The organism shown in figure 21-2 is an example of

c. an amoeba

d. a spore-forming protist

Liquefaction was one reason the kobe wharfs were destroyed and other areas nearby. what is liquefaction? a. it is when conditions in the soil send the seismic wave out to the mountains and bounce back b. it is when conditions in the soil change to vigorous p-wave shaking when the surface waves pass by c. it referes to the fact that when an earthquake occurs wet and soft soil will vibrate more vigorously then solid rocky soil strangely in kobe some streets had very bad damage but the next street over had far less damage. what caused this? a. the waves passed through the city hit the mountains and returned back to the city. at some points the incoming and outgoing waves amplified their strength b. the mountains also had a quake and sent waves into the city c. waves hit the moutains and took longer to return

Which of the following is most important in making the typical seed more resistant to adverse conditions than the typical spore? a) a different type of sporopollenin b) an internal reservoir of liquid water c) integument(s) d) ability to be dispersed e) waxy cuticle

Female luna moths (actias luna) attract males by emitting chemical signals that spread through the air. a male hundreds of meters away can detect these molecules and fly toward their source. the sensory organs responsible for this behavior are the comblike antennae visible in the photograph shown here. each filament of an antenna is equipped with thousands of receptor cells that detect the sex attractant. based on what you learned in this chapter, propose a hypothesis to account for the ability of the male moth to detect a specific molecule in the presence of many other molecules in the air. what predictions does your hypothesis make? design an experiment to test one of these predictions.
