Answer:

I remember doing a question like this in class while learning about natural selection. The 2 colorations of moth live in a habitat that originally supported the lighter variant due to the light-colored trees. When the industrial revolution began, the soot levels reversed this because the black moths were more camouflaged that the lighter ones. A way we could prove this was the amount of black dresses and dark colored clothing during the time, often due to the fact that lighter colored clothing would turn black by the time the wearer arrived home. The lighter colored moths simply died off a bit because of this.

If an invasive species is added into a food chain/web, it becomes overpopulated/a pest because it has no natural predators.

It can also disrupt the food chain/web by eating the food supplies of the native organism leading to competitions.

What happens when there is a temperature difference between two objects

agasfer [191]

Hey there!

If there is a temperature difference between two objects, the object that has a higher temperature will want to level out its heat. Therefore, it will transfer the heat it needs to the other object if it allows until they are the same temperature.

I hope this helps!

What kind of variation is exhibited by human bloods?

kotykmax [81]

<span>Blood provides an ideal opportunity for the study of human variation without cultural prejudice. It can be easily classified for many different genetically inherited blood typing systems. Also significant is the fact that we rarely take blood types into consideration in selecting mates. In addition, few people know their own type today and no one did prior to 1900. As a result, differences in blood type frequencies around the world are most likely due to other factors than social discrimination. Contemporary Japan is somewhat of an exception since there are popular Japanese stereotypes about people with different blood types. This could affect choice in marriage partners for some Japanese. </span>All human populations share the same 29 known blood systems, although they differ in the frequencies of specific types. Given the evolutionary closeness of apes and monkeys to our species, it is not surprising that some of them share a number of blood typing systems with us as well. When we donate blood or have surgery, a small sample is usually taken in advance for at least ABO and Rh systems typing. If you are O+, the O is your ABO type and the + is your Rh type. It is possible to be A, B, AB, or O as well as Rh+ or Rh- You inherited your blood types from your parents and the environment in which you live cannot change them.
