(2) Tubes of bicycles are filled by the pumps that compress the air.

(3) Carbonated soda filled with the help of compressing the carbon dioxide into the bottle.

Mandarinka [93]
Natural selection is when certain environmental qualities cause a species to evolve in order to survive in the environment. Natural selection is a specific part of that, when some of the variations of the species die off because they can't survive, then the ones who survive live to create more living babies with the qualities that allow them to survive in the environment.

Global bee populations have been declining over the past decade. What impact might this have on the world's human population?
aev [14]

Answer:

Bees play a significant role in the field of agriculture. They can adapt to the process of pollination. Pollination is usually defined as the process of transportation of pollen grains from the male anther of a flower to the female stigma. The bees pollinate the crops and increases their productivity and yield capacity. About 35% of the food that we eat, are dependent on this pollination act that is carried out by the bees, involving either directly or indirectly.

Over the last few decades, the population of the bee has been decreasing, and it is directly affecting the global human population. It is because less amount of food is produced compared to the rate of demand, resulting in a shortage of food items.

Explanation:

A phospholipid is made up of two ends a hydrophilic or water-loving end that is phosphate head and a hydrophobic tail that is made up of fatty acid tail. The arrangement of phospholipid in a bilayer structure allows the entry of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and lipids to pass through them via concentration gradient via simple diffusion.
