Keystone predators can maintain species diversity in a community if they  prey on the community's dominant species

Option B is correct.

What is meant by keystone predator?

A keystone species is usually a dominant predator whose removal allows a prey population to explode and often decreases overall diversity. other forms of keystone species are those, like coral or beavers, that significantly alter the habitat around them and thus affect large numbers of other organisms.

Are keystone species always predators?

A keystone species is usually , but not always, a predator. Just some predators can control the distribution and population of large numbers of prey species. the whole concept of keystone species was founded on research surrounding the influence of a marine predator on its environment.

Answer:

Adenina (30%), citosina (15%), guanina (15%) o timina (40%)

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Blood

Connective tissue consists of extracellular matrix and cells. The main function of connective tissue is to bind the other tissues together, provide them support and strength. Blood is one of the liquid connective tissue that does not perform such functions. The presence of liquid extracellular matrix (plasma) and formed elements (blood cells) makes it a connective tissue. It serves in the transport of nutrients, gases, wastes, hormones, etc. It also takes part in immune responses but does not strength or support other body tissues.

If you have a cell with more salt outside the cell, then inside the cell what will happen to the cell?
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The cell would lose the water inside it causing it to die.

Explanation:

Water in cells moves towards the higher concentration of salt so if there is more on the outside the water would move on the outside causing it to die because it needs water. If it was the opposite and there was more salt inside more water would go inside causing the cell to swell and virtually exploding and diluting parts of our body.
