List three ways the ocean's energy can be harnessed

Biology
1 answer:
Feliz [49]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Tidal power can be harnesed and be used to drive turbines which are used in hydroelectric power stations. Tide involves the movement of water from one place to another and this results in ocean currents. The tides carry a huge amount of renewable energy in them.

Wave power: waves accompany tides. These waves can be easily harnessed to drive wind turbines which in turn produces electricity. They can also be used in wind mills.

Power from fossil fuels: Oceans contain a vast reserve of fossil fuels. Most oceans in times past are sedimentary basins that accumulates remain of organisms. As natural processes plays out, they yield fossil fuels. These fossil fuels can be tapped for use in different machines and gas power plants.

Because of the rapid rate of reproduction, the chances of survival for a species that produces ________ is greater.
Dima020 [189]

Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is Asexually.

Asexually reproducing organisms have rapid rate of reproduction as only a single parent is involved in this. Also, there is no formation and fusion of gametes in this mode of reproduction.

They produce larger number of offsprings through rapid rate of reproduction. By doing so they have larger chances of survival.  

For instance, if a part of bacterial species population is wiped out through viral infection, bacteria can compensate this loss by the rapid rate of reproduction. This increases their chances of survival.

Define the following terms with examples:
Mashcka [7]

1) Chordata=A chordate is an animal of the phylum Chordata. All chordates possess 5 synapomorphies, or primary characteristics, at some point during their larval or adulthood stages that distinguish them from all other taxa

2) Vertebrates=vertebrate, also called Craniata, any animal of the subphylum Vertebrata, the predominant subphylum of the phylum Chordata. The vertebrates are also characterized by a muscular system consisting primarily of bilaterally paired masses and a central nervous system partly enclosed within the backbone.

3)Invertebrates=Invertebrates are animals that neither possess nor develop a vertebral column, derived from the notochord. This includes all animals apart from the chordate subphylum Vertebrata. Familiar examples of invertebrates include arthropods, mollusks, annelid, and cnidarians.

4) Poikilothermic animals=A poikilotherm is an animal whose internal temperature varies considerably. Poikilotherms have to survive and adapt to environmental stress.

5) Homeothermic animals=The term homeothermic refers to the warm-blooded animals which have constant and relatively higher temperature. They are animals which can maintain their internal body temperature. Complete answer: Homeothermic animals are warm-blooded and maintain a constant body temperature, for example birds and mammals.

6) Oviparous= producing young by means of eggs which are hatched after they have been laid by the parent, as in birds.

7)Vivaparous=bringing forth live young which have developed inside the body of the parent

If you comment a shorten url link, you will be reported.
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The offspring plant must have genotype Rr for flower color (pink flowers) and Ww for seed shape (wrinkled). In fact we know more: we know the R and W came from one parent, so are on the same chromosome, and also the r and w on the other chromosome, from the other parent. We write this RW/rw.

Explanation:

When the genotype of a carnation is heterozygous for the trait (Rr), the result is a pink color that comes from the incomplete dominance of the alleles. In codominance there are two or more dominant alleles.
