Waves are folds of water cause by the gravitational pull of the moon.
When waves occur, it mixes the water and makes it to where there's less algae and gunk in the water, making it more inhabitable for sea life.
General paradigms of species extinction risk are urgently needed as global habitat loss and rapid climate change threaten Earth with what could be its sixth mass extinction. Using the stony coral Lophelia pertusa as a model organism with the potential for wide larval dispersal, we investigated how the global ocean conveyor drove an unprecedented post-glacial range expansion in Earth׳s largest biome, the deep sea. We compiled a unique ocean-scale dataset of published radiocarbon and uranium-series dates of fossil corals, the sedimentary protactinium–thorium record of Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) strength, authigenic neodymium and lead isotopic ratios of circulation pathways, and coral biogeography, and integrated new Bayesian estimates of historic gene flow. Our compilation shows how the export of Southern Ocean and Mediterranean waters after the Younger Dryas 11.6 kyr ago simultaneously triggered two dispersal events in the western and eastern Atlantic respectively. Each pathway injected larvae from refugia into ocean currents powered by a re-invigorated AMOC that led to the fastest postglacial range expansion ever recorded, covering 7500 <span>km in under 400 years. In addition to its role in modulating global climate, our study illuminates how the ocean conveyor creates broad geographic ranges that lower extinction risk in the deep sea.</span>
Answer:
excretory system and circulatory system
Explanation:
Blood is part of circulatory system and as it move through various organs it exchanges the gases i.e give oxygen to the cell and take carbon dioxide from them. After taking CO2, the blood becomes impure and hence it passes through the kidney before going to the heart. Kidney is part of excretory system which removes carbon dioxide from blood and thus purifies it.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
A. <em>18 hydrogen atoms </em>
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>Alkanes are group of hydrocarbon that are saturated</u></em>. They are saturated in the sense that each carbon atom has maximum number of hydrogen atoms.
- <em><u>The homologous series of alkanes has a general formula of CₓH₂ₓ₊₂.</u></em>
- Therefore,<u><em> an alkane with 8 carbons will have; (2×8) +2 = 18 hydrogen atoms. </em></u>Thus, the formula of the hyrocarbon will be; C₈H₁₈.
The correct answer is option (A) the fossil record.
Coordinated stasis refers to the stasis or the no evolutionary changes in the organisms for millions of years, which is followed by extinction and formation of the new species.
Fossil records have the evidence of ecological and evolutionary stability in the species over a long period of geological time scale separated by intervals of abrupt change. The best example of this being the animals of the Middle Devonian Hamilton group. Thus, fossil record is the only source of record showing this long period of stasis and separated by periods of abrupt changes in the species due to environmental pressures.
