Answer:

None of the options provided is correct but some are close

Explanation:

One of the ways in which a cell maintain homeostasis is by regulating what goes in and out of the cell through the cell membrane (which is a semi-permeable barrier). The amount of water is highly regulated by the cell in this case so as to regulate osmosis (movement of water molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration). Other substances regulated are oxygen and carbon dioxide.

NOTE: The cell <u>does not create water molecules neither does it use carbon dioxide to maintain homeostasis</u>, it rather regulates these two compounds.

Bacteria are organisms that reproduce asexually. Asexual reproduction can
madreJ [45]

Answer:

Since all forms of bacteria are prokaryotic and in turn unicellular their offspring don’t have to undergo a long period of gestation and growth prior to relative maturity. Whereas any organism (for the most part) in the animila kingdom do and any animal also require a mate. So one major benefit of bacteria being capable of asexual reproduction is they don’t require a mate to reproduce hence the name ASEXUAL. Also, another benefit I vaguely/briefly mentioned is the ability to reproduce at a faster rate than many if not all eukaryotic organisms. For example E.coli a type of bacteria can reproduce in as little as 20 minutes if I recall correctly.

If the bald eagle was removed from this food web, what effect would this have on the population of the other species?
den301095 [7]

Answer:

C) The benthic invertebrates would decrease in population size because they are eaten by the sea ducks and the phytoplankton would increase in population size.

Explanation:

The benthic invertebrates are eaten by sea ducks. Sea ducks are eaten by bald eagles. If the bald eagle was removed, there would be more sea ducks because they will have no more predators. Since there are more sea ducks, they will need to eat more food, like benthic invertebrates. The benthic invertebrates would have a lower population because the sea ducks eat more of them.

Why not the other answers:

A) The bivalves would not increase in population size. Without the bald eagle preying on sea ducks, there would be more sea ducks, who need to eat more food, such as eating more bivalves.

The phytoplankton would not decrease. With sea ducks eating more food, more benthic invertebrates are eaten. There would be less benthic invertebrates to eat phytoplankton.

B) Tundra swans were never eaten by bald eagles. There is no arrow connecting them.

D) Wading birds were never eaten by ospreys. There is no arrow connecting them.
