A population of rabbits in an ecosystem has genetic variation in fur thickness. Some rabbits have thick fur and others have thin

fur. Due to changes in the environment, the average temperature of the ecosystem is steadily increasing.
How will this environmental change likely affect the rabbit population over time?
A. Rabbits with thick fur will become more common in the population because thick fur will be a favorable trait in this changing environment.
B. Rabbits with thin fur will become more common in the population because these rabbits are more likely to survive and successfully reproduce.
C. Rabbits with thick fur and thin fur will become equally distributed because all rabbits in the population will successfully reproduce.
D. Rabbits with both fur types will increase in the population because the temperature change will cause the population of rabbits to expand.

Why do plant need food
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

They need food in order to gain the initial energy they need.

Explanation:

Plants unlike humans don't get food by primary sources (aka, hunting). instead they retrieve their food from the suns rays. Without the suns rays they are able to convert this energy into glucose for themselves, and will essentially die because they do not have that source of food to give them the energy they need to survive.

In what zone is the ability to burrow and sustain changes in temperature and salinity important for an organisms' survival?
den301095 [7]
The correct option is C.
Living organisms that live in the littoral zones in the ocean are used to frequent changes in temperature and in the salinity of the ocean water. For an organism to survive in this environment, it needs to have adaptive features that will increase its survival. The littoral zone is divided into three zones, which are high, middle and lower littoral zones. Organisms living in high littoral zone have adaptive features that make them more adapted to desiccation due to the long hours of sunlight to which they are exposed. The organisms are usually exposed directly to the air or they can be enclosed in burrows.

When an underwater earthquake has just been recorded in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, the seismologists will be called to determine if the effects of this earthquake and whether or not it will cause tsunamis off the coast of Hawaii.

Seismology is the study of earthquakes, the escalation of waves and the effects they might have. A seismologist is a scientist who is concerned with these studies. They make use of seismographs and other relevant tools to gather essential data which helps in reading the planetary movements and understanding them better. The study does not always predict an earthquake but it helps in predicting the possibility of tsunamis. Seismology enabled the development of tsunami warning systems.
