Light is the answer
atroni [7]2 years ago

Answer:

d

Explanation:

a.But, like solids and liquids, air is matter. It has weight (more than we might imagine), it takes up space, and it is composed of particles too small and too spread apart to see. Air, a mixture of gases, shares properties with water vapor, the gaseous form of water that is part of air.

b.Elements can be classified based on their physical states (States of Matter) e.g. gas, solid or liquid. This element is a solid. Gold is classified as a "Transition Metal" which are located in Groups 3 - 12 of the Periodic Table. ... For additional facts and information refer to Gold Properties.

c.Your house, the food you eat, and even your dog are matter. Matter is usually found in three forms, or states. The three states of matter are gas, liquid, and solid. All matter is made of tiny parts called atoms.

d.Light is a form of energy, not matter. Matter is made up of atoms. Light is actually electromagnetic radiation. Moving electric charge or moving electrons (electric current) cause a magnetic field, and a changing magnetic field creates an electric current or electric field.

Does geographic distance between salamander populations increase their reproductive isolation? To answer this question, research
Nataly_w [17]

Question: Does geographic distance between salamander populations increase their reproductive isolation?  To answer this question, researchers studied populations of the dusky salamander (Desmognathus ochrophaeus) living on different mountain ranges in the southern Appalachian Mountains.  The researchers tested the reproductive isolation of pairs of salamander populations by leaving one male and one female together and later checking the females for the presence of sperm. Four mating combinations were tested for each pair of populations (A and B)—two within the same population (female A with male A and female B with male B) and two between populations (female A with male B and female B with male A).  The proportion of successful matings for each mating combination was measured. For example, when all the matings of a particular combination were successful, the researchers gave it a value of 1; when none of the matings were successful, they gave it a value of 0. Then the researchers calculated an index of reproductive isolation that ranged from 0 (no isolation) to 2 (full isolation). The reproductive isolation value for two populations is the sum of the proportion of successful matings of each type within populations (AA + BB) minus the sum of the proportion of successful matings of each type between populations (AB + BA).

The table (Figure 1) provides data for the geographic distances and reproductive isolation values for 27 pairs of dusky salamander populations.

Part A - Understanding experimental design

What hypothesis did the researchers test in this study?

Answer:

"Reproductive isolation increases with geographic distance between dusky salamander populations"

Explanation:

The mechanisms of reproductive isolation are a assemblage of evolutionary mechanisms, behaviors and physiological procedures dangerous for speciation. They avert followers of dissimilar types from manufacturing offspring, or confirm that any offspring are germ-free. While in allopatric speciation the reproductive isolation is resolute superficially by the spatial isolation of populations, during sympatric speciation specific groups of persons create distinct mating organizations with self-like persons while distribution the similar home with the rest of the unique inhabitants.

Which is not one of the four atoms that make up the bulk of living organisms?
prohojiy [21]

calcium  is not one of the four atoms that make up the bulk of living organisms.

The correct option is C.

<h3>What is  living organisms?</h3>

The cells that make up a living thing. Because more cells are produced, the body of the organisms grows as a result of cell division. A live thing that displays the growth process is a tree. Water, pens, and roads are inanimate objects that do not exhibit the growth process.

<h3>What is calcium?</h3>

Although it also plays a critical role in blood clotting, assisting in muscular contraction, controlling regular heart rhythms, and maintaining normal neural activities, calcium is a mineral that is most frequently linked to strong bones and teeth.
