why do vultures wait for there prey

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A vulture attacks weak prey. They hunt by sight, so they often "watch over" the prey until it is ready, by their standards. ... Sometimes vultures wait for a larger feeder to attack the meat first, so that the meat is perfect for eating.

Answer 2

Answer:

Vultures often wait for decay to set in because it gives them easy access to dead animals with tough skins

In an early experiment, it was found that a mouse in a sealed glass jar soon died, but if a plant was included in the jar, the mouse lived much longer. Explain theses results.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - mouse produces carbon dioxide which is used by the plants for photosynthesis that in turn produces oxygen that is used for cellular respiration.

Explanation:

A mouse can not live in a sealed container or jar for a long time whereas with a plant in a closed and sealed jar mouse can live longer. This is due to the fact that in absence of the plant there is no oxygen for the mouse to get perform cellular respiration.

in a jar with a plant, the mouse lives longer because the plant still produces oxygen by the process of photosynthesis which is used by the mouse for cellular respiration and produces carbon dioxide that is taken by the plant.

1.1 Cell division is found to occur in:
A growth
B reproduction
С
cancer
D all options.

Answers

Answer:

Cell division is found to occur in both groth and reproduction.The answer is D

Answer:

D all options.

Explanation:

Cancer

Cancer is unchecked cell growth. Mutations in genes can cause cancer by accelerating cell division rates or inhibiting normal controls on the system, such as cell cycle arrest or programmed cell death.

Reproduction

Cell division usually occurs as part of a larger cell cycle. Both of these cell division cycles are used in the process of sexual reproduction at some point in their life cycle.

Growth

In unicellular organisms, cell division is the means of reproduction; in multicellular organisms, it is the means of tissue growth and maintenance. Most tissues of the body grow by increasing their cell number, but this growth is highly regulated to maintain a balance between different tissues

The peppered moth provides a well-known example of natural selection. The light-colored form of the moth was predominant in England before the Industrial Revolution. In the mid-nineteenth century, a dark-colored form appeared. The difference is produced by a dominant allele of one gene. By about 1900, approximately 90% of the moths around industrial areas were dark colored, whereas light-colored moths were still abundant elsewhere. Apparently, birds could really find the light morhs against the soot-darkened background in industrial areas and, therefore, were eating more light moths. Recently, use of cleaner fuels has greatly reduced soot in the landscape, and the dark-colored moths have been disappearing.

1.What forces are causing evolutionary change in these populations?
2. Should the two forma be considered separate species?
3. How would you determine if these are separate species?
4. Give a prediction for what future generations of moths will look like and explain why.

Answers

Answer:

a) Natural selection

b) Different

c) Different genotypes

d) Evolution of dark colored moth species from the light colored moth species

Explanation:

a) The pressure of selection due to the changing color of bark of tree because of air pollution caused by industries leads to natural selection in a way that dark colored moth are emerging

b) Yes the two forms of moths are two different species.

c) The genotype of the two species is different

d) All the moths will be of dark color in order to save themselves from predation. This will lead to evolution of dark colored moth species from the light colored moth species and hence will lead to extinction of light colored moth

how can a predator prey relationship cause coevolution

Answers

Answer:

Un depredador y sus presas coevolucionan, el depredador se vuelve más eficiente en perseguir y matar a sus presas y las presas dearrollan nuevas defensas y formas de escape. La coevolución impone presiones selectivas. Éstas a su vez llevan a una carrera armamental de adaptaciones mutuas progresivas

Explanation:

Explanation:

Coevolution

Coevolution is a cyclic process in which the adaptations of one organism in an ecosystem drive the adaptations of another organism. These adaptations then cause the first organism to adapt to keep up (Brockhurst & Koskella, 2013). Coevolution is very environmentally specific so you will not see it develop between generalist species (Abrams, 2006; Aslan, et. al, 2013; Becklin, 2008; Chu, 1985) though it may develop communally. Similarly, coevolution does not account for wide-scale adaptions among groups of organisms better attributed to environmental shifts such as habitat destruction and climate change (Chu, 1985).

(5) If the coral dies, the reef becomes bare rock and sand no longer full of life.

Answers

Answer:

(5) If the coral dies, the reef becomes bare rock and sand no longer full of life.

Explanation:

The atmosphere is a part of coral reef because a large population of organisms lives in these coral reefs. It provides habitat to the biosphere of the  ocean as well as oxygen to the marine organisms. It can greatly affected with the increase concentration of carbondioxide due to acidification of water that kills the algae that is lives on the surface of these coral reef. So if these algae die due to lowering of pH, a large portion of marine organisms also removed from the environment due to unavailability of suitable environmental conditions.

Explanation:

There is a bug, called a Water Strider, that use surface tension to ‘walk on water.’

Answer: it's A

Explanation:

Polar bears live in the tundra. They obtain their energy almost exclusively from eating other animals, although they do eat some vegetation. Black bears that live in temperate forests tend to be more omnivorous, eating a wide variety of plants and animals for energy.

An adaptation is a behavior or an anatomical structure that can help an organism survive in its environment. Why are diet choices important adaptations for these animals’ survival in their biomes? Based on the images, what other adaptations do these animals display?

Answers

Answer:

In the tundra, vegetation is rare, so polar bears had to adapt to eat a heavily animal-based diet. In the temperate forest region, a wider variety of plants is available, so black bears can eat a more omnivorous diet. The bears’ colors are adaptations. The polar bear blends in with the snowy background, and the black bear blends in with the trees of the temperate background. The bears’ coloring could help them hunt for prey.
