<span>Predict which species of finch would be most likely to survive if the weather on the Galapagos Islands gradually changed and the seeds available to the finches became larger with heavier coverings.
Answer: The </span><span>species of finch that would be most likely to survive are </span>Large Ground Finches because they have big, thick beaks to break the seed-heavy coverings.
Answer:
periosteum ----> dense irregular connective tissue
Explanation:
- The periosteum is a dense fibrous membrane that covers the surfaces of bones.
The periosteum consists of two layers-
1. Outer fibrous layer
2. Inner cellular layer
- It is mainly composed of dense irregular connective tissue along with a layer of simple squamous epithelium.
- The function of periosteum is to cover the surface of all the bones except those surfaces that are covered with cartilage such as joints and tendons and ligaments.
In human, Oogenesis in comparison to spermatogenesis is different in that Oogenesis does not complete meiosis until after fertilization, but spermatogenesis is complete before the sperm leave the body. Oogenesis is the process by which the female gametes, or ova are created in the female's ovary. Spermatogenesis is the process in which males synthesis sperms. The two process are part of gametogenesis which involves meiosis type of cell division, in which a diploid cell divides into four haploid daughter cells.
The chemical formula for water is H2O which means that every molecule of water has 2 atoms of hydrogen (H) and one atom of oxygen (O). Here comes the key part. From the Periodic Table of Elements, one sees that one molecule of oxygen atoms weigh 16 grams.
I apologize if this is not what you meant. If you have further questions just tell me.
There are choices for this question namely:
a) Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic.
b) Decadron is an antibiotic.
c) Bactrim is a bronchodilator.
d) Albuterol is a bronchodilator.
<span>e) Prednisone is a corticosteroid.

The correct answers are "ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic", "albuterol is a bronchodilator", and "prednisone is a corticosteroid". Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic in the class of fluoroquinolones, effective against respiratory infections since patients with COPD has mucus hypersecretion which predisposes the patient to respiratory infections. Other antibiotics include respiratory fluoroquinolones such as levofloxacin and moxifloxacin, cephalosporins such as cefuroxime and ceftriaxone, and beta-lactams such as co-amoxiclav. Albuterol is a short acting beta-agonist (SABA) which actions as a bronchodilator by relaxing bronchial smooth muscles. Other popular SABA is salbutamol. Prednisone is a corticosteroid which actions to prevent inflammation by blocking the arachidonic acid pathway and therefore block the formation of inflammatory mediators.
Decadron is dexamethasone which is a steroid. Bactrim is TMP/SMX which is an antibiotic.
