One of the pieces of evidence for evolution that Charles Darwin collected on his travels aboard the HMS Beagle was the observation of fossils of extinct animals and similar, but noticeably different species. Giant ground sloth fossils were very similar in shape to the bones of sloths that inhabited the regions of South America he was exploring. The main difference was the size, as the ground sloth fossils were significantly larger that the bones of the sloths he captured alive. What was a conclusion that Darwin was able to arrive to based on this piece of evidence
Answer: Darwin was able to arrive at a conclusion that there was no relationship between the fossils of the ground sloth and the bones of the captured sloths that currently reside in South America.
Explanation:
Evolution is defined as the sum total of adaptive changes that have taken place over a very long period of time. It leads to the development of new species from earlier ones. Evolution is an extremely slow process. It is difficult to obtain direct evidence of evolution in action. However, scientist such as Darwin, have gathered a great deal of indirect evidence that supports the theory of evolution. These evidence comes from many sources including:
--> fossils records
--> biochemical similarities
--> molecular records
--> Comparative anatomy and
--> embryology.
FOSSILS RECORDS shows the existence of species that are now in extinct which lived on Earth during different periods of the planet's history. They provide evidence that organisms from the past are not the same as those found today due to adaptive changes that has occurred over a long period of time on the organism in order to survive in its environment.
There was no relationship between the sloths because of the difference in BONE MASS.
if you were facing a rainbow where would your shadow be
Answer:
Usually the radius of the arc is equal to about one-fourth of the visible sky, or 42 degrees, to the red. When there are showers nearby, simply look in the part of the sky opposite the sun at a 42-degree angle from your shadow; if there is a rainbow, that is where it will be.

Forensic biologists are testing a DNA sample that has no match found in the system using SNP analysis. What helpful information could the biologists get from the SNP?
The sample was taken from someone with brown hair and blue eyes.
The sample was taken from an animal.
The sample was taken from an elderly person.
The sample was contaminated during collection.
Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
The SNP analysis is useful in determining response of an individual towards a drug and its environmental susceptibility. Thus, the SNP analysis in this case will give an indication of whether the sample was contaminated or not.
Hence, option D is correct

If 65,000 kcal are
available in the
producers trophic
level, how much
energy is available
to the secondary
consumers?
Answer:
13000 would be avalable because 10% is taken every time it is eaten so 65,000 with 10% taken out twice (20% of 65,000) is only 13,000 kcal available to the secondary consumers.
Food chains from four different habitats are shown below.
Ocean: seaweed → sea urchin → squid → shark
Wetland: mosquito → fish → turtle → bacteria
Rainforest: peacock flower → monkey → jaguar → mushroom
Grassland: grass → mouse → hawk → vulture
Which food chain correctly represents a pattern of energy transfer from producer to consumers to decomposer?
Answer:
Is A or C
Explanation:
C makes more sense.
The food chain that correctly represents a pattern of energy transfer from producer to consumers to decomposer is:
Wetland: mosquito → fish → turtle → bacteria
In this food chain, the mosquito is the primary consumer that feeds on the producer (plant) - the energy from the plant is transferred to the mosquito. Hence option B is correct.
What is Food Chain?A food chain is a sequence of organisms in an ecosystem in which each organism feeds on the one before it and is, in turn, preyed upon by the organism after it.
The food chain represents the flow of energy and nutrients through an ecosystem, with producers at the bottom and apex predators at the top. The primary producers in a food chain are typically plants and algae that use sunlight to produce energy-rich organic compounds through the process of photosynthesis.
The fish is the secondary consumer that feeds on the mosquito, transferring the energy to the fish. The turtle is the tertiary consumer that feeds on the fish, transferring the energy to the turtle.
Finally, the bacteria act as decomposers that break down the dead organic matter from the turtle and other organisms, releasing the energy back to the environment in the form of nutrients.
Hence option B is correct.

Which option describes the question Dave should consider in the following scenario?
Dave's mare has just given birth to a healthy colt, but he is surprised that the colt was born tan when the mother is
black
What color are the colt's eyes?
What nutritional supplements were given?
What other maternal traits were inherited?
What color is the colt's father?
The color of the colt's coat is determined by the genes it inherited from its parents is “What color is the colt's father?”, option D is correct.
Coat color in horses is a complex trait that involves several genes. The most well-known coat colors are black, bay, and chestnut. However, there are many variations and combinations of these colors, such as the tan color observed in this colt.
The color of the eyes is not related to the coat color and is determined by a different set of genes. Nutritional supplements may play a role in the overall health and development of the colt, but they are not likely to affect its coat color. Maternal traits, such as temperament and size, are also inherited, but they are not related to the coat color either, option D is correct.

7) Acceleration is 2 Law
8) Should be acceleration too, 2 Law
Hope This Helps!

Explanation:
6:
Answer: Newton's first law of motion,
Explanation: Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist a change it its motion. Describe how inertia affects motion. If an object is already at rest, inertia will keep it at rest. If the object is already moving, inertia will keep it moving.
7:
Answer: The second law
Explanation: The second law shows that if you exert the same force on two objects of different mass, you will get different accelerations (changes in motion). The effect (acceleration) on the smaller mass will be greater (more noticeable).
8.
Answer: Newton's Second Law
Explanation: The second law of motion explains the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration. The law states that the acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the amount of force applied. Newton's second law of motion is also called the law of force and acceleration.

Answer:
Males are more likely to have hypophosphatemia.
Explanation:
In females, a mutation would have to happen in both copies of the genes to cause the disorder. It is rare having females with 2 altered copies of this gene. Males are X-linked by recessive disorders much more frequently then females.
