Fossils can be classified by their morphology (how they look), ethologically (how they acted), and toponomically (where they are in the substrate layers) to produce phylogenetic trees. However, more recent advances in genetic technology allow us to extract DNA from more recent fossils that have not had too much breakdown of the DNA, and we can much more accurately classify species from that information, and also provide much more accurate phylogenetic analysis.

Infer: How might the size of a group affect its defense?
uysha [10]
I don't know exactly what you mean but the size of a group affects its defense because there is a larger group. Therefore, more people would be protecting it, adding more to its defense.

Why would losing just a few dozen aquatic species lead to the end of life in the ocean as we know it?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer: It would unbalance the ecosystem.

Due to the fact that if some species die off, the other species that rely on those species for food or protection would loose that food/ protection which may lead to their extinction and their extinction would lead to another extinction and so on.

Answer - <span>C) Trees and shrubs provide shade, which keeps the water temperature cooler. Lower temperatures allow the water to hold more oxygen, which in turn creates a healthier habitat for the trout.</span>

Reasoning - The back story is if the water temperature is being changed. It will affect the trout indirectly warming the water. In turn if you have shades and shrubs to provide it for cooler areas it will preserve O2 a Certain Habitat for the Species.

When you breathe, the pressure inside the lungs is different than the pressure outside the lungs. this is an example of a(n)?
goblinko [34]

The pressure inside your lungs and the pressure outside them fluctuate as you breathe. An illustration of a pressure gradient is this.

<h3>What is an example of pressure gradient?</h3>
  • The pressure gradient is the amount by which the atmospheric pressure drops in a location at a particular time.
  • A pressure gradient is demonstrated by gale-force winds in one city changing to a moderate breeze after an hour. the rate of the pressure in space decreasing (gradient) at a specific period.
<h3>How does pulmonary ventilation change with pressure gradient?</h3>

Thoracic ventilation Because air moves down a pressure gradient, or from an area of greater pressure to an area of lower pressure, the difference in pressures is what drives pulmonary ventilation.

When breathing in and out, the respiratory airways restrict the flow of air. The air must be transported by the pressure gradient from the mount (or nose) to the pulmonary alveoli.
