Answer: For Piaget's process of accommodation it is when you change schema to accommodate new info.

example: Once you learn about something you modify your understanding of a concept to include specific categories. For example, when a child sees a dog, it has four legs and fur. But when they see a cat they create a new schema for cats.

Answer Process of assimilation adds on to pre-existing information/experiences.

example: going back to our cat-dog example. When they develop a concept of a dog as being a four-legged thing with fur, when they see a cat they will place the cat in the same category as a dog and be like "that's a dog" to anything that fits their concept of a dog.

Earth's early atmosphere was primarily composed of

Paul [167]

Answer:

The correct answer is ''carbon dioxide, water vapor and nitrogen.''

Explanation:

About 4.5 billion years ago, Earth was a very geologically active planet. So many volcanic fumes formed the primitive atmosphere, which was mostly made up of water vapor, carbon dioxide, sulfur, and nitrogen. At this point, oxygen was barely present and the oceans did not yet exist. The primitive atmosphere is the one before the Precambrian, it was reductive, that is, it lacked free oxygen, and only had ammonia, methane and hydrogen, the high temperature of the atmosphere in its early stages facilitated the reaction of these gases to form organic compounds from which life may have emerged. UV rays passed, because ozone did not exist.

Question 1 of 34

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

A) They occupy different niches due to competition for food.

Explanation:

According to Joseph Grinnel - "An ecological niche is the distributional unit within which each species is held by its structural and instinctive limitation. No two species in the same general territory can occupy the same ecological niche". Hence, the two lizard species have separated their trophic niches i.e. the ecological niche in which they feed, as they both have common preys that is the insects. this will avoid competition and would provide enough food for both the species.

Why meiosis and mitosis are required in sexually reproducing organisms (like humans)

klemol [59]

Mitosis and meiosis both involve cells dividing to make new cells. This makes them both vital processes for the existence of living things that reproduce sexually. Meiosis makes the cells needed for sexual reproduction to occur, and mitosis replicates non-sex cells needed for growth and development. Together, they provide the cellular basis for healthy growth and sexual reproduction.
