<u>Answer</u>: C) They can find the neighborhoods that are in the most danger, where to set up shelters, and which routes will help people reach safety.
<u />
<u>Explanation</u>: GIS is an extremely useful tool in analyzing geographic information. By overlaying topographic data as well as infrastructure, populations, bio-physical datasets (e.g. flood, landslide, storm surge, earthquake data), vulnerable areas as well are relatively safe areas can be detected. Thus, routes to safety as well as shelter construction can be planned.
The strength of an earthquake as well floodwater depth cannot be determined in advance with GIS. The bio.physical datasets that are used come from events that have already occurred and not future events. With GIS the damage caused by a future even can be <em>estimated</em>, but the strength of the natural disaster itself cannot.
Answer:
20 million years
Explanation:
If we have a neutral mutation rate of one mutation per 5 million years, then the total of eight mutation between the two different species would be 20 million years. This is because both species will have 4 mutations in those 20 million years, so combined, both by 4, will have 8 mutations between them. So few mutations on so much time will result in two species that are very similar to each other even after 20 million years of evolution, even making them hardly distinguishable, especially if it comes to defining fossil records from them both. A nice example of this are the members of the felidae (cat) family, which are all very closely related, and are almost identical, thus making it extremely hard to distinguish two species of the same or similar size by their fossils.
Answer:
Deforestation facilitates one part of the carbon cycle, increasing the CO2 in the atmosphere. It also prevents forests from absorbing any further carbon by destroying the trees. It, therefore, inhibits this aspect of the cycle and leads to increased levels of this greenhouse gas in the atmosphere.
