Just 30 years ago, lionfish were rarely spotted off the Florida coast. Today, the waters around Florida are full of lionfish. The spines of the lionfish allow lots of light from the sun to pass through.

Now, what do the have in common?They are both vascular They both have sporophyte dominant generation

Some gymnosperm types

cycads. Palm-like plants found mainly in tropical and subtropical regions.ginkgoes: maidenhair tree. One species: Ginkgo biloba; the maidenfern tree no longer living in the wild, and only found in cultivation.gnetophytes: mormon tea, welwitschia, gnetum.conifers: pines, spruces and firs.

which property decribes a materails abilty to conduct heat ?
A . Electrical conductivity
B . Boiling point
C . Thermal conductivity
D . Melting point

Answers

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Your answer is option C or "thermal conductivity." Thermal conductivity relates to conduction, conduction is when heat transfers from a warm object to a cool object increasing the cooler objects temperature. A common example of material that can conduct heat would be something like metal, metal is able to transfer heat a lot quicker than something like rubber. It's not electrical conductivity because that is materials that are able to conduct electricity. It's not boiling point because that is the temperature that causes different liquids to boil, it's not melting point because that is the temperature that causes different materials to melt.

Hope this helps.

C because it was created to conduct heat.

Male seahorses are equipped with a brood pouch on their ventral, or front-facing, side. When mating, the female deposits her eggs into his pouch, and the male fertilizes them internally. He carries the eggs in his pouch until they hatch, then releases fully formed, miniature seahorses into the water.

Answer:

The brood pouch

Explanation:

The brood pouch is only found on the male seahorse. It is used to incubate the eggs from a female seahorse. If you don't know what incubate means, it means the the pouch keeps the eggs warm

Explanation:

Miohippus would be found in the uppermost layer of rock. Therefore, option (B) is correct.

What is Miohippus?

Miohippus is an extinct genus of early horse that lived in North America during the Miocene epoch, around 23 to 5 million years ago. It was a small, three-toed horse that was slightly larger than its predecessor, Mesohippus.

Miohippus had a relatively short face, with a long, narrow skull and teeth that were adapted for grinding tough vegetation. It is believed that Miohippus was the ancestor of the modern horse, and that its evolution was characterized by an increase in size, a reduction in the number of toes, and changes in the shape of the skull and teeth that allowed for a more efficient grazing diet.
