Question 59

a new algae species.
the Nile crocodile.
the Nile perch.
a fish hawk.
The Coriolis Effect
It is the will of the force
The tilt of the Earth s axis from the sun
The length of the Earth s rotation
Earthquakes and tsunamis in Japan
Explanation / Answer
51.
The tilt of the Earth s axis from the sun causes the solar heating of Earth to have seasonal variations
52.
Late age of first reproduction is a character of k-selected population. k-selected polpulation tend to have longer life span, produces a limited number of offsprings and provide extensive parental care.
53.
Immigration, along with birth results in a growth of the population.
54.
False. zero population growth means no net population growth. if the death rate is high in a population, a mere replacment reproduction will not lead to a zero population growth.
55.
The Natural Farming and Back-to-the-Land Association was founded in 1927 in Germany.
56.
One of the greatest expanses of plastic debris has collected in the North Pacific gyre
57.
Genetic drift is more likely to have an impact on small metapopulations
58.
jet fuel
59.
The various endemic cichlid species of Lake Victoria have suffered losses in their population numbers and species due to the introduction of predatory Nile perch.
