Amountaineer is planning an expedition. he wants to follow the easiest possible path, which means he needs to find the most gentle slope up the mountain. which route should the mountaineer choose? a. route a b. route b c. route c d. route d

He will need to take the first route, Route A.  This is because if you look, the drops are far more spaced away from each other than that of b,c, or d.

Route A

Explanation:

From the topographical map, one can determine the steepness of the mountain. Close contours indicate a steep slope but wide contours depict a gentle and a broad slope. The wider the contours, the broader is the slope.

In the given image, the most favorable path will be route A as the contours are widely arranged, indicating a much gentle slope. The route might be long but is efficient. So the mountaineer will decide to take the route A to climb the mountain without much difficulty and risk factor.

an adaptation is a change or process by which an organism takes to be better suited for its environment. for example; migration is a behavioral adaptation, this is needed because birds are not built to last extremely cold climates. there are different adaptations because there are different species needing to adjust to different things, bears don't migrate; they hibernate.

1. a host loses nutrients to a parasite

2. a parasite only benefits when the host is alive (cause if the host dies the parasite dies with it )

3. producers to consumers

4. the tapeworm is a parasite

5. they convert energy from the sun (photosynthesis)

6. sunflower-robin (i think im 80% sure)

7. producer

8. consumer

9. prey

10. fresh water snails ( cause the green algea is the producer and the snails are the primary consumers and the small fish consumer so is the big fish)
