They tend to support large planktonic

communities because (of higher dissolved oxygen and nutrient concentrations).

Explanation:

Planktonic communities are made up of basic organisms that forms the oceanic food web. They are broadly divided into Phytoplankton (these are the producers), Zooplankton (these are the consumers) and Bacterioplankton (these are the recyclers).

High-latitude ocean water is mostly affected by the quantity of oxygen and nutrients it contains. Large planktonic communities thrives in these aquatic environment because is contains higher amount of dissolved oxygen and nutrient concentrations which forms part of their basic needs for survival. This is so because changes in ocean water can impact all levels of the food web. Increase or decrease in ocean temperature can modify the plankton diversity and distribution directly by altering it's metabolic rates and growth.

Therefore due to the geographic location of high latitude ocean, higher dissolved oxygen and nutrient concentrations favour the survival of a larger planktonic communities than other ocean parts.

tsd is temerature dependent sex determination.

tsd: it is a type of environmental sex determination in which the temperature experienced during embryonic/ larval development (ambient temperature for development) determine the sex of the offspring.

crocodile displays the tsd where the ambient temperature of the developing egg determines the individual's sex. for example in the american alligator's eggs, incubation at 33 ºc produces mostly males, while incubation at 30 ºc produces mostly females. so if the american alligator's egg will get the ambient temperature (33 degree celcius)during embryonic development from egg, the offspring will be male and same for the female sex determination.

Awoman whose sister tested positive for a specific mutation in the brca1 gene, which increases the risk for breast and ovarian cancer, is found not to have that mutation but does have a mutation of unknown significance near the known mutation site. how should this woman be counseled? select one: a. she should be informed that her risk for breast cancer is greater than the general population but not as great as her sister’s risk. b. she should be informed that because she does not have the mutation, her risk for breast cancer is not greater than that of the general population. c. she should be informed of her gene mutation status and be presented with all the available prophylaxis options and reconstruction options. d. she should be informed that she does not have the specific mutation but that because another mutation is present she should be vigilant about screening
