An oil spill happened at the wild harbor salt marsh on cape cod, massachusetts in 1969. the oil has persisted in the ground since then. how is the green crab used as evidence for the idea that oil still exists in the lower layers of the soil? these organisms show increased reproductive rates compared with previous rates. these organisms show increased predation on other species than prior to the spill. these organisms dig more shallow burrows than they used to. these organisms migrate to deeper waters than they did before.

Which of the following is not a characteristic of natural selection? 100 points pls more offspring are born than will survive to reproduce. mutations appear randomly breeding pairs are chosen by humans organisms that are better adapted are more likely to survive

In natural selection, what is actually “selected? ” a) alleles are directly selected b) genotypes are directly selected c) phenotypes are directly selected d) entire populations are directly selected

Where does all the water go? according to the environmental protection agency (epa), in a typical wetland environment, 39% of the water is outflow; 46% is seepage; 7% evaporates; and 8% remains as water volume in the ecosystem (reference: united states environmental protection agency case studies report 832-r-93-005). chloride compounds as residuals from residential areas are a problem for wetlands. suppose that in a particular wetland environment the following concentrations (mg/l) of chloride compounds were found: outflow, 60.4; seepage, 73.7; remaining due to evaporation, 26.4; in the water volume, 46.8. (a) compute the weighted average of chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) for this ecological system. (round your answer to one decimal place.) mg/l (b) suppose the epa has established an average chlorine compound concentration target of no more than 58 mg/l. does this wetlands system meet the target standard for chlorine compound concentration? yes. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is too high. yes. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is lower than the target. no. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is lower than the target. no. the average chlorine compound concentration (mg/l) is too high.
