Answer:
❑How much do you depend on natural ecosystems that you use for recreation (camping, fishing, hunting, hiking, swimming, boating)? 4
❑How much do you depend on natural ecosystems for the food you eat? 5
❑How important is preserving natural ecosystems to you? 5
❑How willing are you to sacrifice things in your life to make sure that natural ecosystems stay unharmed in the future? 4
Explanation:
The questions are closely related to ecosystemic services and how humans make use of it. Let us first review theoretical concepts, and then discuss the rating of the questions.
Ecosystem services refer to all the benefits that human beings can get from ecosystems, not only for survival but also for good life quality. There are four types of ecosystem services:
• Provision or supply:
These are the products obtained by nature to be used or consumed, directly or with previous processing. Among them, we might mention food, clear freshwater, fertile soils, geotic materials, raw materials (used for clothing, construction), renewable fuels, biochemical compounds, pharmacological/medicinal resources, among others.
• Regulation:
Refers to ecological processes that improve life. Among others, we might mention climate regulation, CO² absorption, water purification, air purification, erosion control, natural disaster avoidance such as flooding, soil fertility maintenance, waste recycling, pest/plague control, etc.
• Cultural:
Refers to not the material benefits. Ecosystems also provide a recreational place or area to spend time, learn, enjoy spiritual/religious space, and are a source of inspiration. It is considered to be cultural patrimony and the source of scientific knowledge.

I answered the questions from my personal point of view, and considering 5 as the most important topic, and 1 as the less important. So, from most important to less important is 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
❑How much do you depend on natural ecosystems that you use for recreation (camping, fishing, hunting, hiking, swimming, boating)?
Probably, we as species, do not need these activities to survive. However, we need them to have good mental health. These are activities that we enjoy and that produce satisfaction. Whenever we do things that we enjoy our organism secretes hormones that make us feel happy. This feeling is important when people are stress about any personal situation. So, this question does not get the highest rate, but it gets a significant one, a 4.
❑How much do you depend on natural ecosystems for the food you eat?
Basically, we depend on nature and the ecosystem to get food and any kind of supply. If the ecosystems are damaged and altered, there is a general disbalance, and every form of life is affected. Some species might even get extinct. If we keep damaging the environment as we are doing currently, we will get to the point of not having any supply available to survive. So this is one of the most important questions, which gets the highest rate, a big 5.
❑How important is preserving natural ecosystems to you?
This question is closely related to the anterior one. It is very important for us as a species to realize that we depend on nature 100%, that we need to take care of it and preserve ecosystems all around the world. With no healthy and equilibrated ecosystems, we do not get to survive. So this is the other question that gets the highest rate, 5.
❑How willing are you to sacrifice things in your life to make sure that natural ecosystems stay unharmed in the future?
This one is kind of difficult to answer, We could say that we are 100% willing to sacrifice to make sure ecosystems stay unharmed. However, we are so used to consumption, technology, confort, an easy lifestyle, and etc, that would be really difficult for us to sacrifice everything that we are used to. Just imagine yourself giving up your cellphone or your computer. Technology is one of the most polluting industries in the world. But we depend so much on it, that seems almost impossible to imagine us without it. This is why my score for this question is a 4. Personally, I surely would sacrifice too many useful things, but I find it hard to sacrifice some others.

