How does an increase in the annual melt season in Antarctica have a global effect? a. It causes an increase in heat related illness and death. b. It causes the global concentration of carbon dioxide to decrease. c. The water in the melting glaciers can cause sea levels to rise. d. None of the above is true.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The correct answer is option "C"

The water in the melting glaciers can cause sea levels to rise.

The increase in annual melt season indicates a prolonged melting (hot)  season which is primarily due to the impact of global warming. Global warming is increasing the highest temperature mark in the hot seasons on the planet which is adversely affecting the polar regions of earth. The ice in these Polar Regions has started melting. This ice when converted into liquid form flows through regions to reach sea and oceans and thus causes the rising of sea level

Answer 2
Answer:  c. The water in the melting glaciers can cause sea levels to rise.

Which mechanism of genetic variation results from the exchange of gene segments between non-sister chromatids? Select one of the options below as your answer: A. Crossing over
B. Independent assortment
C. Random fertilization

Answers

A) Crossing over is the mechanism of genetic variation that results from the exchange of gene segments between non-sister chomatids.
Crossing over occurs between prophase 1 and metaphase 1 and is the process where homologous chromosomes pair up with each other and exchange different segments of their genetic material to form recombinant chromosomes. It can also happen during mitotic division, which may result in loss of heterozygosity.

Energy is released to be used by a cell when a phosphate group is removed from adp to form atp added to adp to form atp removed from atp to form adp added to atp to form adp

Answers

Answer:

Removed from atp to form adp

Explanation:

ATP (or adenosine triphosphate) is a molecule capable of storing small amounts of energy (from food breakdown) in its chemical bonds.

When cells need energy to perform various metabolic functions, the ATP molecule breaks down (by hydrolysis).

Then, the bond between the second and third phosphate breaks, releasing energy, leaving one ADP (adenosine diphosphate) moleculeand a free phosphate group.

A phosphate group is removed from atp to form adp.

A population of deer is separated by an emerging volcano. The two populations come back into contact 200 years later, but are incapable of breeding. Which of the following best describes the process that occurred?A)adaptation
B)speciation
C)convergent selection
D)stabilizing selection

Answers

Answer:

B)speciation

Explanation:

Speciation is the term used to refer to the division of a lineage that produces two or more different species. In a nutshell, we can say that this is the process of the emergence of a new species, and the crucial event for this to happen is reproductive isolation. This reproductive isolation impedes the gene flow, therefore, obeying the biological concept of species, we say that a new species has emerged.

An example of speciation is shown in the question above, where a volcano separated two species and left them in reproductive isolation. The result of this was that two populations became so different from one another that they became unable to breed, creating new species.
