Answer:
In order to form delta weathering, erosion and deposition work together. The weathering breaks down the rocks by wind, water or frost. Erosion help to transport the broken particles and the deposition occurs in order to finally settle the eroded materials to a new location that results in the formation of a delta.
A delta is a fan-shaped area of land that is formed a deposition of sediments at the mouth of the river, where it empties into an ocean.
B. the biosphere
C. Earth
D. organisms
B. Eukaryotic species experience a greater rate of mutations within their populations.
C. Mutations increase the genetic diversity in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
D. Sexually reproducing eukaryotes evolve faster than species that reproduce asexually.
Answer:
C. Mutations increase the genetic diversity in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
Explanation:
It is a well-established fact that mutations increase the genetic diversity in living organisms (especially if they are positive mutations). The positive and faster mutations will help the organism to develop better traits for survival in the changing environments.
The other options are incorrect because of the following reasons:
A. Eukaryotes don't do gene transfer via conjugation.
B. Eukaryotic species don't experience a greater rate of mutations as compared to the prokaryotes. Prokaryotes have a faster mutation rate. This is the reason that microbes can adapt to changing environments faster than humans or other multicellular organisms.
D. As mentioned above, sexually reproducing eukaryotic species evolves slower than the asexually reproducing species. For example, evolution in bacteria (e.g. drug resistance) is faster than any organism belonging to eukaryotic lineage.
Answer:
C . Mutations increase the genetic diversity in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
Explanation:
I took the test and that was the correct anwser.
True. N.L Bowen hypothesized that minerals formed in two different ways. The first is a gradual, continuous fashion with minerals that have very similar chemical components. The second is through a sudden, discontinuous change in the mineral type.
