Answer:
Date and latitude interact to determine photoperiod, the daily period of daylight. This interaction has important implications for latitudinal migrants for whom daylight may be a resource or for whom photoperiod regulates annual transitions in life‐history stages (i.e. birds).
Using an established formula, we developed user‐interactive, animated models that enable the visualization of how latitude and date determine photoperiod for latitudinal migrants. We also calculated the photoperiodic schedules for a broad range of hypothetical migratory programmes and real migratory programmes newly available through the proliferation of citizen‐science data. This enabled us to infer the limitations some migratory programmes place on mechanisms for photoperiodic regulation of annual breeding.
In the vast majority of cases, the act of migrating elevates annual daylight exposure. This raises the hypothesis that daylight availability selects for latitudinal migration, potentially contributing to its evolution in animals such as diurnal birds with limited time during the spring and summer to feed young. However, photoperiodic mechanisms regulating annual cycles could constrain the evolution of such migrations, depending on how they affect photoperiodic schedules. Most migratory programmes are consistent with known mechanisms of avian photoperiodism, but the range of feasible mechanisms declines for transequatorial migrants, which experience semi‐annual, 180°‐phase‐shifts in their photoperiodic cycles.
Understanding photoperiodic constraints on migration are particularly important in this age of changing latitudinal distributions and phenologies driven by climate change.
Hope this helps and have a great day!!! :D
Answer:
When conducting research, scientists use the scientific method to collect
measurable, empirical evidence in an experiment related to a hypothesis (often in
the form of an if/then statement), the results aiming to support or contradict a
theory.
Nephrons are the filtering structures of the kidneys. The
kidneys contain millions and millions of these tiny filtering structures that
are responsible for cleaning the blood. Nephrons are responsible for removing
excess water, wastes, and other substances in the blood that are not needed by
the body. They also return necessary substances (e.g. sodium, potassium,
phosphorus) whenever the body runs low in supply.
If these nephrons are damaged, blood will not be properly
filtered. As a result, the kidney will have different diseases and this might
lead to kidney and multiple organ failure.

Answer:
Translation
Explanation:
Translation is the second process that occurs in protein synthesis. It is the process whereby mRNA template is used to synthesize an amino acid sequence, which eventually becomes a protein.
The process of translation occurs in the cytoplasm (specifically in the ribosome). As depicted in this image, the mRNA produced during transcription is transported out of the nucleus into the cytoplasm. A RNA molecule called tRNA reads the mRNA sequence (codon by codon) and carries corresponding amino acid into the growing amino acid sequence.
Hence, according to this question, the process occuring at B according to this image is TRANSLATION.
Hormones are transported through the blood stream to target cells.
