Identify the species of horse fossils that would be found in the uppermost layer of rock.
A Orohippus
B Mesohippus
C Hyracotherium
D Miohippus​

Answer: I think the answer would be D miohippus

Explanation:

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

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.

In the spring of each year, the second largest dead zone in the United States forms in the Gulf of Mexico. During the spring, farmers fertilize their land as they prepare for crop season. As a result, nutrients from the fertilizers, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, drain into the Mississippi River and eventually the Gulf of Mexico. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, “Excess nutrients that run off land or are piped as wastewater into rivers and coasts can stimulate an overgrowth of algae, which then sinks and decomposes in the water” (NOAA, 2018). The decomposition process consumes and depletes oxygen levels in the Gulf of Mexico, which causes hypoxic areas or dead zones.



A group of scientists measured several water quality parameters to better understand how dead zones in the Gulf of Mexico impact brown shrimp populations over time. The scientists are most interested in the dissolved oxygen levels because the levels are critical for the survival of brown shrimp populations. Brown shrimp populations thrive when dissolved oxygen levels in the Gulf of Mexico are greater than 2 mg/L. However, the populations cannot thrive when dissolved oxygen levels are at or below 2/mg/L.

The picture below shows a lionfish. The lionfish is native to the Indian Ocean, and they prey on the smaller fish that are also eaten by grouper and snappers, which are native to Florida. 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.

Based on the information provided above,
how will the lionfish most likely change Florida's ocean environment?
A.
They will make native animals get sick by putting toxins in the water.

B.
They will block the sunlight from reaching native plants.

C.
They will use food needed by native animals.

D.
They will make the number of small fish off the coast of Florida go up.

Non-native Burmese pythons have established a breeding population in South Florida and are one of the most concerning invasive species in Everglades National Park. Pythons compete with native wildlife for food, which includes mammals, birds, and other reptiles. Severe mammal declines in Everglades National Park have been linked to Burmese pythons.

Scientists think that the issue is the pythons are killing alligators in the area. Which question below would BEST help to support the scientists theory?



A.
Do pythons squeeze their prey?

B.
Do pythons swim in water?

C.
Do homeowners trap and kill the Burmese python?



D.
Do more animals disappear in areas where pythons have been reported?

In August 2010, the Asian Clam was discovered in Lake George. It is not native to that lake. A single Asian Clam can reproduce and release hundreds of offspring in a day. Fish and crayfish eat the clams but cannot keep pace with the rate at which the clams reproduce. The Asian Clam eats the same food as native clams.

A scientist set up two model lakes in large tanks with the same animal species as Lake George in order to test how the Asian Clam might be impacting the ecosystem. The scientists added Asian Clams to one tank but not the other tank.

image

Which statement BEST predicts what would likely happen in the experimental tank?

A.
The impact would be negative because it would reduce the amount of food available for the fish and crayfish populations.

B.
The impact would be positive because it would reduce competition with native clams and increase the stability of the ecosystem.

C.
The impact would be negative because it would increase competition with native clams and reduce the stability of the ecosystem.

D.
The impact would be positive because it would provide the fish and crayfish populations with food.
