Why do large islands usually have more species than smaller islands?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Reason Why

Explanation: A bigger target is easier to hit than a small one, and a big island is more likely to have species land on it by chance than a small one is. Larger islands have more space than smaller islands, so there are likely to be more resources available for species to use. The opposite is true for smaller islands.

When a human egg is fertilized by a sperm, the resulting zygote begins the process of cell division that eventually results in an organism with trillions of cells. The image shows a mass of human cells at the eight-cell stage, shortly after fertilization.

Answers

Answer:

hope this helps not sure tho

Explanation:

Fertilization is the union of a male and a female gamete that gives rise to a zygote that is the first cell of the organism. Fertilization occurs in the sexually reproducing organisms. After fertilization , the zygote undergoes continuous division and Gives rise to a mass of cell that later on differentiate into cells that assume specialized function, each group of specialized cell then gives rise to organ system of the organism.

If fertilization started in woman , mensuration will occur or not??? explain​

Answers

Answer:

Fertilisation happens if the egg cell meets and joins with a sperm cell in the oviduct. The fertilised egg attaches to the lining of the uterus. The woman becomes pregnant, the lining of the uterus does not break down and menstruation does not happen.

analyze potential impacts of oceans on human populations as the result of climate change in the current century.

Answers

Answer:

The result of climate change is ocean levels increasing because of the increase in temperature. Ice is melting due to climate change and this is causing the ocean levels to rise rapidly. If the ocean levels rise above land, some villages/towns/cities could flood. As a result houses of which people live in and other structures may be destroyed. Water sources may also be contaminated, making the water unsafe for humans to consume.

In dolphins, to have spots on the skin is a recessive trait. One spotted dolphin and one solid gray dolphin have a baby spotted dolphin. Go through the following steps to figure out the genotype of the parent dolphins.

1) what is the genotype of the spotted (recessive) parent?

Answers

Answer:

the spotted parent has the genotype ss

Explanation:

we will use s as the letter when describing the spotted trait.

since spotted is recessive, that parents have to have two little s to have the trait. Since the child also has that, we know that they will have the genotype ss.  the child would have to get a little s from both parents, so the solid parent would have Ss, showing as solid, but still having the gene for spots.

The stage of mitosis where the chromosomes line up

Answers

Answer:

Metaphase

Explanation:

Chromosomes line up at the metaphase plate, under strain from the mitotic shaft. The two sister chromatids of every chromosome are caught by microtubules from inverse shaft posts. In metaphase, the shaft has caught every one of the chromosomes and arranged them at the center of the cell, prepared to separate.

Answer:

It is metaphase.

Explanation:

In metaphase (a), the microtubules of the spindle (white) have attached and the chromosomes have lined up on the metaphase plate. During anaphase (b), the sister chromatids are pulled apart and move toward opposite poles of the cell.

Answers

Answer:

Domain Eukarya

Explanation:

It sort of looks like a seahorse. And if it happens to be a seahorse, it would belong to the domian eukarya because animals are made of animal cells, and a eukaryotic cell can be either animal cell or plant cell. So it only makes sense for it to belong to domain eukarya (only if it is animal/plant).
