C. <span>more producers than consumers 

</span><span>Because for example one large eagle needs lots of small sparrows to eat. There is usually a food pyramid so for example you could display it along the lines of 1,000 worms are eaten by 20 sparrows which are eaten by 1 eagle. Its just the way things are. It is a fine balance. if you went up to two eagles on same land they would run out of food quickly and then would either starve or have to move on and using up all the food doesnt help them so it needs to be in a fine balance. A balanced ecosystem.</span>

prohojiy [21]

Answer: Option (1)

Explanation:

The extinction event played an important role in the creation of new diverse life forms on earth. After an extinction event, both globally and locally, more than 75% of animal species gets vanish and the only those highly resistant life supporting organisms survive and with due course of time, they undergoes evolution, thereby bringing changes to the existing life forms. This is how they initiates and helps in the increasing species diversity.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).

A community lives in the desert near an area with high winds. There is very little rainfall or clouds, and no large rivers nearb
amid [387]

Solar power would, without doubt, be the most efficient type of power plant to build in this specific location. This is due to the fact that solar power produces no pollution in an environment. Also this type of alternative energy fits this communities resources due to the fact that the community receives primarily sun , a huge component in solar power, and little cloud coverage only increases the sun's power that much more. On the other hand, biomass needs things like wood, crops and alcohol fuels to burn in order to produce energy, some of which are not viable in this type of community because a place with little to no irrigation sources and an abundant amount of sunlight would be hard to produce any kind of natural aspect. Lastly, hydroelectric energy would not be a efficient of even viable choice because this community has no natural water available at hand to use for this alternative energy to function, and hydroelectric works primarily on a water storage.

The scientists mapping the SNPs in the human genome noticed that groups of SNPs tended to be inherited together, in blocks known
Over [174]

Answer:

SNPs have shown that only 0.1 % of DNA sequences are different in the human genome between different individuals, thereby all the inherited phenotypic variation observed in our species is associated with only 0.1 % of differences at the genome level  

Explanation:

Haplotypes are block-like sequences of DNA that are inherited together due to low recombination rates. Moreover, single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mapping is a very useful methodology used to map the site of SNP mutations (i.e., SNP variants). In this regard, it has been observed that there are approximately 10 million common SNPs in the human genome. These SNPs contribute to the wide range of phenotypic variation observed in human populations for different traits (e.g., eye color, hair, weight, height, etc). Moreover, researchers have determined that SNPs can be clustered into haplotypes, thereby haplotypes can be accurately sampled by as few as approx. 300,000 selected SNPs, which are sufficient to represent all of the genetic variation across different human genomes.
