Imagine you are sitting on a surfboard in the ocean, waiting to catch a big wave. When the ocean is still, you are sitting at a point that would be the midpoint (the undisturbed position) of any waves that come your way. You look out to see and see a set of waves coming your way. What you see is actually a pattern of troughs followed be crests of the waves moving toward you and the shore. The distance between the crests is 5 meters. A crest passes you every 20 seconds. Answer these questions:

a. What is the wavelength?

b. What is the frequency?

c. What is the wave velocity?

Researchers determine that the biodiversity in a woodland region is declining. they identify two major threats to the region's biodiversity, a method to address each threat, and the expected outcome of each method. this information is shown in the table. a) reforestation would not benefit many species because most forest species live on the ground. b) reforestation would take the longest time to be effective because trees take several years to grow. c) biological augmentation would benefit only a few species because is is typically not very effective. d) biological augmentation would take less time to ve effective because it targets the majority of prey species.
