Explanation:
Ecological succession is the process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time. The time scale can be decades (for example, after a wildfire), or even millions of years after a mass extinction.[1]
Succession after disturbance: a boreal forest one year (left) and two years (right) after a wildfire.
The community begins with relatively few pioneering plants and animals and develops through increasing complexity until it becomes stable or self-perpetuating as a climax community. The "engine" of succession, the cause of ecosystem change, is the impact of established organisms upon their own environments. A consequence of living is the sometimes subtle and sometimes overt alteration of one's own environment.[2]
It is a phenomenon or process by which an ecological community undergoes more or less orderly and predictable changes following a disturbance or the initial colonization of a new habitat. Succession may be initiated either by formation of new, unoccupied habitat, such as from a lava flow or a severe landslide, or by some form of disturbance of a community, such as from a fire, severe windthrow, or logging. Succession that begins in new habitats, uninfluenced by pre-existing communities is called primary succession, whereas succession that follows disruption of a pre-existing community is called secondary succession.
Succession was among the first theories advanced in ecology. Ecological succession was first documented in the Indiana Dunes of Northwest Indiana and remains at the core of much ecological science.[3]

Why would scientists conduct research on a newly discovered alternative fuel?
A. To maintain the public dependence on fossil fuels
B. To maintain the success of the petroleum industry
C. To confirm that the alternative fuel is cleaner than fuels currently used
D. To confirm that the alternative fuel increases atmospheric carbon dioxde.
Answer:
C. To confirm that the alternative fuel is cleaner than fuels currently used
Explanation:
The current fuels from mining, cutting down trees and even transportation is bad for the atmosphere. These fuels cause climate change which could potentially bring a lot of dangers. The reason scientists would conduct research on a newly alternative fuel is so that the fuel would be a lot more cleaner which could prevent the dangers that are to come.

Explanation:
The modern synthesis combined the concepts of _______ and evolution. If a population is at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the allele frequencies must be _______.
Answer:
The correct answer would be - genetics, constant.
Explanation:
The modern synthesis is a unified evolution theory that came forward by the fusion of Mendelian genetics with Darwinian evolution. It is focused on the genetic basis of evolution as it defines evolution as changes in the allele frequency in the population.
If a population is at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the allele frequencies remain the same in the population unless there is no change is applied to it. It will remain constant only if there is no mutation, infinite population size, no gene flow, random mating, and no selection.
Answer:
1. natural selection
2. constant from generation to generation in the absence of other evolutionary influences.

what is the difference between sleet and freezing rain?
Answer:
Freezing rain comes when the cold layer is small. This doesn't allow the raindrops to fully freeze before hitting the ground. Sleet forms when there is enough time for the raindrops to freeze completely before hitting the ground
Explanation:
Sleet is already half-frozen, while freezing rain is icey cold and freezes when it hits the ground

A city government hired an independent company to test the city's air quality and report back with their findings. After the study, the company informed the city government that the air quality was acceptable by state standards. Which of the following would be the best way for the company to defend such a conclusion? A. Provide the city with scientific data that clearly supports their findings. B. Provide the city with a survey showing that the public supports the study. C. Tell the city that the company has scientists who are experts in air quality. D. Tell the city that the company has invested large sums of money in its tests.
Answer:
a
Explanation:
For defending the scientific data should be provided that support the finding.
What is scientific data?Scientific data refers to the information i.e. collected by applying particular methods for a general-purpose of studying or analyzing the data. Since the city government hired an independent company for the finding so for this, the scientific data should be used for supporting the finding.

Como resultado del proceso de la fotosíntesis se elimina a través de los estomas a La glucosa b) El oxígeno. C) El dióxido de carbono d ) Oxígeno y dióxido de carbono
Answer:
Como resultado del proceso de la fotosíntesis se elimina a través de los estomas el oxígeno.
Explanation:
La fotosíntesis es un proceso metabólico que llevan a cabo determinadas células de organismos autótrofos, es decir, aquellas que tienen la capacidad de producir su propio alimento, como las plantas. Con este proceso, las plantas captan la energía de la luz solar y la transforman en energía química, para producir materia orgánica a través de materia inorgánica.
Los procesos que llevan a cabo las plantas en la fotosíntesis se llevan a cabo en 2 etapas: en la primera etapa las plantas absorben el agua del suelo a través de las raíces. A través de sus tallos lo transportan hasta sus hojas. En estos se encuentra el pigmento llamado clorofila, que además de darle a la hoja el color verde, capta la luz solar y rompe la molécula de agua (H₂O), separando el hidrógeno (H) del oxígeno (O₂). En esta etapa se almacena energía y se libera oxígeno al medio ambiente.
La otra etapa es capturar dióxido de carbono. Esto proporciona los átomos de carbono y oxígeno que, junto con el hidrógeno y la energía almacenada, formarán la molécula de glucosa.
Entonces, los estomas son poros en la superficie de las plantas, encontrándose mayoritariamente en las hojas y en menor medida en los tallos y otros órganos. En ellas transcurre el intercambio gaseoso mecánico, es decir que en este lugar sale el oxígeno y entra dióxido de carbono en la fotosíntesis.
Por lo que, como resultado del proceso de la fotosíntesis se elimina a través de los estomas el oxígeno.

As skeletal muscle is further stretched beyond the length where optimum force is developed, ________. As skeletal muscle is further stretched beyond the length where optimum force is developed, ________. the thick filaments overlap one another, thereby reducing their ability to interact with actin the thin filaments overlap one another, thereby reducing their ability to interact with myosin the thick filaments are pulled away from one another, thereby reducing their ability to interact with actin the thin filaments are pulled away from one another, thereby reducing their ability to interact with myosin the amount of calcium released by the sarcoplasmic reticulum is reduced as length increases
Answer:
the thin filaments are pulled away from one another, thereby reducing their ability to interact with myosin
Explanation:
The myofibril is the basic unit of a muscle cell. Each myofibril is composed of contractile units known as sarcomeres which may contain two different types of myofilaments: thick myofilaments and thin myofilaments. The thick filaments are known to have a constant length, and they consist especially of myosin proteins. These filaments (thick) do not extend to the ends. On the other hand, the thin filaments extend in from each end, and they are mainly composed of actin proteins that serve as tracks for the movement of myosin proteins.
How do some chemicals increase the risk of a person getting cancer ?
A. By causing an increase of toxins in the skin
B. By causing cell mutations
C. By causing a deficiency of vitamin D
D. By causing a decrease in the immune response
Some chemicals increase the risk of a person getting cancer by causing cell mutations. Hence, option B is correct.
What do you mean by Mutations?Mutations may be defined as the sudden, stable, and inheritable change in the genetic material of the living entities.
Chemicals like ethidium bromide, acridine orange, benzopyrene, etc are carcinogens, i.e. the agents of causing cancer.
These agents are responsible for causing mutations in the cell which leads to cancer.
Therefore, some chemicals increase the risk of a person getting cancer by causing cell mutations.
