Answer & explanation:
Mountains are large formations of land at high altitudes, where conditions are often difficult. For example, cold weather and food shortages.
In the highest areas of the mountains, animals such as vultures, eagles, hawks and other birds of prey usually prevail.
In addition, it is common for the sides of the mountains to be covered with forests. In these areas it is possible to observe the predominance of animals such as moose, goats, sheep, skunks, llamas and lynx. This group has good climbing skills and manages to stay in the side of the mountains and in some high areas (not as high as the previous group).
Meanwhile, in the lower parts of the mountains, where the forest is denser, it is possible to observe the predominance of snakes, wolves, marmots, foxes, etc.
Answer:
Explanation:
A fall in temperature can also adversely affect cell and cell membranes. At low temperatures, the phospholipids' fatty acid tails are moving less and stiffer. This reduces the membrane's overall fluidity as well as reduces its permeability and perhaps limits the entry into the cells of vital chemicals like oxygen and glucose. Also, low temperatures can impede cell development by preventing cell size expansion.
In severe cases, such long term exposure to sub-freezing temperatures, fluid in the cell can start solidifying and can form crystals that breach the membrane and destroy the cell.
"The idea has not yet achieved scientific consensus" is the one statement among the following choices given in the question that <span>best describes gene therapy. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or option "A". I hope the answer has helped you.</span>
<span>When a gene changes within a population over time, it is referred to as evolution. This refers to a long but steady rate of mutations that occur in genes of organisms within the environment. A lot of factors affect a population's evolution (e.g. climate, reproduction, food source) and it is a determinant whether a species will survive for the next generations. </span>
