how does finding fossils in mining quarries create bias in the fossil records?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There are several reasons there is a bias in the fossil record, including the following: Hardbody parts fossilize better than soft-bodied parts. Fragile organisms are less likely to be preserved and fossilized. Fossils in remote areas are less like to be found compared to fossils in easily accessible regions.

The growth potential of alternative agricultural practices such as the growing of amaranth grain and the raising of deer, elk, emus, and buffalo for meat is limited because Group of answer choices it is impossible to domesticate new plants and animals the dietary laws in the United States are restrictive the animals and grain are difficult to raise the growers have not established an integrated commodity chain the high protein content of these meats and grains is thought to be unhealthy

Answers

Answer:

The growers have not established an integrated commodity chain

Explanation:

Integration of commodity chain includes merging of different alternative practices of agriculture for the overall growth of the society. It may raising cattle like sheep, lambs, cow or horses, etc. or raising deer, buffalo, emus and elk and also doing various plantation of crops such as wheat, barley, rice, coffee, cotton, etc.

But the farmers have not been able to established the integrated commodity chain because of which the growth potential of the alternative agricultural practices like raising emus or buffalos or growing amaranth grains is limited.

Gregor Mendel studied the inheritance pattern of several characteristics in pea plants. He observed that tall (T) plants were dominant to short (t) plants. If a heterozygous tall plant is crossed with a short plant, what percentage of the offspring will be short?

Answers

Answer:

Below

Explanation:

I used a punnett square to figure this out!

If you were to cross a heterozygous tall plant (Tt) with a short plant (tt), the possible resulting genotypes of the offspring would be:

50% chance of the offspring being heterozygous dominant (Tt)

50% chance of the offspring being short (tt)

Which statement describes the best evidence that two species share a recent common ancestor? NO LINKS NO NINKS
A) The species are about the same size.
B) The species eat the same type of food.
C) The species live in the same ecosystem.
D) The species have similar DNA sequences.

Answers

D.

Traits of two different organisms can be similar due to convergent evolution, that is, natural selection which favors the evolution of similar traits in species. The result of convergent evolution are analogous traits. These are traits which are similar but do not originate from a common ancestral trait. These can often be mistaken as homologous traits, which are traits that do originate from a common ancestor.

The take away here is that similarity of traits does not necessarily mean that two organisms shared a common ancestor.

However, by looking at the DNA sequences of the organisms we can determine if they truly shared a recent common ancestor or not.

Q.3. Describe the structure of the internal and middle ear.

Answers

Answer:

The inner ear has two openings into the middle ear, both covered by membranes

Explanation:

The oval window lies between the middle ear and the vestibule, whilst the round window separates the middle ear from the scala tympani (part of the cochlear duct)

The internal ear

➥ The inner ear (also called the labyrinth) contains 2 main structures — the cochlea, which is involved in hearing, and the vestibular system (consisting of the 3 semicircular canals, saccule and utricle), which is responsible for maintaining balance.

➥ The cochlea is filled with fluid and contains the organ of Corti — a structure that contains thousands of specialised sensory hair cells with projections called cilia. The vibrations transmitted from the middle ear cause tiny waves to form in the inner ear fluid, which make the cilia vibrate.

➥ The hair cells then convert these vibrations into nerve impulses, or signals, which are sent via the auditory nerve to the brain, where they are interpreted as sound. The round window (fenestra cochlea) is a membrane that connects the cochlea with the middle ear. It helps dampen the vibrations in the cochlea.

➥ The semicircular canals also contain fluid and hair cells, but these hair cells are responsible for detecting movement rather than sound. When you move your head, the fluid within the semicircular canals (which sit at right angles to each other) also moves. This fluid motion is detected by the hair cells, which then send nerve impulses about the position of your head and body to the brain to allow you to maintain your balance.

➥ The utricle and saccule work in a similar way to the semicircular canals, allowing you to sense your body’s position relative to gravity and make postural adjustments as required.

The middle ear

➥ The middle ear is an air-filled space that contains 3 tiny bones (known as ossicles), called the malleus (hammer), incus and stapes (stirrup). Sound waves that reach the tympanic membrane cause it to vibrate.

➥ This vibration is then transmitted to the ossicles, which amplify the sound and pass on the vibration to the oval window (a thin membrane between the middle and inner ear). The Eustachian tube is a narrow tube that connects your middle ear to the back of your nose and throat (known as the nasopharynx). Its function is to allow air into the middle ear as well as drain mucus from the middle ear into the nasopharynx.

➥ When you swallow, your Eustachian tube opens up to allow air into the middle ear, so that the air pressure on either side of the tympanic membrane is the same. In situations when there is a sudden change in air pressure (e.g. during take-off and landing when travelling on a plane), the pressure in the middle ear is not the same as the outside air pressure.

➥ This can make your eardrum bulge or retract and less able to transmit vibrations, causing temporary hearing problems. By swallowing or ‘popping’ your ears, you can equalise the pressure.

below?

Answers

Answer:

Predation

Explanation:

The bird is attacking the frog.

The type of relationship that exists between the two creatures is predation. So, the correct option is D.

What is Predation?

Predation is a biological relationship that occurs when one creature, the predator, kills and consumes another organism, the prey. Predation is a widespread ecological occurrence that happens in a wide range of habitats and ecosystems, so it is an important strategy for managing prey species numbers.

Sharp teeth, claws, or beaks, powerful jaws, stealth movements, and camouflage are among the adaptations that predators use to capture and kill their prey. To discourage or mislead predators, prey species have evolved a variety of protective adaptations such as armor, spines, and contaminants, as well as behaviours like as hiding, running, or forming groups.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Six months earlier Colleen graduated from a state university with a masters degree in accounting. Colleen graduated with honors and was one of the youngest in her class. Unlike most of the intellectuals she had studied with throughout her career, Colleen was extremely social and had great communication skills. After graduation she took a job with a welI-known regional accounting firm. The firm specialized in assisting companies with their technology problems. Colleen knew that the connections and knowledge she would gain working for the firm would be beneficial throughout her career. Now, six months after graduation, she has a full-time job offer with one of the firms strongest clients.Within a few days on her new job, Colleen adapted to her new environment. Colleen and two other recent graduates were running the entire accounting department. However, it wasnt long until Colleen began to notice that something wasnt right. After a few weeks, Colleen realized that the firms executives were participating in illegal transactions. The company executives were importing expensive technological products from China and selling them under the table to contacts unknown to Colleen. Once the firm received the products at the shipping dock, the executives "personal employees" marked the products and took them to a separate location. The entire operation was done with little paperwork. The money received from the special products received special attention. Colleen was told to report this inflow of cash in an account called "Personal Executive Consulting Services." This categorization allowed the executives to personally use the money at their convenience.Earlier in the textbook we discussed the net worth method.
