The energy of the sun heats the land unevenly, creating wind.
What is Earth?Earth, the third planet from the Sun, is the planet where all known life is found. Although the Solar System contains enormous amounts of water, only Earth is home to liquid surface water.
The ocean covers roughly 70.8% of Earth's surface, dwarfing the polar ice, lakes, and rivers. Earth's surface is made up of continents and islands for the remaining 29.2% of its total area.
Several slowly moving tectonic plates that make up the Earth's surface combine to create mountain ranges, volcanoes, and earthquakes. The magnetic field that forms the Earth's magnetosphere and diverts harmful solar winds is produced by the liquid outer core of the planet.
Therefore, The energy of the sun heats the land unevenly, creating wind.

Which of the following is *true* of the placenta? Question 18 options: 1) It fully develops six months after birth. 2) It forms during the seventh month of prenatal development. 3) It is the fluid-filled sac that houses the developing embryo and fetus. 4) It allows the exchange of nutrients between the embryo and the mother, while at the same time filtering out harmful material.
Answer:
4) It allows the exchange of nutrients between the embryo and the mother, while at the same time filtering out harmful material.
Explanation:
The placenta is an organ present in all mammals. She is confirmed between the 6th and 8th week of pregnancy and has as main function the exchange of substances between the mother and the fetus. Among these substances are nutrients, gases and even secretions. The placenta also has the function of fighting infections and promoting immunity to the fetus, in addition, it can act as the lung, the intestine and the liver, while the fetus does not develop its organs.

The main difference between the gravitational force and electrical force is that
1. Gravitational force can only push
2. Gravitational force can pull and push
3. Electrical force can only pull
4. Electrical force can pull and push
The difference between the gravitational force and electrical force is that the electrical force can pull and push while the gravitational force is only attractive which means it can only pull.
What do you mean by Gravitational force?Gravitational force may be defined as a conservative force by which the earth allures other objects by mass.
The basic difference between both two forces is that the gravitational force can only attract masses, while electrostatic force either attracts or repel when two charges of the same sign are gathered.
Therefore, the correct option for this question is D.

Which of the following are shown in karyotypes?
a
sex chromosomes
b
homologous chromosomes
c
autosomes
d
all of the above
Answer:
Karyotypes describe the chromosome count of an organism and what these chromosomes look like under a light microscope. Attention is paid to their length, the position of the centromeres, banding pattern, any differences between the sex chromosomes, and any other physical characteristics.
Explanation:
As this karyotype displays, a diploid human cell contains 22 pairs of homologous chromosomes and 2 sex chromosomes. ... The maternal and paternal chromosomes in a homologous pair have the same genes at the same locus, but possibly different alleles.
Consider two pure-breeding lines of grapes, P1 and P2. The average diameter of P1 grapes is 1.2 cm and the variance is 0.30 cm2. The average diameter of P2 grapes is 1.6 cm and the variance is 0.56 cm2. The two pure-breeding lines are crossed to produce F1 progeny. Based on this description, which of the following statements is false?
a) VG for F1 is > 0
b) VP for P1 < VG for P2
c) VE for F1 is > 0
d) VG for P1 = 0
e) VG for P2 = 0
Answer:
a)
Explanation:
From the given information:
The avg diameters:
For P1 grapes =1.2 cm
For P2 grapes = 1.6 cm
Their vairance is also given as follows:
For P1 = 0.30 cm²
For P2 = 0.56 cm²
Recall that:
the phenotypic variance VP = genetic variance (VG) + environmental variance VE
As stated that P1 and P2 lines are pure breeding lines, which means that the diameter of the seed in F1 was around halfway between the two parents' and the difference in the F1 was close to the parents'.
This implies that, provided the parent lines exist as pure breeding;
The genetic variation would be absent, indicating that VG is zero.
∴
VP = VE and VG = 0
Now, averaging the results of two pure breeding lines, we have:
[tex]V_E = \Big (\dfrac{0.30 + 0.56}{2} \Big) \\ \\ V_E = \dfrac{0.86}{2} \\ \\ V_E = 0.43 \ cm^2[/tex]
The formula used in estimating F1 genetic variance can be expressed as:
VP = VG + VE
Recall that
VE = VP = 0.43 cm²
∴
0.43 = VG + 0.43
VG = 0.43 - 0.43
VG = 0
Thus, The statement that is false is in Option a.
VG for F1 is > 0

