incompatibilidad de gametas.  

  2. Post-copulatorios o cigóticos:

  • Inviabilidad del híbrido;
  • Esterilidad del híbrido;
  • Híbrido con viabilidad o fertilidad disminuido;
  • Interacciones citoplasmáticas.

La mula es producto de la cruza entre dos especies distintas: una yegua (Equus ferus caballus) y un burro (Equus africanus asinus). Es un ejemplo de la accion de mecanismo poscigótico, en el cual se forma un híbrido viable esteril. Este ejemplar puede nacer, crecer y sobrevivir, pero que no puede producir gametas funcionales, por lo cual no puede reproducirse.

Describe Newton’s second law of motion. In your response, discuss how an object’s mass or the force that is exerted on the objec
Ann [662]

Answer:

Newton’s second law of motion is more quantitative and is used extensively to calculate what happens in situations involving a force. The greater the force that is applied to an object of a given mass, the more the object will accelerate.

Explanation:

For example, doubling the force on the object doubles its acceleration.

Example 1: Pushing a bicycle or a Cadillac, or stopping them once moving. The more massive the object (more inertia) the harder it is to start or stop.
