Answer:
D. All birds are capable of flight
Explanation:
All birds are capable of flight is a false statement.
An example of a bird that cannot fly is an Ostrich.

Hello!
An initial observation is the first thing a scientist notices about a topic before conducting the experiment. We can see that it is the first thing in the paragraph in this case, that dandelions grow as unwanted weeds in many lawns.
The hypothesis is the guess about the result of an experiment made before the experiment is conducted. In this case, it is that a weed killer (Killimal) would kill all the dandelions while leaving the grass healthy. This is not specifically a guess made by the scientist, but more like a prediction he wanted to verify.
An independent variable is the variable being changed in the experiment by the scientist. Here, it is whether Killimal was sprayed or not.
The dependent variable is the variable being measured, and the one being affected by the independent variable. His observation would be whether the grass and dandelions would be killed. This is because the weed killer would be directly affecting whether or not these would be killed.
The control variables are ones which are kept the same in the experiment as to not interfere with the final results. In this case, it would be the density of dandelions, the amount of sunlight, and the amount the plants were watered. These were kept exactly the same, as they could've affected the dependent variable if changed.
The control group was the one that is not impacted by the independent variable. The control group makes sure that it actually is the independent variable affecting the dependent, and it isn't some outside unknown variable. This would be the plot without the Killimal.
The experimental group is the one being experimented on from the independent variable. This would be the plot with the Killimal.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The reasons are explained below -
Explanation:
The large finches living on the Galapagos islands are different from the original source population from a nearby islands because of the following reasons -
- A natural selection favored only the large finches because they are more fit to the current environmental conditions.
- A genetic drift has been occurred in the two populations living on the nearby islands.
- Due to the separation of habitat on both the islands, the gene flow between the two islands is reduced.
All the above listed reasons are responsible for the difference in the finches found on the two islands.
The correct options are as follows:
1. USE, B.
Land use refers to the function of a particular land, that is, what the land is been used for. For instance land can be used for agriculture, construction of roads, residential apartments, hotels, zoos, etc. Land use differs in the urban and rural settings. In the rural settings, land is usually used for farming and forestry while in the urban setting, land is usually used for construction purposes.
2. LUC, OPTION B.
The modification of the earth's surface due to land use is called LAND USE CHANGE, LUC. A lot of changes occur when man use lands for different purposes. For instance, examples of land use change include: reduction in forest biomass, conversion of forest and grassland to pasture, etc,
