<span>Cells of most organisms freeze due to the fact that. Water is less dense as a solid than as a liquid. To elaborate when you quickly freeze and organism the internal portion of that organism is freezing at a much slower rate. SO the outside portion becomes rigid eventually breaking is you freeze it at a slower rate less cells will be damaged.</span>
The answer is lithosphere.
A. Most people thought that trillium was not getting enough sunlight in the forest.
Explanation – Scientists used to believe that the population of trillium decreased because there were not enough sunlight to reach these plants. Later, it was found that deer used to eat the flowers of trillium plant that led to the decrease of its population.
The seed of the trillium plant is very nutritious and hence consumed by the deer. Because of this, trilliums were found to be unlikely to recolonize local areas on their own.
The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:
A. The threefold change happened in one concentrated burst.
B. The change was not consistent in direction, but happened in multiple bursts concentrated at each speciation event.
C. There was consistent directional selection toward a larger brain all along the lineage between the two species.
D. None of the above.
Answer:
Option-B
Explanation:
The hominids evolved with time and the known hominid in modern time is the Homo sapiens or modern human.
The Homo sapiens like other species could have evolved from the older species through speciation and studies suggest that one of the major factors of human evolution is the size of the brain.
Two possibilities could explain the size of the brain that it could have evolved slowly with time called the gradual equilibrium or in bursts concentrated at each speciation event.
Since the punctuated equilibrium takes place in bursts until the species reach stasis is the most applicable condition for punctuated equilibrium to happen therefore Option-B is the correct answer.
