Answer:

a). 2

b). Moderate

c). 73-112 mph

d). F1

Explanation:

A Fujita scale is a scale that is used to determine the rating for the tornado intensities. It is used to measure the intensity of the tornado and provides a rating based on the damages made by the tornado on the human built structures and other vegetations.

The rating is based on the wind sped and the damages caused by the winds. When the damages caused by a tornado is surveyed, it is compared to the lists of Damage Indicators and the Degree of Damage which helps to estimate the range of the speeds of the tornado and an EF scale rating is provided accordingly.

In the context, It is given that the lightweight roof of a three storied building was uplifted. It was a non residential low rise three story building whose roof was uplifted completely but there was no damages made to the walls of the building.

So according to the EF scale, it provided a rating of :

Damage Indicator Number : 2

Degree of Damage : Moderate

Expected Wind Speed : 73-112 miles per hour

EF-scale Rating :  F1

Basin and Range Province, a dry geographic state that occupies most of the western and southwestern United States. The region includes much of Nevada, the western half of Utah, southeastern California, and southern Arizona, and extends to northwestern Mexico.

How is a subspecies different from a species?
grandymaker [24]

<h2>short definition:</h2>

<u><em> a species is a population or groups of populations that can potentially interbreed freely within and among themselves.</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

<em><u> Subspecies, are subgroups within a species that have different traits </u></em>

<h2>long definition</h2>

<em><u>A species is a group of organisms that (in the case of sexually reproducing organisms) can freely interbreed, producing fertile offspring. This definition has its problems, but overall, it encompasses the meaning of the word “species” in biology.</u></em>

<em><u></u></em>

<em><u>A subspecies is, as the name implies, a smaller population within a species that share a particular common trait. Usually a sub species is at least partially genetically isolated from it’s parent species, so that interbreeding is less likely to occur. Most often a sub species is physically separated from the rest of the species, and may have some specific physical differences from the rest of the species. However, they are still able to interbreed with members of the parent population.</u></em>
