1. Whether or not height affects running speed.
2. She and her friend Melissa exercised equal amounts, but Melissa still ran faster, so Sally wanted to know why.
3. speed
4. quantitative
5. males vs female data, so gender, and how much each test subject exercises, so their athleticism
6. Gender, distance ran
7. no
8. 1 trial as a class, but independent data for each student, so I would say there were as many trials as students in the class
The correct answer is - D. A drought kills all the plants in an area, leaving bare land.
If there's such a big drought that will manage to kill off all the vegetation in an area and leave bare land behind it, than the land will be degraded in no time. Once the land is left without its natural protection that the roots of the vegetation provide, the land will be exposed to high rates of and erosion. The erosion will be very quick and the top layers of the soil will be moved away with every wind and rainfall that will appear. That will degrade the land to a very high degree, making it totally unusable and it will need lot of time to eventually recuperate.
1. I believe the answer is William Herschel.
Francis Galton is often credited with the discovery that everyone's fingerprints are unique and that they could therefore be used for identification. However his works is extensively based on the work of Dr. Henry Faulds, who appears to have a better claim to the discovery, along with British magistrate William Herschel.
2. I believe that the ratio of height to width indicate size and consistency in hand writing analysis. The ratio of height, width and size of letters is among the characteristics of handwriting analysis that entails whether the letters are consistent in height, width and size.
3. I believe the statement that describes the line quality in handwriting analysis is whether the letters are shaky or flow continuously. Line quality is an indication of speed and fluency; the better the quality, the more skilled, or at least fast, the movement of the pen.
4. The statement that best indicates pen pressure in hand writing analysis is the down strokes and upstrokes are an even width.
Pen pressure is the pressure equal or unequal when applied to upward and down ward strokes. The pen pressure of a writer indicates his physical and emotional energy.
5. I think what is measured in the ridge count is spacing between ridge lines.
Ridge counting is the the counting of the ridges that touch or cross the line of count drawn between the delta and core of loop patterns. A white space must always intervene between the delta and the first ridge to be counted.
Answer:
So it would be the first one, The variation in biological factors affecting a species.
Explanation:
Genetic diversity is the total number of genetic characteristics in the genetic makeup of a species, it ranges widely from the number of species to differences within species and can be attributed to the span of survival for a species.
All forms of life on earth, whether microbes, plants, animals, or human beings, contain genes. Genetic diversity is the sum of genetic information contained in the genes of individual plants, animals, and micro-organisms. Each species is the storehouse of an immense amount of genetic information in the form of traits, characteristics, etc. The number of genes ranges from about 1000 in bacteria to more than 400 000 in many flowering plants. Each species consists of many organisms and virtually no two members of the same species are genetically identical.
An important conservation consequence of this is that even if an endangered species is saved from extinction it has probably lost some of its internal diversity. Consequently, when populations expand again, they become more genetically uniform than their ancestors. There are mathematical formulas to express a genetically effective population size that explain the genetic effects on populations that have gone through a bottleneck before expanding again such as the African cheetah or the North American bison. Subsequent inbreeding in small populations may result in:
a) reduced fertility and
b) increased susceptibility to disease.
Genetic differentiation within species occurs as a result of sexual reproduction, in which genetic differences between individuals are combined in their offspring to produce new combinations of genes or from mutations causing changes in the DNA. Genetic diversity is usually mentioned with reference to agriculture and maintaining food security. This is because genetic erosion of several crops has already occurred leading to the world's dependence for food on just a few species. Currently, a mere 100-odd species account for 90% of the supply of food crops, and three crops – rice, maize, and wheat – account for 69% of the calories and 56% of the proteins that people derive from plants.