What is the difference between food chains and food webs?
1. Food webs show the flow of energy from producers to consumers, and food chains show the flow of energy from consumers to producers.
2.Food chains show a single path of energy in an ecosystem, and food webs show overlapping pathways of energy in that ecosystem.
3.About ten percent of the energy is passed on to the next trophic level in food webs, but in food chains, about ninety percent is passed on to the next trophic level.
4.Heat is lost when energy is passed on to the next trophic level in food chains, but in food webs, heat is not lost when energy is passed on to the next trophic level.
Answer:
2. Food chains show a single path of energy in an ecosystem, and food webs show overlapping pathways of energy in that ecosystem.
Explanation:
A food chain is a single chain representing who eats whom in a system of organisms. A food web is a system of food chains, involving overlapping pathways of different foodchains.
Answer:
2.Food chains show a single path of energy in an ecosystem, and food webs show overlapping pathways of energy in that ecosystem.
Explanation:
A food chain shows only a targeted path, while a food web shows a more realistic path. See attached photos.
First picture: Food Chain: Notice how it only shows one path from producer to tertiary consumer.
Second picture: Food Web: Notice the many pathing that connects for certain organisms in the food web. It shows a more realistic distribution of energy in a real world scenario.
Each of the following will result in complement activation EXCEPT Group of answer choices TLR binding to PAMP on the microbe. recognition of lipid-carbohydrate molecules on the surface of the microbe. lectin binding to mannose on the surface of the microbe. Antibody binding to antigen. All of these will result in activation of complement.
Answer:
TLR binding to PAMP on the microbe
Explanation:
The complement system is a group of proteins in the blood that enhance immune responses by complementing the ability of antibodies and phagocytic cells to mediate effector responses (e.g., lysis, activation of inflammation, opsonization, solubilization of immune complexes, etc). Complement can be activated through the recognition of microbes by soluble pattern-recognition molecules (i.e., lectin pathway) or antibodies (i.e., classical pathway). The classical pathway requires the formation of antigen-antibody complexes for its activation (it is a specific immune response). On the other hand, Toll-like Receptors (TLRs) are molecular receptors that recognize viral and bacterial products (i.e., pathogen-associated molecular patterns or PAMPs), which is a key defense mechanism from the innate immune system response.

10 differences between animal cells and plant cells
Answer:
Following are the difference to the given question:
Explanation:
Plant cells have a wall of a cell, while cells of animals wouldn't. Cell membranes offer plants support and shape.Chloroplasts in plant cells do not occur, however, in animal cells. Chloroplasts allow plants can grow things via photosynthesizing.Plant cells typically get a vacuole(s) that is one or even more big, whereas animal cells are vacuous, whether any.Large vesicles assist shape the plant and enable food and water to be store for future use.In animal cells, the storing function takes a smaller part and the vacuoles, therefore, are smaller.A plant cell is square in its structural way and an animal cell is often spherical and irregular.The cell of a plant has a vesicle in its big form which is significantly smaller than the plant cell, as well as the animal cell was the or more vacuoles. In general, a vacuole is a storage area for the cells to store water.There is no chloroplast inside the animal cell. Chloroplast is a plant cell that produces photosynthesis from its food. The plants have a green color.The nucleus is located throughout the cell of the plant on the other edge of the peripheral cytoplasm, while the nucleus is in the animal's core.Plant cells store food of starch while animal cells store food of glucose.The mitochondria in the plant are fewer and also have tube cristae, whereas the animal cells have grown in various.The nuclei (the structure inside a cell that contains DNA) of the cheek cells have been stained using a special dye so that they appear purple. What shape are they
Answer: Oval.
Explanation:
The nucleus of a cell is a membranous structure normally found in the center of eukaryotic cells and is where most of the cellular genetic material is found, organized in DNA molecules (deoxyribonucleic acid) associated with proteins such as histones, which make up the chromosomes.
The function of the nucleus is to maintain the integrity of the genes in the DNA and to regulate gene expression to control cellular activities. It then controls when DNA is transcribed into RNA (ribonucleic acid) and when it is exported to the cytoplasm to be translated into proteins.
The nucleus is composed of a nuclear envelope consisting of a double membrane that surrounds it, as well as pores that allow the passage of RNA for the regulation of gene expression.
The cells of the inner cheek are classified as non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium. An epithelium is a tissue made up of joined cells that line the outer surface of the body and inner organs. Squamous cells are flat, scale-like, whereas stratified cells are arranged in multiple layers. Non-keratinized means that the cells constitute soft tissue found in the moist parts of our body, such as the mouth, stomach, among others. In a normal healthy cell, the nucleus is uniformly stained, oval in shape and smaller in relation to the cytoplasm.

Dominic made the table below to organize his notes about mixtures. A 1-column table. The first column labeled properties of mixtures has entries has no set composition, must have more than one state of matter, must have more than one substance. What mistake did Dominic make? The title should read “Properties of Solutions” because some mixtures do not have all of the properties listed. There is a definite recipe to make each mixture, so the composition of a mixture is set. Although it is possible to have more than one state, it is also possible to have only one state. A single substance can be used to make a mixture if the substance is composed of more than one element.

