What do coral reefs and estuaries have in common?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: hewo, there! your answer is below

stuaries are areas of water and shoreline where rivers meet the ocean or another large body of water, such as one of the Great Lakes. Organisms that live in estuaries must be adapted to these dynamic environments, where there are variations in water chemistry including salinity, as well as physical changes like the rise and fall of tides. Despite these challenges, estuaries are also very productive ecosystems. They receive nutrients from both bodies of water and can support a variety of life. Because of their access to food, water, and shipping routes, people often live near estuaries and can impact the health of the ecosystem.

Explanation: Here's some Info Below <3

shallow water, reef-building corals have a symbiotic relationship with photosynthetic algae called zooxanthellae, which live in their tissues. The coral provides a protected environment and the compounds zooxanthellae need for photosynthesis. In return, the algae produce carbohydrates that the coral uses for food, as well as oxygen. The algae also help the coral remove waste. Since both partners benefit from association, this type of symbiosis is called mutualism.

Deep-sea corals live in much deeper or colder oceanic waters and lack zooxanthellae. Unlike their shallow water relatives, which rely heavily on photosynthesis to produce food, deep sea corals take in plankton and organic matter for much of their energy needs.

Explain E.O. Wilson's theory of Island Biogeography as it applies to environments other than islands physically
surrounded by water.

Answers

Answer:

The theory of E.O. Wilson's theory of Island Biogeography was originally developed as island biogeography, to explain species richness of actual islands, surrounded by water.

It proposes that the number of species found in an undisturbed environment is determined by immigration and emigration. According to him, the species richness will be the same if this island will have an equal number of the immigration and extinction or emigration of species.

Answer:

1. Hypothalamus

2. Optic chiasma

3. Corpora quadrigemina

4. Cerebellum

5. Thalamus

6. Medulla oblangata

7. Corpus Collosum

8. Fornix

9. Cerebral aqueduct

10. Midbrain

Explanation:

The hypothalamus is a small central region of the brain that regulates body temperature by responding to both internal and external stimuli and also produces the antidiuretic hormone (ADH) in order to trigger the reabsorption of water in the kidneys. The optic chiasma is a special sensory structure located along the visual pathway, directly in front of the hypothalamus, which is crucial to vision. The corpora quadrigemina, also known as quadruple bodies, are reflex centers located in the mesencephalon (midbrain) that regulate the position of the head and eyes in response to somatic stimuli.  The cerebellum is a part of the brain located behind the top part of the brain stem which is involved in motor movement regulation and balance control. The thalamus (massa intermedia) is a paired gray matter structure found near the center of the brain that plays vital roles associated with sensory and motor functions of the brain. The medulla oblangata (medulla) is a structure located at the base of the brain involved in the regulation of sensory, motor, and mental functions (e.g., breathing, pain modulation, etc). The corpus callosum (the callosal commissure) is a bundle of nerve fibers that connects the two hemispheres of the brain. The fornix (agenesis of the corpus callosum) is a large interhemispheric commissure that connects neurons in the right and left hemispheres. The cerebral aqueduct (aqueduct of Sylvius) is a narrow channel that connects the third and fourth ventricles, thus allowing the cerebrospinal fluid to flow between the ventricles. Finally, the midbrain o 'mesencephalon' is a small region located in between the forebrain and hindbrain, which is involved in auditory and visual processing, eye movement and coordination.

What would most likely happen if there were no condensation stage in the water cycle​

Answers

Answer:

No precipitation.

Explanation:

if there were no condensation stage in the water cycle​ then there will be no precipitation and as a result the water cycle will stop. Condensation is the change of water from its gaseous state or water vapor into liquid water. This condensation process occurs in the upper atmosphere where the temperature is lower as compared to the earth surface so the water vapors turn into liquid state and will fall from the sky in the form of rainfall and snowfall so we can say that no condensation will leads to no precipitation.

A researcher performs an experiment to test a hypothesis that involves the nutrients niacin and retinol. She feeds one group of laboratory rats a daily diet of precisely 125.6 units of niacin and 5,400 units of retinol. She uses two types of commercial pellet food. Food A contains 0.86 units of niacin and 30 units of retinol per gram. Food B contains 0.66 units of niacin and 40 units of retinol per gram. How many grams of each food does she feed this group of rats each day

Answers

Answer:

- 100 grams of food A (x)

- 60 grams of food B (y)

Explanation:

According to this question, the group of laboratory rats are being fed a daily diet of:

- 125.6 units of niacin and 5,400 units of retinol

Let x represent the number of grams needed for food A.

Let y represent the number of grams needed for food B.

This means that:

Food A: Niacin = 0.86x, Retinol = 30x

Food B: Niacin = 0.66y, Retinol = 40y

Since there are 125.6 units of niacin fed to the rats in total, then;

0.86x (A) + 0.66y (B) = 125.6

Since there are 5400 units of retinol fed to the rats in total, then;

30x (A) + 40y (B) = 5400

Solving these two equations simultaneously using elimination method:

0.86x (A) + 0.66y (B) = 125.6 ........(eqn 1)

30x (A) + 40y (B) = 5400 ............ (eqn 2)

Multiply eqn 1 by 30 and eqn 2 by 0.86

30 × 0.86x + 0.66y = 125.6

0.86 × 30x + 40y = 5400

25.8x + 19.8y = 3768 ............ (eqn 3)

25.8x + 34.4y = 4644 ........... (eqn 4)

Subtract eqn 3 from eqn 4

14.6y = 876

Divide both sides by 14.6

y = 876/14.6

y = 60

Substitute value for y (60) into eqn 2

30x + 40y = 5400

30x + 40(60) = 5400

30x + 2400 = 5400

30x = 5400 - 2400

30x = 3000

x = 3000/30

x = 100

Therefore, she feeds the group of rats 100grams of food A (x) and 60 grams of food B (y).
