Explanation:
A scientist studied a population of birds for 10 years. During that time, the population was never fewer than 30 birds and never more than 50. Her data showed that over half of the birds born did not survive to reproduce, because of competition for food and predation. She noticed that In a single generation, about 90% of the birds that were born lived to reproduce, and the population increased to 90. Which inference(s) about this population might be true
Answer:
A particular population limiting factor or factors must have been removed
Explanation:
The population of the birds must have been kept between 30 and 50 individuals by population limiting factors such as the presence of predators within the community or competition for resources such as food or spaces.
For the population to shoot up to 90 all of a sudden, it may be that one or more of the population limiting factors has been removed from the population. It could be that a major predator has been removed from the community or the competition for food/space is now significantly reduced due to more food/space in the community.

What does the thyroid gland, shown in the image below, do?
(Pineal, Hypothalamus,
and Pituitary glands)
Thyroid
Thymus
Adrenal
Pancreas
Ovaries (2)
Tostos (2)
A. Releases a hormone if blood calcium levels get too high
B. Releases hormones to regulate the endocrine system
C. Regulates the pituitary gland
D. Releases insulin if blood sugar levels get too high
The thyroid gland secretes the thyroid hormones that releases a hormone if blood calcium levels get too high and in this way regulats the calcium level in the blood that is present in option A.
The thyroid gland plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism, which is the process by which the body converts food into energy. Metabolism is a complex process that involves various chemical reactions that take place within the body's cells. The thyroid hormones T4 and T3 are responsible for regulating many aspects of metabolism such as thyroid hormones increase BMR, which means that the body burns more calories even when one is not doing any physical activity.

Explain the presence of starch in the parts of a plant that do NOT contain chlorophyll.
Answer:
In the leaf, excess glucose is rapidly converted to starch, so we test leaves for starch to show that photosynthesis has happened, rather than testing for glucose. We often indicate that light and chlorophyll are required for the process by adding them to the equation near the arrow.
Scientists found members of a plant species they did not recognize. They wanted to determine if the unknown species was related to one or more of four known species, A, B, C, and D. The relationship between species can be determined most accurately by comparing the results of gel electrophoresis of the DNA from different species. The chart below represents the results of gel electrophoresis of the DNA from the unknown plant species and the four known species.
Complete question:
Scientists found members of a plant species they did not recognize. They wanted to determine if the unknown species was related to one or more of four known species – A, B, C, D. The relationship between species can be determined by comparing the results of gel electrophoresis of the DNA from different species. The chart below represents the results of gel electrophoresis of the DNA from the unknown plant species and the four known species.
Which two known plant species is the unknown plant species most closely related to?
Answer:
Species C is the most closely related, followed by species D.
Explanation:
Gel electrophoresis technique is used to separate different fragments of DNI, RNA, and other macromolecules or proteins, concerning their size/weight and charge.
Gel electrophoresis of DNI lets us visualize how many different fragments of the molecule are present in a sample and how they differ from each other. The presence of fragments of the same size will be distinguished as a line named band. Each band represents many DNI fragments of similar size placed in the same position. The result of the gel electrophoresis will be different bands in different positions according to their sizes. The biggest ones will not migrate in the gel as much as the smallest ones.
In the exposed example we can assume that the most closely related species is C. The second most similar is species D.
The gel electrophoresis of the DNA from the unknown plant species resulted in five different bands, which means five types of fragments of different sizes.
Four of the five bands expressed by the unknown species coincide with the bands of species C. Species C only lack one band to be exactly the same.Species D coincides in three bands and lack two bands to be exactly the same as the unknown species. Species A only coincides in one band. Species B does not coincide in any band, meaning that this is the most different oneFor a better understanding, look at the attached files, where you will find the chart.
Trastorno alimenticio caracterizado por una gran pérdida de peso, que el propio paciente se provoca y que puede conducir a un estado de inanición.
Answer: Anorexia nerviosa.
Explanation:
La anorexia nerviosa es un trastorno o desorden alimenticio en donde se produce un rechazo de la comida debido a un temor excesivo a subir de peso, llegando a un estado de inanición serio. Entonces, se produce un deterioro en la salud y una debilidad causada por una ingesta insuficiente de nutrientes causando una desnutrición que altera diversas funciones del organismo. Es mas común en mujeres jóvenes o adolescentes aunque se reportan casos en ambos sexos y a cualquier edad. No debe confundirse con otro trastorno llamado simplemente anorexia, que es un síntoma que se caracteriza por una falta de apetito debido a alguna causa orgánica.
Este trastorno puede ocurrir por diversas causas que vienen acompañadas por una distorsión de la imagen corporal propia, en donde la persona considera que debe perder más peso de lo que se considera saludable y normal para su edad y estatura, llegando a estados raquíticos. También hay muchos casos en donde además de una dieta extrema, se realice ejercicio de manera excesiva o que utilicen otros métodos para bajar de peso como el abuso de laxantes u otros medicamentos.
Algunos factores de riesgo para el desarrollo de la anorexia nerviosa pueden ser:

During the relative refractory period, _______. During the relative refractory period, _______. another action potential can be generated provided the stimulus is relatively smaller than the original stimulus. another action potential can be generated provided the stimulus is large enough. the flow of potassium is also depolarizing the neuron. a second action potential cannot be generated, no matter how strong the stimulus.
Answer:
During the relative refractory period, another action potential can be generated provided the stimulus is large enough.
Explanation:
The relative refractory period is the time after an action potential where the sodium channels are transitioning from inactivated channels to closed ones. In other words, voltage-gated Na+ channels have two gates, an external one and an internal one. During repolarization, the outer gate is blocking the entrance, and the internal one is open. So the channel is inactivated. When the inner gate is closed, the Na+ channel is closed.
During the relative refractory period, a second action potential can happen, but the stimulus has to be large enough to do it since the membrane is hyperpolarized, that is to say, the membrane potential is more negative than the resting action potential. The cell needs more Na+ ions to produce the second action potential.

Meiosis in males produces four identical sperm cells.
A. True
B. False
Answer:
B. False
Explanation:
Meiosis in males, not produces four identical sperm cells.
Meiosis is a type of cell division which involves the reduction in chromosomal content to half. The four daughter cells formed in meiosis are not identical. Thus, the given statement is false.
What is Meiosis?Meiosis is a type of cell division in which the number of chromosomes reduces by half than that present in the parent cell and produces four haploid gamete cells. This process is required to produce both male and female gametes- egg and sperm cells for sexual reproduction.
During the telophase II- last phase of meiosis, cell division is incomplete without another round of cytokinesis. Once the cytokinesis is complete there are four daughter cells, each with half a set of chromosomes (haploid) which are different due to the crossing over between chromatids.

Reproduction for dolphins and badgers and people is more complicated because
A. we have to apply for a license before we can reproduce
B. have to find a partner
C. go through the cellular process of MITOSIS to produce sex cells.
Answer:
B. have to find a partner
Explanation:
When two badgers get together and fall in love, a sperm cell from the father which contains a copy of half of his DNA, only half, combines with the egg cell of the mother, which contains half a copy of her DNA. The result is a brand new cell with all the information to divide and grow up into a brand new badger. The new child matures to be similar to our parents, but also unique, because she developed some traits from her mother’s DNA, and some from her father. Her new combination of traits can be passed on to her children, and again.
