A. II, III, IV, I
B. IV, II, I, III
C. I, III, IV, II
D. III, II, I, IV

Answers

After phosphates and nitrates enter a water system, the steps of eutrophication include the rapid growth of algae, death of underwater plant species, depletion of oxygen in the water, and the death of fishes and invertebrates. The correct option would be B.

Eutrophication refers to the excessive enrichment of water bodies by nutrients such as phosphates and nitrates thereby facilitating the rapid growth of some aquatic species with negative effects.

Once a water body becomes excessively enriched with phosphates and nitrates, the following is a sequence of events that follows:

Algal bloom: the nutrients facilitate the rapid growth of algaeThe bloom of algal species results in the death of underwater plants as a result of inadequate light.The death of the underwater plants and the accompanying microbial activities in decomposing them cause oxygen levels in the water to drop.Reduction in oxygen level causes fishes and other water invertebrates to die due to hypoxia

Therefore, the correct steps of eutrophication according to the illustration is IV, II, I, and III.

Explanation:

Removal of trees and other types of vegetation can reduce the availability of food, shelter and breeding habitat

What is Deforestation?

Deforestation also known as forest clearance is defined as the removal of forest or stands of trees from land that is converted to non-forest use in which forest land is converted into farms, ranches or urban may involve converting to use. The most concentrated deforestation occurs in tropical rainforests.

It occurs when humans remove or thin forests for timber or use land where trees stand for crops, grazing, extraction such as mining, oil, or gas, or as populations grow and people move. Development takes place in the form of migration.

Wildlife habitats are fragmented due to deforestation, where native species have to live on remaining habitat islands that are surrounded by disturbed land being used for agriculture and other uses.

Thus, removal of trees and other types of vegetation can reduce the availability of food, shelter and breeding habitat

Give the functions of the following parts of the respiratory system - Nostril - trachea - bronchiole - alveoli - pharynx - larynx - lungs  - ribs - diaphragm                                                                   

Answers

Answer:

Respiratory System: The respiratory system's main job is to move fresh air into your body while removing waste gases.

Nostril: To warm air on inhalation and remove moisture on exhalation.

trachea: Serves as passage for air, moistens and warms it while it passes into the lungs, and protects the respiratory surface from an accumulation of foreign particles.

bronchiole: To deliver air to a diffuse network of around 300 million alveoli in the lungs.

alveoli: To exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide molecules to and from the bloodstream during breathing.

pharynx: Helps the respiratory system by allowing air to make its way to the respiratory tract.

larynx: Produces vocal sounds and prevents the passage of food and other foreign particles into the lower respiratory tracts.

lungs: To help oxygen from the air we breathe enter the red cells in the blood.

ribs: To aid respiration and help protect the lungs.

diaphragm: Contracts and flattens when you inhale. Creates a vacuum effect that pulls air into the lungs, and relaxes when exhaling.

2) Which animals have a bigger food supply now there are fewer herrings?
3) Global warming is expected to reduce the biomass of phytoplankton in the oceans. What effect will that have on the rest of the food web?​

Answers

Explanation:

1) When the number of herrings decrease, the food available for the puffins decrease and therefore they will not be able to feed their offspring. This will cause the number of offspring to decrease.

2) Any other animal(s) which hunts and eats the same prey as a herring will now have a bigger food supply.

3) When the biomass of phytoplankton decrease, the next animal in the food web will not have any food and their numbers will decrease, decreasing the number of the animals next in the web, as they too lose their food. This will continue for the rest of the food web and the number of animals will decrease.

In a separate maddyase experiment using (Et)-10nM, the reaction velocity is measured as 3uMS. What is the substrate concentration used in the experiment

Answer: hello your question has some missing data attached below is the missing data

Applying the Michaelis-Menten Equation

An enzyme is found that catalyzes the reaction X ⇋ Y Researchers find that kcat for this enzyme is 600s^-1 and carry out several additional experiments.

answer :

substrate concentration [ x ] = 10⁻⁵ M

Explanation:

Given data:

[Et ] = 10 * 10⁻⁹ M ,  

Reaction velocity ( V₀ ) = 3* 10⁻⁶ Ms⁻¹

applying Michaelis-Menten  Equation

= 3* 10⁻⁶ = [tex]\frac{600 *10*10^{-9} * (X) }{10^{-5} + (X) }[/tex]  ,    

= ( 3 * 10⁻⁶ )( x ) + ( 3 * 10⁻¹¹ ) = ( 6 * 10⁻⁶ ) ( x )

hence the substrate concentration [ x ] = 10⁻⁵ M

5. Crabs

6. Genital herpes

7. HPV

Explanation:

STD is an acronym for sexually transmitted disease and it can be defined as diseases that are easily transmissible or contractable from another person through sexual intercourse. Thus, STD spread from an infected person to an uninfected person while engaging in unprotected sexual intercourse. Some examples of STDs are gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, HPV, etc.

