How did the work of Gregor Mendel contribute to our current understanding of evolution and speciation?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Gregor Mendel, through his work on pea plants, discovered the fundamental laws of inheritance. He deduced that genes come in pairs and are inherited as distinct units, one from each parent. Mendel tracked the segregation of parental genes and their appearance in the offspring as dominant or recessive traits.
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

He provided a basic understanding of mechanisms involved in heredity.

how does tourism and over hunting affect the populations of the Australian Freshwater Crocodile (Crocodylus Johnstoni) ???

Answers

Tourism can affect the swamp water, if traveled on a boat, with all the oil and stuff that is needed to get the boat running, and over hunting, can slowly kill all the crocodiles that live there affecting the crocodile population!

All living things are either Eukarya, Bacteria, or Archaea. These three broadest categories in the classification of life are called _______.

Answers

All living things are either Eukarya, Bacteria or Archaea. These three broadest categories in the classification of life are called domains. Classifying organisms is nothing new for people as people have been concerned about classifying organisms for thousands of years. Aristotle the Greek philosopher was the first person to have classified organisms about 2000 years ago. Aristotle’s classification is still used today for classifying any new organisms that are discovered. Later on Carl Linnaeus worked on the already discovered model of Aristotle to create a different kind of classification system.


what are the two factors that create the difference between the temperate forest biome in the taiga biome

Answers

The two factors that create the difference between the temperate forest biome and the taiga biome are as follows:

  • Temperature.
  • Precipitation.

What is a biome?

A biome may be characterized as a very large ecosystem that is consistently running in nature in an unmanaged way. In more simple words, it is defined as a very large area that is characterized by a particular type of vegetation. Some examples of biome may include tropical rainforests, coral reefs, grasslands, etc.

Taiga biomes are generally thick forests. Coniferous trees, such as spruce, pine, and fir, are common. These trees have needles instead of broad leaves, and their seeds grow inside protective, woody cones.

While temperate forests have deciduous trees which lose their leaves in winter, conifers never lose their needles. All such differences are created by numerous factors but temperature and precipitation are the most potent ones.

Therefore, temperature and precipitation are the two factors that create the difference between the temperate forest biome and the taiga biome.

#SPJ6

The temperate forest biome covers latitudes ranging approximately from the southern United States to southern Canada, while the taiga biome, also known as boreal forest, extends from the latitude of southern Canada to about 60 degrees north latitude. (see References 1, References 3) Thus, these two biomes are adjacent, which explains the many similarities between taiga and northern temperate forests. Both biomes have four distinct seasons, but the temperate forest climates cover a much wider range of temperatures and precipitation patterns. Taiga, in contrast, is reliably cold: most of the precipitation falls as snow, winters are severe and the growing season is short -- about 130 days compared to 140 to 200 days for temperate forests.

Which of the following statements is true?
Low pressure is usually means nice weather.
Air pressure is the same over the entire earth.
Worldwide winds are caused by rising air at the poles and sinking air at the equator.
Coastal breezes occur because water heats and cools more slowly than land.

Answers

Answer:

1- Option (b)

2- Option (b)

3- Option (a)

4- Option (c)

5- Option (a), (b) and (d)

6- Option (d)

Explanation:

The equatorial region receives more sunlight than the polar region, so the places near equator are warmer than the places at the polar region, including the 80 degrees N latitude.

Seasons are caused due to the tiltation of the earth and the relative position of earth with respect to the sun.

Due to the increasing temperature near the earth's surface, the warm air rises up in the atmosphere, being less denser and eventually sinks due to the lowering temperature.

When there occurs the temperature difference between two different regions, then wind is generated blowing from the region of higher pressure to the region of low pressure.

Clouds are formed when condensation process takes place and are a good albedo that reflects significant amount of sunlight back into the space. Clouds during condensation starts precipitating in the form of rainfall, snowfall and fog.

The difference in the temperature occurs because of the unequal heating of the land surface and the ocean. The land area gets heated up faster and more readily, in comparison to the ocean. So the sea breeze as well as the land breeze occurs. Sea breeze blows from the ocean surface to the land area, whereas land breeze blows from the land area towards the oceans.

1. The equator receives more direct sunlight because of the tilt of the earth

2. The earth's tilt resulting in uneven heating and cooling of the earth

3. Cools as it rises, and cool air then sinks

4. Form from condensation, Reflect sunlight back into space,  
Cause precipitation, you might want to do a little research on this one because technically greenhouse gases such as CO2 trap sunlight in the atmosphere so I think I got them all

5. And Coastal breezes one :)

A neuron is damaged in a way that doesn't allow its potassium ion gates to open. Which of the following would be directly affected?Receiving a stimulus
Repolarization
Reaching the threshold
Depolarization

Answers

Answer:

Option B - Repolarization

Explanation:

The change in the membrane potential to a negative value just after action potential is known as repolarization phase.

In cell, the depolarization event allows sodium channel to open. The cell after a short period of time allows the event of repolarization. The repolarizationevent occurs due to outflow of K+ ions. Thus, a damaged neuron will prevent the repolarization event.
