There are several. there is rainwater*, glaciers, and rivers/streams.
*the rainwater I am talking about is the kind that falls from the country. no acid rain
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Zebra mussels can be a nuisance in novel ecosystems. When introduced in a non-native ecosystem with no natural predators, they reproduce rapidly displacing native mussels. Zebra mussels take up much of the algar that feeds the other native species hence starving them to death and causing their numbers to plummet. In addition, they attach to the other mussels and clog up power plants, that use the local water, water intakes.
Answer:
This question lacks options, the options are:
A. chemical energy -> kinetic energy
B. kinetic energy -> solar energy
C. solar energy -> chemical energy
D. kinetic energy -> nuclear energy
The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
All living organisms need energy to carry out certain processes in their body. This energy is obtained in form of ATP (chemical energy) when their food molecules is broken down via a process called CELLULAR RESPIRATION.
This chemical energy (ATP) is needed to perform cellular processes in the body. According to this question, a chipmunk (animal) will utilize the energy it derives (ATP) from breaking down plant sugars to carry out its cell processes. This means that it will transform CHEMICAL ENERGY → KINETIC ENERGY.
Note that, kinetic energy is the energy due to motion in the Chipmunk.
Diversifying selection, describes changes in population genetics in which extreme values for a trait are favored over intermediate values. The variance of the trait increases and the population is divided into two distinct groups. In the above question an example of diversifying selection is A population of moths with white and grey forms lives in a forest containing trees with light and dark bark.
Natural selection is the differential survival and
reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype. It provides a
viable explanation for adaptation and speciation as it explains the change in
heritable traits characteristic of a population over time. Changes that allow an organism to better adapt
to its environment will help it survive and have more offspring. Natural
selection can change a species in small ways, causing a population to change
color or size over the course of several generations. Given enough time and
enough accumulated changes, natural selection can create entirely new species. It
can turn dinosaurs into birds, amphibious mammals into whales and the ancestors
of apes into humans.
