It has been demonstrated that ectotherms (such as insects and reptiles) in warm climates tolerate higher temperatures than ectotherms in cooler climates. angilletta hypothesized that urban heat islands could lead to similar differences in heat tolerance between urban and rural populations of leaf-cutter ants. he predicted that ants in urban areas would tolerate heat better than ants in nearby rural areas. select the two best experimental designs for comparing the thermal tolerance of ants in urban areas to ants in nearby rural areas.

Based on the phylogenetic chart, which three statements are true about the relationship between the organisms? a human is more closely related to a mouse than a kangaroo.a platypus is more closely related to kangaroo than a mouse.a human and a kangaroo share common features because of a common ancestor.a platypus and a mouse are more closely related than a platypus and a kangaroo.a kangaroo and a mouse are more closely related than a mouse and a human.

4. how does a phospholipid behave in water? the phosphate head does not mix with water; the fatty acid tails do. the phosphate head and the fatty acid tails mix with water. the phosphate head and the fatty acid tails do not mix with water. the phosphate head mixes with water; the fatty acid tails do not.

Ry was studying two populations of the same species of lizards. one population lived on an island and the other lived on the mainland. both populations were affected by a hurricane that hit the island and the mainland with equal force. a year later, henry was testing the gene frequency and saw a decrease in genetic variation in the island species, but not in the mainland species. which best describes a conclusion he might have reached? gene flow greatly affects small populations, but large populations can recover. genetic drift greatly affects small populations, but large populations can recover. gene flow greatly affects large populations, but small populations can recover. genetic drift greatly affects large populations, but small populations can recover.
