Scientists have observed many close similarities in the DNA sequences of whales and dolphins. This observation is evidence of which idea?

Sand spinifex grass is adapted to growing on sand dunes. it is a rapidly spreading plant and the creeping runners produce new root systems. which of these best explains the benefits of these features? a. it limits water loss through the leaves. b. it provides support by anchoring the plant. c. it protects the plant from predators. d. it allows the plant to tolerate salt. reset submit

18. over time, how do sand dunes tend to migrate? a. perpendicular to the movement of the wind b. in the same direction as the wind blows c. toward the wind d. in random directions

How do temperature and salinity affect deepwater currents? they create changes in wind direction, moving denser water in the same direction as the wind and causing the deepwater circulation patterns found in the ocean. as temperatures and salinity levels of water increase, the water rises to the surface where it creates currents as it moves to colder regions. they create density differences that cause dense deepwater currents to flow toward the equator where they displace less dense, warmer water above them. they equalize the forces on undersea currents caused by the coriolis effect as they replace more dense water with less dense water.