Human blood type is determined by three alleles IA, IB, and IO. The alleles IA and IB are co-dominant to each other, and both are dominant to IO. Within a large, randomly mating population (540,000 individuals), the frequencies for the blood type alleles are 0.3 for the IA allele, 0.6 for the IO allele, and 0.1 for the IB allele. Calculate the expected numbers of people in the population having the blood type of A.
Answer:
1a. Number of people in the population with blood group A = 243000
1b. Number of people in the population with blood group B = 70,200
1c. Number of people in the population with blood group AB = 32,400
1d. Number of people in the population with blood group O = 194000
2. The percentage of type B people that are heterozygotes (IBIO) = 12%
Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is given below:
Human blood type is determined by three alleles IA, IB, and IO. The alleles IA and IB are co-dominant to each other, and both ar e dominant to IO. Within a large, randomly mating population (540,000 individuals), the frequencies for the blood type alleles are 0.3 for the IA allele, 0.6 for IO, and 0.1 for the IB allele. a. Calculate the expected numbers of people in the population having each blood type A, B, AB, and O. b. 2. Determine the percentage of type B people that are heterozygotes (IBIO).
Explanation:
According to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation, p²+q²+2pq=1
Where heterozygote allele 2pq,
p² = dominant h0m0zygous frequency
2pq = heterozygous frequency
q² = recessive h0m0zygous frequency
1a. Blood group A has two genotypes- IAIA and IAIO
The genotype frequency will be:
IAIA= 0.3 X 0.3 = 0.09
IAIO= 2 × 0.3 x 0.6 = 0.36
Total genotype frequency = 0.09 + 0.36 = 0.45
Number of people in the population with blood group A = 0.45 × 540,000 = 243000
b. Blood group has two genotypes- IAIB and IBIO
The genotype frequency will be:
IBIB= 0.1 x 0.1 = 0.01
IBIO = 2 × 0.1 x 0.6 = 0.12
Total genotype frequncy = 0.13
Number of people in the population with blood group B = 0.13 × 540,000 = 70,200
c. Blood group AB genotype frequency is 2 × IAIB x IAIB
Blood group AB = 2 × 0.3 x 0.1 = 0.06
Number of people in the population with blood group AB = 0.06 × 540,000 = 32,400
d. Blood group O has one genotype IOIO
IOIO = 0.6 × 0.6 = 0.36
Number of people in the population with blood group O = 0.36 × 540000 = 194000
2. Genotype frequency of heterozygote IBIO blood group = 2 × IB × IO
2 × 0.1 x 0.6 = 0.12 = 12%
The percentage of type B people that are heterozygotes (IBIO) = 12%

8. How did the Grants test their hypothesis that differences in birds' songs can keep finches
from breeding with members of other species?
a. They watched which birds were mating with each other and listened for the songs the
birds were singing.
b. They recorded birds singing on the island of Daphne Major for an entire breeding
season to see which type of song was used more often by each species.
c. They played the songs of medium ground finches and cactus finches through a
loudspeaker at different times, when individuals from both species were present, to see which
species responded to each song,
d. They played the song of the medium ground finch to medium ground finch males
through a loudspeaker to see if they would respond; they then played the song of the cactus
finch to cactus finch males to see if they would respond.
9. Explain the evidence presented in the film for your answer in question #8 above.
a. Males only came to the loudspeaker when the song of their own species was being played.
b. The type of song used more often during the breeding season was also the song sung by the
most abundant species.
c. During mating, birds sang the song of their own species.
Answer:
The correct answer is -
8. They played the songs of medium ground finches and cactus finches through a loudspeaker at different times, when individuals from both species were present, to see which species responded to each song.
9. Males only came to the loudspeaker when the song of their own species was being played.
Explanation:
To test the hypothesis that differences in finches song they sing keep these finches to breeding from other members of finches, Grant should play the different songs of both medium ground finches and cactus finches one by one in loudspeaker and see what members of finches respond on what song.
It will show that cactus fiches breed only on their songs and medium ground finches on their song if the hypothesis is true. Male of each species respond to their songs only and not on other song played on loudspeaker

why the solute can't move from higher concentration to lower concentration?
Answer:
yes, so when the concentration of a solute is high, the concentration of water is lowered since there is more solute per water, less water per solute. Thus, when water moves from low concentrations of solute to high concentrations of solute, it moves from high concentrations of water to low concentrations of water.
