Answer:
The 2 ways abiotic factors affect biotic factors are as follows:
- An alligator submerges itself under water to stay cool in the summer.
- A naked mole rat creates burrows underground.
Explanation:
Abiotic Factors:
All non-living factors that is present or influences an ecosystem. Abiotic factors determine the dynamics of an ecosystem such as the terrain, the atmosphere as well as the inhabitant flora and fauna. Water, sunlight, oxygen, temperature, and soil are all abiotic factors.
Biotic Factors:
All living factors in an ecosystem i.e. the plants and animals.
Lets analyze all the options:
- A bird picking food out of an alligator's teeth is an interaction between 2 biotic factors, the bird and the alligator or in another case, the bird and the food.
- Water being oxygenated is an interaction between 2 abiotic factors: water and oxygen.
When scientists try to use the explanation of the natural world to understand patterns, they are making PREDICTIONS about natural events. For example, volcanic eruptions.
Answer:
The correct answer is B. <em>The cells in the outer skin surface appeared flat, whereas the cells in the cross section were not flat.</em>
Explanation:
The epidermis is made up of five cell layers, which have different functions: Stratum basale, stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum, stratum lucidum, and stratum corneum.
- <u><em>Stratum basale</em></u> is the <em>innermost germinative, single, basal layer of the epidermis </em>composed of basal cuboidal-shaped cells. These cells are the precursor of keratinocytes, this is why this layer is also called germinativum. In this basal layer, there are also Merkel cells as well as melanocytes.
- <em><u>Stratum spinosum</u></em> refers to the keratinocytes which produce keratin.
- <u><em>Stratum granulosum</em></u>, this is the layer where keratinization begins. Cells produce hard granules that change to keratin and lipids as they ascend.
- <u><em>Stratum lucidum</em></u> is conformed of densely compressed cells, which begins to flatten and appear indistinguishable between each other.
- <u><em>Stratum corneum</em></u> is the most external layer, composed of dead, flattened cells which are released regularly in a process known as desquamation.
Answer:
Explanation:
Although no two look pups alike, these puppies have inherited genes from both parents and share many of the same characteristics. Organisms grow and develop following specific instructions coded for by their genes. I hope this helps!
