As the Colorado River carved the Grand Canyon, the land was split and the sides of the canyon grew farther apart. The population of Abert's squirrels in the area was separated by the widening canyon. Over time, scientists noted differences in the two separate populations, including the color of their fur, their size, and their foraging and feeding behaviors. What will happen to the groups of squirrels if they remain separated? How does this relate to genetic variation?

Answers

Answer 1

The canyon became a geographic barrier separating the forests and squirrels on each rim. One population of squirrels had become two separate populations that could no longer reproduce. According to National Geographic, this type of speciation is allopatric speciation.

When the diaphragm pushes upward, it increases the volume of the lungs, pushing air out.
When the diaphragm pulls downward, it increases the volume of the lungs, pushing air out.
When the diaphragm pulls downward, it decreases the volume of the lungs, pushing air out.

Answers

Answer: When, the diaphragm pushes upward, it decreases the volume of the lungs, pushing air out.

Explanation:

In exhalation, the diaphragm move upward and the chest wall muscles relax, causing the chest cavity to get smaller and push air out of the respiratory system through the nose or mouth.

When you breathe in, the diaphragm moves downward toward the abdomen, and the rib muscles pull the ribs upward and outward. This makes the chest cavity bigger and pulls air through the nose or mouth into the lungs.


When the diaphragm pushes upward, it decreases the volume of the lungs, pushing air out.

Read about the life cycle of an apple tree, and think about the role apples play in reproduction. Describe how apples help apple trees to reproduce. In other words, for an apple tree, what is the advantage of producing fruit as opposed to simply dropping its seeds on the ground? ⊄ pls help asap⊅

Answers

Answer:

Since the apple is food, animals eat the apple( seed and all) and take a poop in a different area.

Explanation:

Since apple seeds don’t digest easy, it has fresh, fertile ground to grow in.

The fruit or flower on any plant has a main role of reproduction, the apples contain seeds which is how the tree reproduces itself. An animal may obtain and consume the fruit carrying the seeds with it, spreading the multitude of seeds near and/or far. Planting more trees in the area, and not all cooped up in one spot, so they’re not fighting for resources.

In a paragraph (at least 6 sentences)- Introduce Water Striders and tell how they are able to walk on water by explaining the relationship between hydrogen bonding, cohesion, surface tension, and buoyancy.

Answers

Answer:

Water striders are able to walk on top of water due to a combination of several factors. Water striders use the high surface tension of water and long, hydrophobic legs to help them stay above water.

Water striders use this surface tension to their advantage through their highly adapted legs and distributed weight. The legs of a water strider are long and slender, allowing the weight of the water strider body to be distributed over a large surface area. The legs are strong, but have flexibility that allows the water striders to keep their weight evenly distributed and flow with the water movement. Hydrofuge hairs line the body surface of the water strider.

Your friend shows you the image below and claims that it shows the process of mitosis. why is he or she wrong? (3 reasons)

Answers

Answer:

1. The cell splits itself twice

2. 4 resulting sperm cells are made

3. Only half of the DNA is kept per cell

Explanation:

Mitosis only has one diving phase that occurs only on body cells, which makes it have 2 daughter cells. This, on the other hand, has 4 daughter cells. If you notice, after the third set of bubbles, the genome(DNA) is split among 4 cells.

The process shown above is actually meiosis. In mitosis the cell splits once, but the image shows it splitting twice. The end result of mitosis are body cells, but the result shown here are reproductive sperm cells. Finally, when the cells split into halves, only 1/2 of the DNA is put into the new cell unlike mitosis.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

fractured bone as the arm is swollen

Bruising can happen with almost any kind of tissue damage, including blood leaking from a broken bone. 1   The bigger the area of bruising, the more likely the damage is deep—possibly bone deep. Broken bones often swell. Swelling can be a sign that it's broken.

it will affect your skeletal system as you are unable to moth that part of your body and it also affect your muscular system as you can move your arm.

Broken bones are one of the most common orthopedic injuries. Fractures require treatment which may be as simple as rest, or as invasive as surgery. There are many factors that must be considered to determine the most appropriate treatment of a broken bone including: Some of the most frequently used fracture treatments are described here

that is most likely nerve damage as there is no bruising and it is numb so here nerve damage will be most logical.

muscular and nervous system as you are unable to feel or move your muscle.

muscle strain as it is when she overexercise her muscle which I sometimes experience at night.

it will most likely affect your muscular system

For immediate self-care of a sprain, try the R.I.C.E. approach — rest, ice, compression, elevation: Rest. Avoid activities that cause pain, swelling or discomfort. But don't avoid all physical activity.

Patient A has a fracture, if there is an abnormality in the x-ray (which only detects bones) there is something wrong the bone.

skeletal and muscular, the muscle is swollen and affected by the break in the skeletal system.

A treatment would be icing the forearm, and applying a cast.

Patient 2 has nerve damage
The nervous system is affected by the damage.
A treatment would be managing blood sugar levels because the patient has type 2 diabetes. Nerve pain medication would block pain by the damaged nerves.

Patient C has a muscle sprain because when she ran, she might have stepped incorrectly, straining the muscle.
The muscular system is affected by this.
Cold compressions, keeping the calf elevated and rest.

Plant pollen travels from the stamen to the stigma. Which step comes next in the pollination process?

Answers

Answer:

the next step would be germination.

