Sea turtles nest only at their own birthplaces. After hatching on the beach, the turtles enter the water to begin their far-rang

ing migration, only returning to their birthplace to nest some 15 to 30 years later. It has been hypothesized that newborn sea turtles learn the smell of their environment, and it is this smell that stimulates the turtles to return to nest.
Which one of the following would be most important to know in evaluating the hypothesis in the passages?

(A) how long the expected life span of sea turtles
(B) what the maximum migration range of the sea turtles is
(C) whether many beaches on which sea turtles were hatched have since been destroyed by development
(D) before returning to the nest, sea turtles are outside the area where the smell of their birthplace would be perceptible
(E) whether both sex of sea turtles are actively involved in the nesting process

Environmental factors can influence natural selection because they can increase or decrease
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Environmental factors can influence natural selection because they can increase or decrease the amount of genetic variation in a population.

Explanation:

Natural selection is a process that involves the survival of species through changes in the expression of their genes, making possible the process of adaptation to environmental changes. It is one of the explanations for the biological evolution of species.

The second premise, necessary for natural selection to be possible, implies the existence of a variability (genetics) of traits among individuals in a population.

The other premises of natural selection are the faculty of traits to be inheritable and that genetic variability should lead to reproductive success and survival.

  • <em>The other options are not related to the process of natural selection, since it is not possible for natural selection to increase or decrease the number of chromosomes, in addition to the fact that genetic variability must be observed in a population, not in a single individual, to be considered natural selection </em>

When a plant grows toward or away from a stimulus, it’s called a tropism.
harina [27]

Explanation:

Phototropism- a response to <u>light stimulus</u> that directs the stem to grow toward the light and roots to grow away from it.

ii. Gravitropism- Stems and leaves grow away from the force of <u>gravity</u> while roots grow toward it.

iii.Thigmotropism - growth in response to <u>touch stimulus.</u> The side of the stem in contact with the object grows slower than the side not in contact. This causes the vine to twist around the object.

What living system is being directly<br> affected by the dirty water that this<br> ship is dumping?
Verizon [17]

Answer:

If garbage is dumped into the ocean, the oxygen in the water could be depleted. This results in poor health for marine life due to lack of oxygen. Animals such as seals, dolphins, penguins, sharks, whales, and herring could all die. Bottles and other plastics including bags can suffocate or choke sea creatures.
