Answer:

Adaptation.

Explanation:

Adaptation occurs when the acid tolerance of several plant species has increased significantly in the polluted area. The main reason for this tolerance is the change in the genetic makeup or mutation occurs in the cell due to the exposure of DNA to the chemicals of the environment that cause pollution. The plant adopt the environment by producing certain chemicals that cancel the effects of pollutants and as a result, the plant survive.

Products of glycolysis include:
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer: c. 2 pyruvate molecules

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the first step it the cell respiration cycle. It turns one molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate by a series of reactions catalyzed by different enzymes.

It starts by using 2 ATP to turn glucose into fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, which then divides in two and releases 4 ATP when it turns into two pyruvate molecules.

Thus glycolysis consumes 2 ATP and releases 4 ATP (giving a net gain of 2 ATP) and 2 pyruvate molecules.

Ape species began to dwindle during the Miocene, leaving only a few remaining: a situation that exists up to the present. It is
fiasKO [112]

The change in weather pattern caused forest to become sparse and hot weather caused the reduction of apes as they had less food and difficulty in surviving the climate.

Explanation:

In Miocene epoch volcanic mountain chains were created in Central Africa which abruptly changed the local weather.

The sea-level got drop due to global cooling of that time.

This resulted in continental drift making land connection of Africa with Eurasia.

The primates started migrating through this route.

The African forest become dry causing selective pressures in primates.

The cooler climate in Eurasia caused extinction and migration of primates to Africa in late Miocene epoch.

The hot and humid climate and less woodland caused a reduction in number of apes which were replaced by modern world monkeys.