Explanation:
During cellular respiration, the first CO2 is generated during _____ and the remaining carbons are given off as CO2 during _____.
Answer:
Glycolysis and Krebs cycle.
Explanation:
During cellular respiration, the first carbondioxide gas is generated during glycolysis while the remaining carbons are given off as carbondioxide during Krebs cycle. During the process of glycolysis in cellular respiration, glucose is oxidized forming carbondioxide and water whereas during the Krebs cycle, the two carbon atoms of acetyl-CoA are released and each turns into a carbondioxide molecule.

Answer:
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
The plants are grouped formally into 12 phyla (phylum plural) and are collected in four groupings. These four groupings are based on the history of the evolution of important plant characteristics:
Nonvascular plants evolved earliest. They are distinct from the algae because they preserve the embryo inside of the reproductive structure after fertilization. There is no vascular tissue, xylem, and phloem for these plants to convey nutrients, water, and food. For example, moose, liverwort, and hornworts. These plants do not grow very high without vascular tissue.Vascular seedless plants have evolved into non-vascular tissue but no seeds. The fern, fern, club moss, and horsetails are examples. These plants could grow larger with vascular tissue.Gymnosperms have evolved into seeds but have no blooms. For example, redwood, fir, and cypress trees. Gymnosperms. Gymnos in Greek means "naked"; the gymnosperm seeds are bare, not floral.Flowers or angiosperms have developed into vascular tissue, seeds, and flowers. Angiosperm for example includes magnolia, roses, tulips, and tomatoes.Answer:
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
Many antibiotics work by preventing the proper synthesis of the peptidoglycan cell wall. These antibiotics are most likely to be effective against what types of bacteria
Answer: Gram-positive bacteria.
Explanation:
Gram-positive bacteria are those bacteria that stain dark blue or violet by Gram staining. This is due to the structure of the cell envelope, since they possess a cell wall composed of a thick layer of peptidoglycan, which surrounds the previous one. The cell wall is attached to the cytoplasmic membrane by lipoteichoic acid molecules. The peptidoglycan layer confers high resistance to these bacteria and is responsible for retaining the stain during Gram staining. Unlike gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative bacteria have a second lipid membrane outside the cell wall and a single peptidoglycan layer.
An antibiotic is a chemical substance produced by a living being or synthetically derived, which kills or prevents the growth of certain classes of sensitive microorganisms, such as bacteria. An antibiotic could be bacteriostatic if it prevents the growth of bacteria or bactericidal if it destroys them.
Antibiotics usually attack cell walls, such as β-lactams that act on the peptide chains of the bacterial cell wall. That is, they act by inhibiting peptidoglycan synthesis. This is why gram-positive bacteria are susceptible to certain types of antibiotics because they possess a large amount of peptidoglycan.

under the classification
Why do biologists classify
Answer:
Biologists classify organisms because:
Classification allows us to understand diversity better. It helps in the identification of living organisms as well as in understanding the diversity of living organisms. Classification helps us to learn about different kinds of plants and animals, their features, similarities and differences. It enables us to understand how complex organisms develop from simpler organisms. They are grouped under different categories to understand and study the features, similarities and differences between different living organisms. It is essential to understand the inter-relationships among the different groups of organisms. Classification forms a base for the development of other biological sciences.What was spidermans mutagen ?

What term describes the organisms that obtain energy from dead organic matter and aid nutrient cycling
Answer:
Decomposers.
Explanation:
Decomposers are the organisms that obtain energy from dead organic matter and help in nutrient cycling. The example of such type of organisms are bacteria and fungi. These organisms feed on the dead bodies of plant and animals. It perform two function i.e. clean the environment by removing the dead body through feeding on it and add nutrients in the soil which helps the plants to grow more efficiently.
A diagram shows a potato producing new tubers. Buds on the parent plant grow into stems that grow downwards called stolons. The end of each stolon develop in to new tuber.
1) Give two pieces of evidence which show that this is an asexual method of reproduction.
2) Explain why all the new tubers will be genetically identical.
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Evidence that shows that the illustration is an asexual method of reproduction:
1. New tubers were produced without any signs of flowering or fertilization
2. Parent plant was produced from a vegetative part ( a tuber).
All the new tubers would be genetically identical because they were produced without fertilization. They all developed from the division of some of the vegetative cells (mitosis) of the parent plant. Hence, they are not only genetically identical with themselves but also with the old tuber that produced the parent plant.
