Answers:

  1. Multiply the number of sec by 60.
  2. Benefits are oxygen and blood moving more efficiently through the muscles, burns calories, lowers cholesterol, and lowers risk of cancer.
  3. Gel electrophoresis is used to separate miures of DNA, RNA, or preins. An electrophoresis current is applied to gel causing the fragments to move.
  4. A mutation is a change in DNA sequence. Genetic disorders or cancer are effects.
  5. The finches developed different ways to pick up different types of food.
  6. Normal, insertion, deletion, duplication, inversion.
  7. Fossils are bones le over from einct animals.
  8. HIV attacks the immune system and impairs the immune system.
  9. When the body senses new/different substances and the immune system helps attack that invader/imposter. Immune system marks, rembers, attacks.
  10. Decreases a population size and slows the population down from growing.
  11. Carrying capacity is when species average population size in a certain habitat.
  12. Littering, el combines with oxygen, waste management, agriculture, and industrial processes.
  13. Overpopulation, a species that’s bad for the environment.
  14. It's expensive, hard to maintain and sometimes to repair.
  15. Overpopulation, population, burning fossil els, deforestation, and littering.
  16. To maintain ecological balance and to save them for ture generations.
  17. Cells, tissue, organ, organ system, and body.
  18. Dividing a cell's nucleus into 2 for a complete genetic cell.
  19. To test theories provide basis for scientific knowledge
  20. The ovaries produce the eggs, the uterus is the embryo develops into a fetus.
  21. Immunity is the body’s ability to prevent the invasion of pathogens (bacteria, viruses)
  22. Natural selection is when species adapt to a new environment.
