 Hope this helps! 

A collision of two galaxies has left a merged star system with an unusual appearance as well as bizarre internal motions. Messier 64 (M64) has a spectacular dark band of absorbing dust in front of the galaxy's bright nucleus, giving rise to its nicknames of the "Black Eye" or "Evil Eye" galaxy.

Fine details of the dark band are revealed in this image of the central portion of M64 obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope. M64 is well known among amateur astronomers because of its appearance in small telescopes. It was first cataloged in the 18th century by the French astronomer Messier. Located in the northern constellation Coma Berenices, M64 resides roughly 17 million light-years from Earth.

What prediction can you make about the impact of these threats on the resident populations versus the transient populations?
Mariulka [41]

Answer: A) The resident populations are more likely affected by these threats because of their proximity to shore.

Explanation:

All of these threats are higher in coastal regions.

As contaminants usually reach the ocean through rivers or because of coastal cities, the highest degree of pollution is there. All chemicals will accumulate in this region first, before they disperse into the offshore region. This is also caused by the fact that the coastal waters have a lower volume and surface area than the offshore which results in a higher degree of contamination.

Which event started the Pequot war?
Tanya [424]
<span>The division of the fur trade was mostly the spark of the Pequot war. The Pequot war is a conflict between the Pequot tribe and the alliances that the European colonists have made in Massachusetts Bay, Plymouth, and Saybrook colonies and their native tribe alliance with the Mohegan tribes. <span>

<span>It was a dispute that the Pequots lost; where about an approximate of 700 of these tribesmen were either killed or sent to slavery. Access to the control of fur trade divided the two tribes when they both decided to realign with English trade sources. The Pequots made an alliance with the Dutch, while the Mohegan made an alliance with the English. </span></span></span>