Generally, contracting STDs has a detrimental effect to a patient because it causes an opening (break) or sore in the body of the carrier (patient) and as such making them vulnerable to diseases that are spread through bodily fluids e.g human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), Hepatitis, staphylococcus, AIDS, etc.

1. Syphilis: can cause sores, rashes, dementia, or blindness.

2. Gonorrhea: can cause burning urination and infertility

3. Chlamydia: similar to gonorrhea but more likely to be carried unknowingly

4. Trichomoniasis: parasitic STD causing genital irritation and mild discharge.

5. Crabs: pubic lice that cause itching.

6. Genital herpes: untreatable STD causing periodic outbreaks of blisters

7. HPV: can cause genital warts or cervical cancer. HPV is an abbreviation for human papillomavirus and it's a virus that causes most common sexually transmitted infection, giving rise to skin or mucous membrane growths (warts).

The following illustration shows a food web for a kelp forest off of the coast of California. What do you predict would happen to the kelp population if the sea otter population declined?




The kelp population would decrease: sea otters eat urchins, and urchins eat kelp.

The kelp population would increase: sea otters eat urchins, but not exclusively.

The kelp population would remain unchanged; sea otters do not eat the kelp.

The kelp population would remain unchanged: sea otters eat urchins, but not exclusively.

Answers

Answer:

The kelp population would decrease: sea otters eat urchins, and urchins eat kelp.

Explanation:

The diagrammatic illustration in this question is showing a food web made up of a variety of species feeding on one another. As shown in the food web, sea otters are one of the top predators that can eat a wide variety of organisms.

Sea urchins feed directly on kelp, however, the population of sea urchins can be controlled by sea otters which feed on sea urchins. Hence, if population of sea otters declined, more sea urchins will be available to feed on the kelp population, hence, will DECREASE.

Answer:The kelp population would decrease: sea otters eat urchins, and urchins eat kelp.

Because the otter population decreases the urchin population increases and therefore the demand for kelp increases and the kelp population will decrease as the population of urchins increases and it feeds on the kelp and due to the reduction in otters there is nothing controlling the urchin population

Answers

Answer:

a) Presencia de un catalizador

Explanation:

Los dos tipos de cambios que experimentan las sustancias en la química son cambios químicos y físicos.

Un cambio físico es un cambio es un cambio en el que la sustancia cambia en su apariencia o su forma de una manera que es reversible y en la que no se forma una nueva sustancia.

Un cambio químico es aquel en el que hay un cambio en las sustancias presentes y se forma una nueva sustancia.

La evidencia de que ha tenido lugar un cambio químico incluye

1) La formación de un precipitado a partir de la mezcla de sustancias.

2) Un cambio en el color de las sustancias.

3) Un cambio en el olfato (que desprende un olor) o en el sabor.

4) La sustancia produce luz (brilla)

5) El volumen total cambia

6) Cambio de temperatura (la mezcla se calienta o enfría)

Por lo tanto, la presencia de un catalizador, que es una sustancia que no participa en una reacción pero aumenta la velocidad de reacción, no es evidencia de una reacción química.

A zombie apocalypse wipes out almost the entire human species before the zombie threat is eliminated. It appears that only a group of 100 people who were at a family reunion on an uninhabited island survived. They returned to the mainland completely unaware of what had happened to everyone. Answer the following questions regarding the few survivors that now begin to rebuild the human population.

Certain traits will have been lost from the gene pool forever. Some may be obvious, like people with red hair and double jointed thumbs. Others will be less obvious, like the ability to process cholesterol or being allergic to peanuts.

a.) Which of the following best describes the mechanism of microevolution that has altered the human gene pool? Explain.

b.) Despite an abundance of habitat, why will it be difficult for the human species to recover in numbers?

c.) A straggler with green eyes stumbles into the last remaining human outpost. The green eye trait did not exist in the outpost before her arrival, but it does now. What is the name of this mechanism of evolution? Explain.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

A. Hello. You did not enter answer options. However, we can state that mutation, natural selection and genetic drift will be the microevolution mechanisms that will affect the gene pool of these humans. This is because the new environment and the small number of living beings, will make this population completely susceptible to all these evolutionary factors, which will affect, in different ways, the gene frequencies in a population.

B. As the amount of living beings and human beings has become very small, the world will have a low genetic diversity. This will make it difficult for these humans to adapt to the new environment and will make them more susceptible to possible diseases that will arise in this new environment. This will make these humans more fragile and make it harder for them to multiply.

C. The evolution mechanism is the Gene Flow. Gene Flow refers to the exchange of genetic information between individuals in a population, through the donation of gametes that occur in reproductive processes. In this case, we can consider that the individual with green eyes, upon arriving in the community with individuals without green eyes, began to reproduce descendants, who, upon receiving the gametes responsible for green eyes, began to populate this community with this characteristic.
