Answer:

Evolution by natural selection

Explanation:

Most probably, the trait of being small, weak and slower did not convey advantage (or was even a disadvantage) in survival in their environment. The bigger, stronger and faster horses had an advantage and were able to survive long enough to pass down their genes to the next generation, Over succeeding generations more and more horses, therefore, became strong, bigger and faster. This is the process of natural selection at work.

taurus [48]

Answer:

Cyclones are actually water born storms in the equatorial regions.

Mainly, water near this equator get heated up as it receives direct sunlight, the hot air rises up and to fill this empty space cold air from poles rush to these equatorial regions. And hence the cyclones are mostly formed in Equatorial regions.

Suppose a geneticist isolates two bacteriophage mutants. One mutation causes clear plaques (c), and the other produces minute pl
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The mentioned parental types are c+m- and c-m+. Thus, the recombinants will be c+m+ and c-m-.  

Now, the given distance between c and m is 8 map units. Thus, the recombinant frequency is 8% or 0.08.  

The total recombinants from 1000 plaques will come out to be 80,  

Thus, the recombinants of each type will be 40.  

Total parental type will be 920, and therefore, each parental type count will be 460.  

Thus, expected c+m- = 460, expected c-m+ = 460, expected c+m+ = 40 and expected c-m- = 40.

Answer:

Sulfur; nitrogen.

Explanation:

Acid precipitation results when sulfur and nitrogen compounds react with water in the atmosphere.

This acid precipitation is also known as acid rain and it is typically caused by the chemical reaction between sulfur oxide and nitrogen oxide which are released into the air as a result of burning fossil fuels, with water and other chemical elements present in the atmosphere.

Generally, acid precipitation (acid rain) usually have a pH of about 5.1 or below and as such, it is very acidic nature i.e possessing a large amount of hydrogen ions.

Hence, acid precipitation (acid rain) when washed to the earth has negative or harmful effects on various living and non-living organisms such as animals, plants, cars, buildings etc.
