When a wave reaches a beach or coastline, it releases a burst of energy that generates a current, which runs parallel to the shoreline and this type of current is called a longshore current as you can see here. How does a strong longshore
current develop? There are several ways. AL BUT ONE answers the question.
A)when a wave encounters a steep beach slope
B)when a wave has a high amplitude or wave crest
C)when a wave breaks at a more acute angle on a beach
D)when a wave has a wider breaking angle on the shore

The seed coat's most important function is to provide a) a nonstressful environment for the megasporangium. b) the means for dispersal. c) dormancy. d) a nutrient supply for the embryo. e) desiccation resistance.

In natural selection, what is actually “selected? ” a) alleles are directly selected b) genotypes are directly selected c) phenotypes are directly selected d) entire populations are directly selected

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.
