Individual Evolution Assignment Valesia Johnson SCI/230 March 30‚ 2014 Linda Armstrong Individual Evolution Assignment Resource: “The Origin of Species” section in Ch. 14 of Campbell Essential Biology With Physiology You must number your answers. Think about early prehistoric times for humans - a primitive society not an industrialized society. 1. How might natural selection have influenced human choices and behaviors in a prehistoric society? Answer in paragraph form. Natural selection

there is no condition for the magma to stay in a liquid state‚ it will cool and solidify into an igneous rock. The three main types of rocks can melt into magma and cool to form igneous rocks. The start of the cycle can be placed at the mid-ocean divergent boundaries where new magma is produced by mantle upwelling and a shallow melting zone. This new magma is the first phase of the igneous part of the cycle. The types of igneous rocks are Granite‚ Pumice‚ Obsidian‚ Andesite‚ Rhyolite and Basalt. There

above assuming a coefficient of discharge of 0.96 and a nozzle efficiency of 0.92. 3430 mm2; 5310 mm2 Problem 4 A convergent-divergent nozzle expands air at 6.89 bar and 427 0C into a space at 1bar. The throat area of the nozzle is 650 mm2 and the exit area is 975 mm2. The exit velocity is found to be 680 m/s when the inlet velocity is negligible. Assuming that friction in the convergent portion is negligible‚ calculate: (i) The mass flow through the nozzle‚ stating whether the nozzle is underexpanding

Practical Exercise 1 Supercontinents! What happens at tectonic plate boundaries? Three types of plate boundary • Divergent • Convergent • Transform Divergent Boundaries • Spreading ridges – As plates move apart new material is erupted to fill the gap Age of Oceanic Crust Courtesy of www.ngdc.noaa.gov Iceland: An example of continental rifting • Iceland has a divergent plate boundary running through its middle

plates meet. Boundaries have different names depending on how the two plates are moving with each other. If they are crashing against each other they are Convergent Boundaries. If they are pulling apart from each other they are called Divergent Boundaries. If they are bumping or sideswiping each other they are transform boundaries. Convergent boundaries occur when two plates slide towards each other. They can also create subduction zones which means that one plates moved under the other. They may

Answer: Number on Map Feature(s) Explanation 1 islands Islands are convergent boundaries because the plate B goes toward the direction of the plate A‚ this collapse creates what we call islands. 2 trench This trenches are convergent boundaries because the plates B goes toward the direction of plate A‚ the result of these collapse is what we call trenches. 3 rift valley The movement of the plates A and C is a divergent plate boundary‚ which are two tectonics plates that move away from each
