Perhaps our first association with the word "Galapagos" is the name "Darwin." Darwin's visit to the Galapagos Islands had a resounding impact on the formation of his Theory of Natural Selection.

A rather unmotivated and failing medical scholar, Charles Darwin accompanied Captain Robert Fitzroy as a travel companion and naturalist on the HMS Beagle. His book the Voyage of the Beagle is an account of his worldwide journey.

When setting off from England in 1831 for a five-year voyage, Darwin had little ambitions for groundbreaking scientific research. After surveying the coasts of South America, the ship stopped over in the Galapagos Islands.

During his visit to the islands, Darwin noted that the unique creatures were similar from island to island, but perfectly adapted to their environments which led him to ponder the origin of the islands' inhabitants.

Among those that struck Darwin so greatly were the finches that are now named in his honor. Darwin would later base some of his thought from the supposing that these finches were all descendents of the same lineage.

Years later in 1859, Darwin finally consolidated all of his observations into his famous book On The Origin of Species, drastically and controversially altering the scientific view on the biological origins of life. Hope this helps! Mark brainly please!

Julie is preparing vegetables for dinner and accidentally cuts her finger. She washes it with soap and water before covering it
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. inflammation

Explanation:

Inflammation is the defense mechanism of the immune system which is non-specific and part of the innate immunity of the body. Inflammation is the reaction against any cell injury.  

Inflammation is categorized by heat, pain, redness(erythema), and swelling(edema). These changes occur because of the result of the increase in local blood vessel diameter which leads to increase of flow of blood that results in heat and redness.  

The transport of fluids and proteins takes place at the injury site which causes swelling and pain. Therefore the right answer is A. inflammation.

Science for environment health peace and equity​
zhenek [66]

Environment:

Science helps the environment because it creates an understanding between human impacts and the environment. By gaining this understanding of how the natural world works, the human race will better know how to protect it. In addition, scientific research is being used to reduce the impact of global warming, adapt to climate change, clean up polluted areas, and protect our own health.  

Health:

Science can be used to improve global health because it fuels discovery, informs the public on  health risks and programs, and helps all people live healthier and better lives. People with physical and mental health can benefit greatly from a variety of health sciences that specialize in their specific ailment. There have also been improvements in the technology used in health such as sanitation, vaccinations, and monitoring systems. By enabling doctors to do minimally invasive surgeries and using more comfortable scanning equipment, patients spend less time recuperating and can spend more time doing what they enjoy.

Peace:

It is my opinion that communication is the main way that science influences peace. Scientists from all over the world collaborate in an unbiased way to focus on one main goal, to deliver scientific breakthroughs to people regardless of religion, race and culture. Furthermore, science contributes to the social and economic development in a society (such as GDP, life expectancy, and literacy), reduction of poverty (through new was to meet basic needs for food, clothing, and shelter), and inspires a newfound peace mindset.

Equity:

Peace is a strong piece of science and, therefore, equity. Science is heavily rooted in the creation of new knowledge, the improvement of education, and the improvement of the quality of human life regardless of bias. Because of this, science can be used to research and find ways to solve pressing issues like racial and economic inequity. Learning of science in schools also has an impact on equity by teaching children the basis of our world and how to understand in order to gain skills that lead to better economic and social outcomes.

What's the purpose of the coccus
lana66690 [7]
The word “coccus” has a couple of different meanings in biology<span>, but it most commonly refers to a type of bacteria that is spherical or slightly oval in shape. In this application, the plural term used to describe entire bacterial chains or infections is </span>cocci<span>, whereas a single coccus </span>bacterium<span> is called a </span>monococcus<span>. There are many different strains and species in this broad family. Some benefit life, either by helping keep cell balance or warding off other infections, while others can be quite harmful. In most cases the shape of the bacteria is useful for classification and evolutionary purposes but doesn’t say much about how it will perform or what it does. The bacteria’s individual coding and composition more commonly dictate these things.</span>
