In physical geography<span>, a </span>dune<span> is a </span>hill<span> of loose </span>sand<span> built by </span>wind<span> or the flow of water.</span><span> Dunes occur in different shapes and sizes, formed by interaction with the flow of air or water. Most kinds of dunes are longer on the windward side where the sand is pushed up the dune and have a shorter "slip face" in the lee of the wind. The valley or trough between dunes is called a </span>slack<span>. A "dune field" is an area covered by extensive sand dunes. Dunes occur, for example, in some </span>deserts<span> and along some coasts.</span>
Answer:
D.Georgia to Alabama
Explanation:
There are records of manatee sighting during the summer months in areas such as Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina. They migrate north in the summer months.
The manatees do not withstand temperatures below 21 degrees Celsius.
Most manatees migrate seasonally over long distances between a northern warm season range.
In winter the manatees are concentrated in Florida.
Answer:
Humans have destroyed and modified various locations, such as forests, jungles, oceans. They begin to modify an environment in order to build new infrastructures, like buildings, factories, or even communities.
Explanation:
The reason for this is because they want to get as much resources for economic purposes, like for example mines, touristic places, factories. At first, this interaction affects the environment more, because of the loss of species or resources due to the human activity. Then, after this, it will affect the human, because of the lack of resources and global contamination caused by the environment being destroyed or modified.
Answer:
The options
a. sympatric speciation; vicariance
b. allopatric speciation; vicariance
c. sympatric speciation; dispersal
d. allopatric speciation; dispersal
The CORRECT ANSWER IS d.
d. allopatric speciation; dispersal
Explanation:
Allopatric speciation takes place either via dispersal, when some members of a species shifts it's habitat to a separate geographical area which leads to differentiation of the initial group into separate diverse varieties or species(as in our case study).
Allopatric speciation through dispersal could results in multiple speciation leading to an individual original species producing diverse new species; this occurrence is called adaptive radiation.
In some scenario, a population of an individual species disperses all over a region with each locating a separate niche or isolated habitat. In the course of time, the diverse demands of their just formed lifestyles causes multiple speciation events that comes from a singular species.