Explanation:

Step 1: Pollination

In general, male gametes are contained in pollen, which is carried by wind, water, or wildlife (both insects and animals) to reach female gametes. The pollen is deposited on a plant's stigma, which is part of the pistil (the elongated part of a flower extending from the ovary). This process is called pollination.

Step 2: Germination

Within a few minutes, pollen tubes begin growing, or germinating, toward the egg cell. These tubes will provide a path for the sperm carried in the pollen to reach the egg.

Step 3: Penetration of the Ovule

The pollen tubes penetrate the ovule, which contains the female gametes.

Step 4: Fertilization

Sperm travel down the pollen tubes and fertilize an egg. Most angiosperms undergo double fertilization, where both an egg and the polar nuclei in the embryonic sac are fertilized.

Answer:

When a pollen grain moves from the anther (male part) of a flower to the stigma (female part), pollination happens. This is the first step in a process that produces seeds, fruits, and the next generation of plants. The stalk holds the anther and attaches it to the flower. The enlarged basal portion of the pistil where ovules are produced.

Explanation:

When pollen from a plant's stamen is transferred to that same plant's stigma, it is called self-pollination. When pollen from a plant's stamen is transferred to a different plant's stigma, it is called cross-pollination. Cross-pollination produces stronger plants.

Your circulatory system is made up of several parts, including your:

Heart. This muscular organ works to pump blood throughout your body via an intricate network of blood vessels.
Arteries. These thick-walled blood vessels carry oxygenated blood away from your heart.
Veins. These blood vessels carry deoxygenated blood back toward your heart.
Capillaries. These tiny blood vessels facilitate the exchange of oxygen, nutrients, and waste between your circulatory system and your organs and tissues.
Interesting facts about the circulatory system
Your heart pumps about 5 liters of blood per minuteTrusted Source, but it’s only about the size of your fistTrusted Source.
It’s estimated that in a 70-year period, your heart will beat over 2.5 billion timesTrusted Source.
In most adult humans, a normal resting heart rate is between 60 to 100 beats per minuteTrusted Source.
The total length of all of the blood vessels in your body is about 60,000 miles.
Capillaries are your most numerous blood vessels and also the smallest. Red blood cells often have to move through the capillaries in single-file.
Your blood pressure changes throughout the day. It’s lowest when you’re asleep, and it peaks in the middle of the afternoon.
How does it work?
Your circulatory system is vital to your survival. Its function is to distribute blood and other nutrients to all your body’s organs and tissues.

The small blood vessels called capillaries facilitate the exchange of oxygen and nutrients between your blood and the cells in your body. Carbon dioxide and other waste products, which are expelled from your body, are also exchanged via your capillaries. These tiny capillaries are spread throughout your body so that they can reach every cell.

Let’s follow the blood on a simple loop through the circulatory system to see how it works:

Oxygen-depleted blood returns to your heart (the right side) via the veins.
Your heart pumps this blood to the lungs. In the lungs, the blood gets rid of carbon dioxide and picks up fresh oxygen.
Newly oxygenated blood returns to the other side of the heart (the left side), where it’s then pumped into the arteries.
Eventually, the blood enters the capillaries. Here, it releases oxygen and nutrients to your body’s organs and tissues. It then picks up carbon dioxide and other waste products.
The oxygen-depleted blood returns to the heart through the veins, and the cycle begins all over again.
The circulatory system can also respond to various stimuli to regulate the flow of blood. Examples of these stimuli include changes in:

blood volume
hormones
electrolytes
Circulatory system conditions
Below, we’ll explore some of the most common conditions that can affect the health of your circulatory system.

Atherosclerosis

Atherosclerosis is when plaque builds up along the walls of your arteries. Risk factors that can contribute to plaque buildup include:

high blood pressure
high cholesterol
tobacco use
diabetes
an unhealthy diet
low levels of physical activity
being overweight or obese
Atherosclerosis can gradually make the arteries narrower, affecting the amount of blood that can flow through them. Because of this, organs and tissues may not get enough oxygen.

When atherosclerosis affects the arteries of your heart, it’s called coronary artery disease. Other arteries in your body can also be affected as well. This is called peripheral artery disease, which affects how well blood can flow to your legs, feet, arms, and hands.

In some cases, an artery may become completely blocked by plaque or a blood clot. When this happens, a heart attack or stroke can occur.

High blood pressure

Your blood pressure is the force that your blood exerts on the walls of your arteries as your heart pumps. High blood pressure can eventually damage your heart and blood vessels, as well as other organs like your brain, kidneys, and eyes.

Angina

Angina is chest pain that occurs when your heart isn’t getting enough oxygen. It’s often caused by coronary artery disease, which makes the arteries supplying the heart narrower due to plaque buildup.

Arrhythmia

An arrhythmia is an abnormal heart rhythm. When you have an arrhythmia, your heart may be beating too fast (tachycardia), too slowly (bradycardia), or irregularly. It happens due to changes in the heart or its electrical signals.

Varicose veins

Your veins contain valves that help keep oxygen-depleted blood flowing toward your heart. When these valves fail, blood collects in the veins, which can cause them to bulge and become swollen or painful.

Varicose veins most often appear on the lower legs.
A antomy is the heart the veins arteries
Function is a transport blood and nutrients to parts of the body
Blood flow control by heart , veins and areteries
