Officials use beach mile days because this calculation gives a greater sense of recreational loss than just looking at how many miles of beach were closed. If 30 miles of beach were closed for a half day during closure event A and 5 miles of beach were closed for 5.5 days during closure event B, which closure event led to the most recreational loss? Explain. need to show work..

Over the past 60 years, many amphibian species have experienced significant population declines and some species have become extinct. scientists suspected that local human activities such as the destruction of wetlands, regional pollution, and deforestation were the main reasons for these losses. however, research over the past 20 years reveals significant amphibian population declines in protected areas of the world, such as nature preserves and parks. these global declines suggest widespread problems including increased ultraviolet radiation, acid rain, and disease. in switzerland, for example, 14 of the 20 native amphibian species are threatened with extinction. chytridiomycosis is a fungal disease first identified in 1998 as a cause of massive amphibian deaths. in some severely impacted populations, a few individuals have survived, perhaps because of some natural resistance. if these resistant individuals continue to survive and prosper, new resistant populations might emerge. this would be an example of the founder effect artificial selection genetic drift natural selection sexual selection

Amylase becomes denatured at a temperature of 80°c. during an experiment to study the effect of varyingtemperature on enzyme activity, amylase’s reactivity with starch was measured at body temperature (37°c), andthen again at an increased temperature of 42°c. how would this increase in temperature affect the experiment
