Answer:

Sturgeon

Explanation:

The key has a series of dichotomies which are decisions that need to be made at different points and thus decide whether to go on one direction or the other until you reach one end of the key or the other. In this case, one end leads to Sturgeon and the other to Catfish. Both fish are similar in that they have a shark-like body. However, the sturgeon is the one that has a combination of the characters: A single dorsal fin, no fin on its back near the tail, and an asymmetrical tail (one lobe is longer than the other).

The majority of the world's energy is produced by burning fossil fuels. Fossil fuel combustion results in the release of carbon
Drupady [299]

The correct answer is option B, that is, the release of large amounts of greenhouse gases can change Earth's climate.

Fossil fuels refer to hydrocarbons, mainly fuel oil, coal, or natural gas, produced from the leftovers of dead animals and plants. The use of fossil fuels has allowed large-scale industrial development and hugely supplanted water-driven mills, as well as the combustion of peat or wood for heat.  

The burning of fossil fuels by humans is the biggest source of emissions of carbon dioxide that is, one of the greenhouse gases, which permits radioactive forcing and donates to global warming. One of the dreadful effects of global warming is the change in the climatic condition of Earth.

sweet [91]

Answer:

By the processes of evaporation and percipitation

Explanation:

When animals breathe, their warm lungs fill with air. Inside the lungs, some of that air condenses into water vapor. When an animal exhales, they release more water vapor than they breathed in, which adds to the water present in the water cycle.

The arctic fox and gray fox evolved from the same species over thousands of years. can you place these steps in the process of a
elena55 [62]
Allopatric speciation, also referred to as geographic speciation, is a method of the formation of new species due to isolation of the species from one another through geographic means.

The first step in this process is geographic isolation, which means that the original population is divided into two groups due to geographical reasons such as movement of continents or formation of water bodies.

Next, the species are subjected to different selection pressures due to their different environments. Eventually, the gene pool becomes very different for the two species due to the different selection pressures and because they are not allowed to mix.

Finally, after enough time passes, speciation occurs, which means that the two populations cannot breed to form fertile offspring.
