6 0

Answer:

Coral reefs ecosystem : It is a type of ecosystem which is present inside the ocean water. It is made up of coral, sponges and crustaceans etc.

It is very important to conserve biodiversity of marine because more than twenty five percent of marine animals are live there. If these coral reefs are removed from marine ecosystem, many species of marine such as fishes, crustaceans will be adversely affected.

Scientists studied reproduction in the New Zealand mud snail. They wanted to determine whether reproducing sexually or asexually
lubasha [3.4K]

A hypothesis is a claim that expresses a relationship between variables. D) Asexual reproduction is advantageous over sexual reproduction because it decreases the snails’ need for social interaction.

<h3>What is a hypothesis?</h3>

A hypothesis is a scientific conjecture, not verified, that requires corroboration. It is a possibility, but not a fact. It is a claim of how it works a relationship between two or more variables.

The researcher hypothesizes in order to predict what is going on or what is expected to occur.

A hypothesis must express what is expected to occur in a perfectly comprehensive manner. There must be a logical relationship between the involved variables. It must be objective. Usually, it is written in the present time.

There are different kinds of hypotheses: descriptive, correlative, differentiative, or causative.  

In the exposed example, researchers wanted to determine whether reproducing sexually or asexually was more beneficial for the snails.

Options,

A) <em>Sexual reproduction is advantageous over asexual reproduction because it reduces the rate of mutation accumulation. </em>

The benefit of reproducing sexually is that the risk of mutation is lower.

B) <em>Asexual reproduction is advantageous over sexual reproduction because it allows the snails to produce more offspring.</em>

<em />

The benefit of reproducing asexually is that a higher number of descendants are produced, which increases reproductive success.

C) Sexual reproduction is advantageous over asexual reproduction because it allows for snails to have increased genetic variation.

The benefit of reproducing sexually is that it increases genetic variation.

D) Asexual reproduction is advantageous over sexual reproduction because it decreases the snails’ need for social interaction.

The benefit of reproducing asexually is that there is no need for social interaction.

Social interaction does not really benefit snails as a species. This is not a variable that might influence in a significant way snails.

However, variables like the mutation rate, variability, and the number of descendants are useful to test how they benefit or not the snails.  

The hypotheses that would least likely aid the scientists to answer the question is <u>option D</u>.

What problem is solved by the linnaean system of classification
MissTica

Due to the linneaus system of classification scientist were able to identify  organism name , group via standardized system . They have found similarities  in the organism  like DNA / RNA ( genetic composition), embryonic development  etc . so that they can study a organism completely . With the help of this system of classification  scientist were able to give a particular name to a organism which is standardrized in the whole universe. It makes easier to all to identify an organism , otherwise different places have different name for a particular species.
