Use the information and pictures to answer the following question.

In August 2010, the Asian Clam was discovered in Lake George. It is not native to that lake. A single Asian Clam can reproduce and release hundreds of offspring in a day. Fish and crayfish eat the clams but cannot keep pace with the rate at which the clams reproduce. The Asian Clam eats the same food as native clams.

A scientist set up two model lakes in large tanks with the same animal species as Lake George in order to test how the Asian Clam might be impacting the ecosystem. The scientists added Asian Clams to one tank but not the other tank.

Which statement BEST predicts what would likely happen in the experimental tank?

A.
The impact would be negative because it would reduce the amount of food available for the fish and crayfish populations.

B.
The impact would be positive because it would reduce competition with native clams and increase the stability of the ecosystem.

C.
The impact would be negative because it would increase competition with native clams and reduce the stability of the ecosystem.

D.
The impact would be positive because it would provide the fish and crayfish populations with food.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C.The impact would be negative because it would increase competition with native clams and reduce the stability of the ecosystem.

Explanation:

Since, It states that:

Tank 1:                                                   Tank 2:

Fish                                                             Fish

crayfish                                                   crayfish

Asian clam                              

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thus, since they both eat Asian clam which means competition as well as  it would be negative. Therefore, that left us with [C] .

Hence, Answer = [C]

Use the information to answer the following question.

The Blacklegged Tick is a parasite of the White-Footed Mouse. The White-Footed Mouse carries the bacteria which cause Lyme Disease. The bacteria are spread to ticks that bite infected mice. If an infected tick then bites a human, the human can be infected with the bacteria and develop Lyme Disease. Scientists have proposed that increased human development has led to an increase in the White-Footed Mouse population which can lead to increased cases of Lyme Disease in humans.

Answering which scientific question would BEST support the scientist’s hypothesis?

A.

Why is humus an effective fertilizer? (Select all that apply.)
It is abundant in inorganic nutrients.
It is dense and does not contain organic matter.

It doesn’t need microorganisms to decompose matter.

Answers

I think it is abundant In inorganic nutrients
Hii :)

The answer is: They are rich in organic matter.

Why are they rich in organic matter?

This is  because humus is made out of dead plants, fruits, and sometimes even animal waste. Which is all good for growing plants.

This is the only answer because the rest are wrong.

This is a 1-1 answer, meaning this is the only one that is correct.

For the first page: These adaptations are advantageous. For example, the dart frog’s bright colors warns predators to stay away from them. This will help them survive because they will not be bothered by any predators. Because the Hosta lives in such a crowded environment it is to its advantage that it has big leaves to get as much sunlight as possible. This makes it more likely to survive than other plants. Both of these advantages help the living thing to be stronger.
For page 2: These adaptations are advantageous. The Toucan has a long and narrow beak that helps it get fruit other birds cannot get. This gives them access to more food which can help them outlive other birds. The Monstera plant has adapted so that it does not mold. This helps it stay healthy whereas other plants may grow mold. These two organisms have adapted so that they have one sure advantage that will help them live longer than other species. The advantages are different but they both serve the same purpose.

d.
Mean = 24.8
Median = 26
Mode = 26


Please select the best answer from the choices provided

A
B
C
D

Answers

Answer:

D.

Mean: 24.8

Median: 26

Mode: 26

Explanation:

The mean is the average. To find the average, add up all the numbers and divide by the amount of numbers there are.

30 + 26 + 25 + 11 + 34 + 20 + 26 + 26 = 198

Now, we divide by how many numbers we started out with (8).

198 divided by 8 = 24.75, rounded would be 24.8

To find the median, you arrange the numbers from smallest to largest, and find the middle number like this:

11, 20, 25, 26, 26, 26, 30, 34

As you can see, the middle number is 26.

To find the mode, you arrange the number from smallest to largest, and find the number that appears more often.

11, 20, 25, 26, 26, 26, 30, 34

As you can see, the number 26 appears the most often.

So, we end up with:

Mean: 24.8

Median: 26

Mode: 26

Miohippus would be found in the uppermost layer of rock. Therefore, option (B) is correct.

What is Miohippus?

Miohippus is an extinct genus of early horse that lived in North America during the Miocene epoch, around 23 to 5 million years ago. It was a small, three-toed horse that was slightly larger than its predecessor, Mesohippus.

Miohippus had a relatively short face, with a long, narrow skull and teeth that were adapted for grinding tough vegetation. It is believed that Miohippus was the ancestor of the modern horse, and that its evolution was characterized by an increase in size, a reduction in the number of toes, and changes in the shape of the skull and teeth that allowed for a more efficient grazing diet.
