The most common type of mechanical weathering that occurs in mid-latitude is called frost action/frost shattering/freeze and thaw weathering. this type of weathering occurs in mountainous areas of mid-latitude regions, where the temperature fluctuates around zero degrees. When water from snowmelt or rainfall freezes in cracks in rocks it expands. The continuous expansion and contraction of rocks as water freezes and thaws will eventually cause rocks to break off into angular fragments.

Some protists can reproduce both sexually and asexually. What's a major advantage of each?
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

(A). Sexual reproduction increases genetic diversity, and asexual reproduction can be more rapid.

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction, which involves formation of new organisms by combination of genetic information from two organisms of different sexes. The major advantage of sexual reproduction is to develop genetic diversity as new organism is produced by mixing up genetic material of both the parents.

On the other hand, asexual reproduction involves formation of new organisms from a single parent having identical genetic makeup as present in parent cell.  One of the major advantage of asexual reproduction is to produce high number of offspring in less time as it is more rapid than sexual reproduction.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

HELP!!! A population of jellyfish has shown a sharp decline. What types of factors should be investigated? (The last answer was
kupik [55]

What types of factors should be investigated?

D. Both abiotic and biotic factors in their ecosystem

Abiotic factors are non-living parts of an environment, while Biotic factors are the living parts of an environment. That being said, you should investigate both when the population of jellyfish show a sharp decline, in order to find out the cause in the decline of jellyfish.

Why is it important for DNA Replication to produce exactly identical DNA daughter strands?
IgorC [24]

DNA is generally tightly packed into a structure called chromatin. It is double stranded and twisted into a structure called a double helix. In order to replicate, DNA must unwind. After unwinding, each side of DNA separates by unzipping down the middle, with the two unzipped strands serving as templates for creating new strands. At the end of replication, the two new segments of DNA each contain one old and one new strand.

Replication occurs at different rates in different types of cells. Some cells continuously divide and must constantly replicate their DNA. Other cells divide at a much slower rate and do not need to replicate their DNA as often. Some cells divide until the organ they make up reaches its normal size, and then they do not divide again.

DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid. Each strand of DNA is made up of a sugar, a phosphate and a nitrogenous base bonded together into a structure called a nucleotide. Many nucleotides bond together to form DNA.
