Bony Fish (bass etc.) and marine mammals (like dolphins) evolved some similar adaptations for survival in aquatic environments.

However, they evolved separately and are not closely related evolutionarily. What type of evolution does this represent?

Answer:

Convergent evolution

Explanation:

Convergent evolution is a type of evolution of similar features and/or structures between organisms that are not phylogenetically related. This type of evolution is known to create analogous structures/organs that exhibit similar or the same functions but were not present in the last common ancestor of these taxa. An example of analogous structures (and therefore also of convergent evolution) are the wings of bats and of insects (e.g., butterflies). Conversely, divergent evolution is a type of evolution where species phylogenetically related, i.e., species that share a common ancestor, evolve and accumulate differences over time.

Using what you know so far about gravity, describe why the height of the tides change depending on the moon phase.
meriva
During the moon’s quarter phases, the suns pulls against the moon’s gravitational pull instead of with it. during these tides the result is the lowest high tide and the highest low tide. so basically different gravitational pull as well as depends if its a full moon or not and if the sun, earth and moon as semi aligned

Population characteristics and issues​
kow [346]

Answer:

Density, dispersion, growth

Explanation

Population refers to the total number of all members of a species occupying a particular area or habitat at a given time. Populations are not static but change in size, structure and organization. Some of the characteristics of population are:

  • Density which refers to the number of members of a species per unit area or volume.
  • Dispersion refers to the spread and distribution of individuals of a species within a habitat.
  • Growth is the rate of increase or decrease in the number of individuals in a population which is balanced by birth rate and death rate.

The issues that affect population include competition, predation, emigration, diseases and parasites.
