Stabilization Selection


In Stabilization Selection there is a decrease in the amount of variation. In the case of Stabilization Selection, selective pressures must select against two extremes of a particular trait. Two opposing selection pressures will combine to maintain a median height. Rather than resulting in extremely tall plants or extremely short plants, the majority of the plants in this population will be of medium height. Credit: Kalahira

marishachu [46]

The correct answer is option C, that is, physical weathering.  

The weathering resulting due to the influences of changing temperatures on a rock, making the rock to split apart is known as physical weathering. There are two main kinds of physical weathering, that is, exfoliation and freeze-thaw.  

Physical weathering takes place mainly in the locations, where few plants grow and little formation of soil occurs, like hot deserts and mountain regions. It takes place either via repeated freezing and melting of water or via contraction and expansion of the rocks surface layer, which is baked by the sun.

zhenek [66]

First, a complete digestive system means that the digestive tract has a beginning or the oral end and the opposite end or the aboral end. This is found in more complex animals starting from roundworms (flatworms have an incomplete digestive tract). A closed circulatory system is found in animals more recent than mollusks. The presence of the coelom makes it more evolved than the flatworms. 


Specifically, a small animal with a segmented body, short stiff appendages, and soft skin with the above characteristics point out to the phylum Annelida or annelids.

A man runs on a track for 120 minutes with a velocity of 4mi/hr. How far will the man have traveled when he come to a stop?
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

8 miles

Explanation:

Velocity is speed+direction (the speed of something in a given direction). We know that running on a track, one is moving forwards, which is why the velocity given as positive. Now we do some simple algebra. 120 minutes is equal to 2 hours. At a velocity of 4 miles an hour, for 2 hours, you multiply 4x2 and get 8, which is how far (in miles, units are important) the man has traveled once he comes to a stop.
