Observe an ecosystem in your locality, name the ecosystem, list all the biotic and abiotic components of the ecosystem, and make a diagram to represent the interaction of the components.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Ecosystem: Native ForestBiotic components: trees, shrubs, herbs, grasses, fungi, lichens, rodents, foxes, puma, small birds,  owls, birds of prey, amphibians, reptiles, snakes, insects, microorganisms.   Abiotic components: Sunlight, dead organic matter, river, stones, rocks, fertile soil, nutrients.

Explanation:

Ecosystems include all the biotic, physical, and chemical components of nature, continuously interacting and depending on each other. The ecosystem is composed of living beings and non-living things that interact and depend on each other. These are the biotic and abiotic factors.  

A few examples of abiotic factors are solar light, minerals, water, air, gases, soil, and humidity.

Examples of biotic factors are plants, animals, insects, microorganisms, etc.

An example of an ecosystem in my locality is the native forest in the hills.

The forest is composed of many vegetable species, among which we may find trees, shrubs, herbs, grasses. We can also find lichens and fungi. Many mammal species such as little rodents, foxes, puma. Many bird species, among which we can find owls and some other birds of prey. There are different kinds of snakes and reptiles. There are amphibian species near the shore of the river that is crossing the forest. The soil is quite fertile, providing nutrients to the organisms. There is too much organic matter of vegetable origin, such as leaves or fallen and dead trees. Many microorganisms live in this dead matter. Insects are everywhere. There are some steep slopes in which stones, rocks, and tree roots hold the ground.

Name & describe the six essential activities of the digestive tract.

Answers

Answer:

Ingestion: Consuming something orally, whether it be food, drink, medicine, or other substance; the first step of digestion. bolus: a round mass of something, especially of chewed food in the mouth or alimentary canal.

Propulsion: Propulsion means to push forward or drive an object forward. A propulsion system is a machine that produces thrust to push an object forward. On airplanes, thrust is usually generated through some application of Newton's third law of action and reaction.

Mechanical Digestion: Mechanical digestion is a purely physical process that does not change the chemical nature of the food. Instead, it makes the food smaller to increase both surface area and mobility. It includes mastication, or chewing, as well as tongue movements that help break food into smaller bits and mix food with saliva.

Chemical Digestion: Chemical digestion involves the secretions of enzymes throughout your digestive tract. These enzymes break the chemical bonds that hold food particles together. This allows food to be broken down into small, digestible parts.

Absorption: Absorption is a condition in which something takes in another substance. The process of absorption means that a substance captures and transforms energy. The absorbent distributes the material it captures throughout whole and adsorbent only distributes it through the surface.

Defecation: Defecation is the term given for the act of expelling feces from the digestive tract via the anus.

What characteristics of the blood cell helps it to pass freely through blood capillaries

Answers

Answer:

The cell is flexible and assumes a bell shape as it passes through extremely small blood vessels. It is covered with a membrane composed of lipids and proteins, lacks a nucleus, and contains hemoglobin—a red iron-rich protein that binds oxygen.

Answer:

The cell is flexible and takes the form of a bell through extremely small blood vessels. It is clothed in a fluid and protein-membrane, lacks a nucleus, and has hemoglobin—a rich red iron protein that binds oxygen.

Explanation:

The hemoglobin in red blood cells contains four iron-binding heme groups.

Heme groups of hemoglobin are binding on oxygen. Each molecule of hemoglobin can bind up to four molecules of oxygen.

Hemoglobin has a cooperative binding affinity to oxygen. The saturation of the molecule increases by oxygen. The connection of the initial molecule of oxygen affects the form of the other binding sites. For additional oxygen molecules, the binding becomes more favorable.

The four iron-binding hemo-groups are located in each hemoglobin molecule. Hemoglobin is known as oxygen-bound hemoglobin.

The reversible carbon dioxide is transformed into the carbonic acid reaction by the enzyme carbenoid anhydrase by the Red blood cells altering the blood PH.

Instead of being converted to carbonic acid, pH is controlled by carbon dioxide bindings to hemoglobin.

CO2: The enzyme found in RBCs catalyzing the reaction between carbonic anhydrase and carbonate dioxide and water.

Co-operative binding: When a first molecule is binding to a binding location, the same molecule is favored for the remainder of the binding locations by means of increased binding affinity.

Which of the following pieces of evidence would best support the argument that humans are more evolutionarily related to fish than they are to insects? (1 point) The early stages of embryo development in fish and humans look strikingly similar while insects develop very differently compared to both fish and humans, O All these organisms require oxygen to survive. O The earliest fish fossils are found in the lowest strata of sedimentary rocks, followed by insects, and then humans. O Fossils of ancient fish and human ancestors have been discovered in the same sedimentary rock layers.​

Answers

Answer:

The early stages of embryo development in fish and humans look strikingly similar while insects develop very differently compared to both fish and humans,

Explanation:

It tells you that fish and humans have very similar embryo development (fetus development) while humans and insects develop very differently. Therefore, that supports the argument that humans are more like fish than insects.

Answer:

(Q1) Most people develop wisdom teeth by early adulthood. Wisdom teeth can cause pain or crowd out their other teeth, so many people have these teeth removed. Wisdom teeth in modern humans do not perform a crucial life function.

(Answer)They are vestigial structures that once performed an important function for human ancestors.

(Q2) Which statement is true?

(Answer) Imprints of leaves or footprints in sedimentary rock are fossils.

(Q3) Which statement about these fossils is supported by the evidence in the diagram?

(Answer) Homo erectus is the most recent ancestor to modern humans.

(Q4) Which of the following pieces of evidence would best support the argument that humans are more evolutionarily related to fish than they are to insects?

(Answer) The early stages of embryo development in fish and humans look strikingly similar while insects develop very differently compared to both fish and humans.

(Q5) Human embryos have tails, which become tail bones before birth. Tails also appear in fish, reptiles, amphibians, birds, and mammals. Humans also have hair and produce milk to nourish the young, which is unique to mammals. What does this indicate?

what is the part of endoplasmic reticulum without proteins attached?

Answers

Answer:

Regions of ER that lack bound ribosomes are called smooth endoplasmic reticulum, or smooth ER.

Answer:

The ER regions lacking bonded ribosomes are referred to as the smooth or smooth endoplasmic reticulum.

Explanation:

The Endoplasmic reticulum is a membrane network within the cell that transmits proteins and other molecules. Proteins called ribosomes are assembled at organelles. The ribosomes that are assembled to the endoplasmic reticulum give it a rough look when proteins are intended for cell membrane or export from the cells. Smooth endoplasmic ribosomes are absent and help to synthesize and concentrate various cell-required substances.

Either a smooth or rough endoplasmic reticulum is capable of producing protein in general for the rest of the cell to function. The raw endoplasmic reticulum contains ribosomes, small, red organelles that make these proteins. Sometimes the proteins remain inside the endoplasmic reticulum when made incorrectly.

It is retained and the endoplasmic reticulum is engulfed because it appears to be stuck in a way that does not lead the protein where it is supposed to go. There is also the smooth endoplasmic reticulum on which these ribosomes are not contained. This smooth endoplasmic reticulum produces other materials that the cell needs. The endoplasmic reticulum is an organelle that actually produces proteins and substances that are necessary for the rest of the cell.
