Answer:
24 movable vertebrae:
7 cervical(neck)
12 thoracic(back of chest)
and 5 lumbar(loin)
Answer:
The correct characteristics are -<em><u> tissue, coelom, segmentation, endoskeleton, and backbone</u></em> from top to bottom boxes.
Explanation:
This phylogenetic tree showing the evolution and relatedness of the different organisms on their shared characteristics. In the given phylogenetic tree there are some characters are missing and we can predict or state them on the basis of evolution and studying the characteristics.
After the Porifera phylum tissue-level organization is found in the organism hence Tissue would be placed in the first box.
The coelom is found organisms above the Nematoda level, which further include a character segmentation in Annelida and Arthropoda. Another lineage from arising with the coelom organism that included endoskelton and backbone.
Thus, The correct characteristics are - tissue, coelom, segmentation, endoskeleton, and backbone from top to bottom boxes.
Answer:
B. runoff of nitrates from fertilizers applied to the golf course
Explanation:
Algal bloom is defined as the rapid growth of algae in freshwater or marine water. Algal bloom is green or yellowish in color that cover the top layer of water systems.
Algal bloom in the given case is caused by the excess of nutrients that is nitrates from fertilizers into waters and higher concentrations of nitrates causes uncontrollable growth of algae.
Algal blooms are harmful for environment as they may produce toxins and can block the sunlight from reaching the plants and animals in the water systems.
Hence, the correct answer is "B. runoff of nitrates from fertilizers applied to the golf course".
