Animals ( or plants ) store solar energy as chemical energy between atoms of their molecules.

For example : ATP is phosphate energy bonds stored by animals in their molecules.

For more stable form animals also store energy in carbon bonds called carbohydrates. The most common e carbohydrates are starch, sugar and fats. Animals have enzymes to convert these forms of energy into actual form which they use for their activities like move, run or fly.

The shells of a certain species of marine snail are highly variable, with some snail shells being solid colors and others being

raketka [301]

Clearly, there is a variation in these marine snails so 'No variation' is definitely not an answer. Artificial variation is when humans interfere with their genetic engineering that modifies the DNA of the organism. Assuming that this is natural, then this is not the answer.

Environmental and genetic variation can be easily confused with. Genetic variation is more on the genotype, the composition of the genes that form the physical traits. While environmental variation is more on the phenotype, or the trait that you see and observe. However, there can be genes that are inherited, but due to the influence in environment, they don't show up. So, assuming that these colors are consistent from birth, then the answer would be genetic variation.

Excessive use of fertilizers has little impact on aquatic life.Explain.

mafiozo [28]

Fertilizer contains different types of phosphates and nitrates. When they are used to fertilize large fields, it can be beneficial in the matter of food production. But when it rains those nitrates, phosphates, etc can run off into a river,lake,stream and cause eutrophication .

Eutrophication causes an abundance of plant growth such as algae blooms. Algae blooms can suffocate fish and can have an impact on human health.

"How are the peppered moths of 19th century England, during the Industrial Revolution, proof of evolution?"

What is one difference (other than distance from the sun) between terrestrial planets and Jovian planets? Group of answer choice

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Jovian planets are mostly gas and liquid, terrestrial planets are solid and rocky.

Explanation:

Jovian planets also are known as gas planets due to the fact that they are made of gases. These planets are thick or dense with a large size in comparison to the terrestrial planets. These planets have more moon and termed as outer planets.

Terrestrial planets are made of the rocky surface that is denser than gas planets. These planets are known as inner planets. These planets are comparatively smaller and have less or no moons.
