How might volcanic eruptions change the flow of energy on earth?

Answers

Answer:

It causes global warming due to emission of carbondioxide gas.

Explanation:

Volcanic eruptions change the flow of energy on earth by emitting gases such as carbondioxide and sulfur dioxide gases. Volcanic gases like sulfur dioxide is responsible for global cooling by reflecting solar radiation back to the space, while on the other hand, carbon dioxide emitted from volcanoes, has the ability to promote global warming by blocking solar radiation. If the amount of carbondioxide gas is higher as compared to sulfur dioxide gas so global warming occurs.

List and explain the 3 paths natural selection can take.

Answers

Answer:

1. Stabilizing Selection  

2. Directional Selection  

3. Disruptive Selection  

Explanation:

Stabilizing Selection  

This type of natural selection occurs when there are selective pressures working against two extremes of a trait and therefore the intermediate or “middle” trait is selected for. If we look at a distribution of traits in the population, it is noticeable that a standard distribution is followed:

Example:  For a plant, the plants that are very tall are exposed to more wind and are at risk of being blown over. The plants that are very short fail to get enough sunlight to prosper. Therefore, the plants that are a middle height between the two get both enough sunlight and protection from the wind.

Directional Selection  

This type of natural selection occurs when selective pressures are working in favour of one extreme of a trait. Therefore when looking at a distribution of traits in a population, a graph tends to lean more to one side:

Example: Giraffes with the longest necks are able to reach more leaves to each. Selective pressures will work in the advantage of the longer neck giraffes and therefore the distribution of the trait within the population will shift towards the longer neck trait.

Disruptive Selection  

This type of natural selection occurs when selective pressures are working in favour of the two extremes and against the intermediate trait. This type of selection is not as common. When looking at a trait distribution, there are two higher peaks on both ends with a minimum in the middle as such:

Example: An area that has black, white and grey bunnies contains both black and white rocks. Both the traits for white and black will be favored by natural selection since they both prove useful for camouflage. The intermediate trait of grey does not prove as useful and therefore selective pressures act against the trait.

Freshman in high-school Algerbra 1 Approximately, how many lakes does Texas have? 100 b. 150 200 d. 250 Read the passage.Screen time can have positive effects and can be used for learning, but it can also be negative and toxic to teens. At home, teens use screen time to connect with others, watch videos, and play games, but also to engage in social media banter and sharing. At school, students may watch educational videos that connect to a lesson.Either way, teens are getting more screen time than ever before. Both parents and teachers need to set limits. Just because the technology is available does not mean it is always helpful, experts say.Teachers who wanted technology in their classrooms are now finding it to be a distraction, as students use devices for noneducational purposes.Technology-free schools do exist, as do technology-free homes. Some teens may be able to handle more screen time without the negative effects, but not all of them can, says Tara Bahrampour from the Washington Post. Parents and guardians may be able to adjust screen time at home, but not every place will allow for those limits.Overall, it is important to limit screen time to prevent technology addiction.One idea from the passage is that teenagers should be treated as individuals when it comes to using technology.
