lung tissue. with this condition the lungs become stiff and have less elasticity. what would happen to the total lung capacity and vital capacity under these conditions? explain your reasoning for your response.

As described above, the condition will lead or cause the lung tissue to be less elastic. That being said, the lungs will be limited due to its stiffness. This will lead to decreased lung capacity as well as decreased vital capacity.

How can histograms help you describe a population? Use the word bank above to help you explain your answer.
krek1111 [17]

Answer: It shows the distribution of the population with respect to a characteristic, quantitative and continuous, such as the weight or height of a population. It is used to determine the degree of homogeneity of the values studied, or to see the degree of variability, and therefore, the dispersion of all the values taken by the parts.

Explanation:

A histogram is a graphical representation of a variable using bars. In such a bar, <u>its area is proportional to the frequency of the values represented</u>. Thus, it shows the distribution of the population, or of the sample, with respect to a characteristic, quantitative and continuous, such as the weight or height of a population. It is used to determine the degree of homogeneity of the values studied, or to see the degree of variability, and therefore, the dispersion of all the values taken by the parts.

In order to construct a histogram first we need to have a frequency table with all the information. On the abscissa axis (horizontal axis) the intervals are placed from smallest to largest.  On the ordinate axis (vertical axis), the absolute frequencies of each of the intervals are represented.  Then, the rectangular bars of equal width are drawn, and the height represents the absolute frequency. All bars touch the bars next to each other, unless an interval has zero frequency (the height of the bar will also be zero).

<u>Thus, histograms are used to describe populations since they represent a variable and in what proportion of the population it is found.</u>

A species of a hippo mates once a year every February 14. in the same community a different species of hippo mates a year in mar
xz_007 [3.2K]

The answer is ‘behavioral isolation’. It is a form of sympatric speciation - which occurs even when species live in the same habitat. In this case, the individuals in the population are isolated by differences in mating and probably different mating rituals.
