Answer: Osteoarthritis

Explanation: Osteoarthritis is a condition that normally occurs due to the wear and tear of the joints, and it mostly affects the elderly. It commonly affects weight-bearing joints such as the spine, hips, and knees. The disease causes the smooth lining of a joint—the articular cartilage—to crack and flake. As the cartilage deteriorates, the underlying bone becomes thickened and distorted. Because movement becomes painful, the muscles begin to decline from lack of use.

The symptoms of osteoarthritis are episodes of pain, swelling, and stiffness in the joint area, which sometimes results in knobby-looking joints.

Tin, because it has five energy levels with four electrons in the fifth level .

Explanation:

Tin has an electronic configuration as

1s2,2s2,2p6,3s2,...........4d10, 5s2,5p2

They have four valence electrons in their outer shell

Among the four diagrams given Tin is least reactive because the atomic radius of tin is largest among all four options. Due to large atomic radius electronegativity decreases and hence Tin is the least reactive element among Neon, Chlorine, gallium and tin.

The electronegativity of an element is its tendency to complete its octet by attracting electrons towards itself. Also tin is at the lowest place in the periodic table among all the four mentioned elements, its ionization energy is also low hence less electronegative and least reactive.

Explain how geographic isolation can cause adaptations.
Temka [501]

Answer:

Change in an organism's environment forces the organism to adapt to fit the new environment, eventually causing it to evolve into a new species. ... Organisms become isolated as a result of environmental change. The cause of isolation can be gradual, like when mountains or deserts form, or continents split apart.

Commensalism is the relationship between two organisms where one benefits from the other and the other is not affected in anyway. The interaction between the remora and the shark demonstrates this relationship.
