When two populations of animals which arose from a common ancestor become geographically separated, the populations become increasingly different from one another as each adapts independently to a suite of unique ecological conditions. These populations are said to be __________. Conversely, when two populations of animals, especially those arising from unrelated ancestors, become increasingly similar as they adapt to common (shared) ecological conditions, they are said to be __________

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

divergent; convergent

Explanation:

The first populations of animals are said to have evolutionally diverged while the second populations are said to have evolutionally converged.

In divergent evolution, closely related animal populations accumulate differences (due to differences in their environments) so much so that they can become different species.

In convergent evolution, different animal populations evolve similar traits (due to similarities in their environment).

Hence, the correct words to fill the gaps would be divergent and convergent respectively.

What are the methods of waste disposal ? Write in briefly.​

Answers

Answer:

Methods of waste disposal are :-

Biogas plant: - Biodegradable material is used to produce biogas and manure.

Sewage treatment plant: The drain water is treated at plants before adding it to river.

Land filings: - The waste are buried in low-lying areas and compacted with bulldozers.

Composting: - Organic waste are filled in compost pit to make compost for plants.

Recycle: - This means that you collect plastic, paper, glass and metal items and recycle these materials to make required things instead of synthesizing or extracting fresh plastic, paper, glass or metal. In order to recycle, we first need to segregate our wastes so that the material that can be recycled is not dumped along with other wastes.

Reuse: - This is actually even better than recycling because the process of recycling uses some energy. In the ‘reuse’ strategy, you simply use things again and again. Instead of throwing away used envelopes, you can reverse it and use it again. The plastic bottles in which you buy various food-items like jam or pickle can be used for storing things in the kitchen.

Refuse: -This means to say No to things people offer you that you do not need. Refuse to buy products that can harm you and the environment, say No to single-use plastic carry bags.

Repurpose - This means when a product can no more be used for the original purpose, think carefully and use it for some other useful purpose. For example, cracked crockery, or cups with broken handles can be used to grow small plants and as feeding vessels for birds.

Answers

Answer:

there are no possible changes adaptations

Explanation:

what i mean by that is if a substantial amount of pollution enters the water cycle its going to be nearly impossible for it to get out

If water present on earth is polluted anywhere in the cycle, it starts affecting the system of water and percolation as well as plants become limited that what they will do in order to clean the water. It is possible that if ground is polluted than water will also get polluted. It means that the water present on earth is same the water present from the beginning and will continue to be the same water that is available.

What is groundwater?

Groundwater has been defined as water present in the underground water below the soil as well as in the cracks of the earth. The percentage of freshwater in the world would be 30%. There are mainly three types of groundwater and these are hand-dug wells, as well assprings, and drilled boreholes.

The water stored under the ground has obtained from the rain and stored in the ground so that it can be used later. Ground water has very clean and fit for drinking and the reason could be the soil present on top and work as filter and the groundwater is free from all microorganisms.

Therefore, If water present on earth is polluted anywhere in the cycle, it starts affecting the system of water and percolation as well as plants become limited that what they will do in order to clean the water. It is possible that if ground is polluted than water will also get polluted. It means that the water present on earth is same the water present from the beginning and will continue to be the same water that is available.

help me ..it's a MCQ

Answers

Explanation:

I think your answer is D, and let me explain why.

Heat can denature proteins quickly because proteins have very specific temperatures at which they act best. If the temperature rises too high/falls too low with respect to that threshold, then that will cause the proteins to stop working properly and eventually die.

pH is also very important with how proteins work, and it's the same reason as heat. Proteins have a certain range of pH's that keep them healthy and working, but as soon as the pH changes dramatically outside of that range, the proteins will be quickly denatured.

And lastly, organic solvents can denature proteins as well (e.g. alcohol), which makes sense because they are solvents (a solvent is something that dissolves other substances). I'm not sure about the exact chemistry / biological responses behind it, but it's what would be expected of a solvent.

With all of this in mind, I think your answer should be D!

It is impossible for sperm to be functional (able to fertilize the egg) until after ________. Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "they undergo capacitation"

Explanation:

Sperm migrate through uterine contractions and the energies of its flagella to the uterine tube. In sperm motility, reverse peristalsis is engaged in the uterus and uterine tubes. For a sperm cell to fertilize an egg, it takes approximately 24 hours. The surface of the egg changes as the sperm penetrates the egg, therefore no sperm is allowed within. The kid is fully genetic, including whether it's a boy or a girl at the time of fertilization. Until they are trained it is difficult for sperm to be working.

What would most likely happen to a native predator species if a nonnative predator species were introduced to an area?

A. The native species would force the nonnative species out of the community

B. The native species population would decrease because the nonnative species would be competing for food sources.

C. The native species population would increase because the nonnative species would introduce new food sources.

D. The native species would outcompete the nonnative species.

Answers

Answer:

B. The native species population would decrease because the nonnative species would be competing for food sources.

Explanation:

This question is describing the effect of invasive species. Invasive species are foreign species i.e. not native to a habitat or area, introduced into the area with the ability to outcompete and negatively affect the native species of that area.

Invasive species compete with the native species for food, space, mate etc., and tend to outgrow them. Hence, if a nonnative predator (invasive) species were introduced to an area, the native predator species in that area would decrease because the nonnative species would be competing for food sources.

The great hornbill and the toucan both eat the same fruit, insects, and nuts. They both live in the rainforest. Their large bills function to get food and also as warning coloration. Which of the following is a limiting factor to the toucan population?
overlapping breeding seasons
bill coloration
genetic variability
competition

Answers

The correct answer is D. Competition.

Explanation

A limiting factor is a term that refers to the scarcity factor of a resource that limits the development and evolution of a specific species or process. According to what is described in the question, it can be inferred that the limiting factor of toucans is competition because the great hornbill lives in the same tropical forest as the toucan, it feeds on the same foods as the toucan: fruit, insects, and walnuts. So, competition for the same resources is a limiting factor for toucans since the absence of food can affect their development. So the correct respect is the D. Competition.

You treat a sample of DNA with DNase and run the digested fragments out on an electrophoretic gel. You found mostly long fragments. What can you conclude about this sample of DNA

Answers

Answer:

the sample contains mostly heterochromatin  

Explanation:

Heterochromatin refers to a highly condensed state of DNA, whereas euchromatin is lightly packed. It is for that reason that heterochromatin is associated with a transcriptionally inactive state, whereas euchromatin regions are active for transcription. Heterochromatin regions resist DNases because these enzymes don't cut DNA randomly, but they show sequence preference. In consequence, highly repetitive DNA heterochromatin regions (e.g., centromeres, telomeres, etc) may exhibit resistance to DNA cleavage.
