Marine biologists are studying stickleback fish populations. There are two distinct variations in the sticklebacks based on phen

otypes. They are found with the three spines more commonly in marine ecosystems while they are more commonly found without the three spines in freshwater ecosystems. This has been observed in many marine and freshwater ecosystems across the globe. What explains the variation seen in the image here across different aquatic ecosystems?

Answer:

Presence of predators.

Explanation:

Presence and absence of predators is the main cause of the presence of spines on stickleback fish populations because these spines helps in the protection against predators. The stickleback fish populations that lives in marine ecosystem have spines because there are many predators are present while on the other hand, stickleback fish populations of freshwater ecosystems have no spines due to no predator so they acquire the adaptation of having no spines.

Answer:

As the variables are not given, let us help with general explanation on manipulated variable.

Explanation:

A manipulated variable is an independent variable.

The dependent variable is the variable which is under study and being tested.

For example, to check the difference in photosynthesis rate by light, the amount of light will be the independent variable and the rate of photosynthesis will be the dependent variable.

Which of the following statements is true?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

The true statement is: "Spring tides are the highest, while neap tides are the lowest."

Explanation:

  • The range of difference in the level of water between high and low tide is always larger in spring tide.
  • Neap tides are the moderate tides. It does not have huge difference in higher and low tides because the bulging of the ocean ( by the sun)  balances the bulge of the ocean caused by the moon.
  • This balance is not found in spring tides that is the main reason for spring tides to have the highest level for both higher and lower tides.
