Answer:

Humans burn fossil fuels, clear trees, change land use, creating smog that traps the carbon in the Earth's atmosphere, leading the oceans to absorb the heat and eventually end up with global warming and ocean acidification.

Some people argue that evolution, which is generally associated with progressive increases in the

yKpoI14uk [10]

This argument would not be valid because it fails to take into account the mechanisms through which evolution occurs and misunderstands the second law of thermodynamics.

The second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of a system must always increase. The argument stating that this law disproves evolution given that evolution can be considered as a decrease in entropy, fails to realize that the second law states that the total entropy must increase, this does not mean that entropy cannot decrease at one point, to then increase more so at another.

The other aspect of evolution that this argument fails to account for is that evolution is a chaotic process. Evolution, though having a final product that may be considered as increasing in organization, is at heart a chaotic process caused by random mutations and the fragile process of natural selection. Therefore, rather than disprove it, the second law of thermodynamics is actually the driving force behind continued evolution.

Assume that the mutation rate for a given gene is 1 × 10−6 mutations per generation. For that gene, how many mutations would be

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

500

Explanation:

Mutation rate is largely known as changes that occur in the frequency of a particular gene over an extended period of time

So given that;

the mutation rate of a particular gene = 1 × 10⁻⁶

The expected mutations after 500 million sperm are examined will be:

= (1 × 10⁻⁶)×(500,000,000)

= 500

Thus, The expected mutations = 500

How is carbon moving between the air and found it decreasing

ratelena [41]

Answer:

Animals and plants need to get rid of carbon dioxide gas through a process called respiration. Carbon moves from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are burned.

The oceans, and other bodies of water, absorb some carbon from the atmosphere. The carbon is dissolved into the water.

What are the limiting factors in a habitat

hoa [83]

In the natural world, limiting factors like the availability of food, water, shelter and space can change animal and plant populations. Other limiting factors, like competition for resources, predation and disease can also impact populations.
