The mutations that made snake venom deadlier over time had a positive impact on those snakes. How might those mutations have had

a negative impact on other organisms in that environment?
Biology

Burka [1]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Im not 100% sure, but I think that because the snake venom gets stronger, other species that have adapted to the weaker venom have a harder time fighting it. For example, the honey badger can fight of snake venom with its very thick skin and ability to sleep it off. However, if the snake venom got stronger/deadlier, the honey badger would have a much harder time fighting it, and might die.

What is biomagnification? anyone up?​
lord [1]

Answer:

The phenomenon through which certain pollutants (harmful chemicals) get accumulated in tissues of organisms at different trophic levels in increasing concentrations along the food chain, is called Biomagnification.

Explanation:

1)Suppose, DDT is being used in a farmland.

2)There's a water body nearby the farmland and the water is contaminated with the DDT(let's say the quantity: 0.003 ppb).

3)Now the aquatic organisms (Zooplankton) which consume this water also consuming the DDT also.(0.04 ppm)

4)Next these Zooplanktons are consumed by small fishes. (0.5 ppm)

5)These small fishes are then consumed by Large fishes. (2 ppm)

6)These Large Fishes are consumed by Humans or Birds afterwards. (25 ppm)

7) So at each step DDT is also getting accumulated and at each successive trophic level the quantity of Accumulated DDT gets magnified as the organisms on higher trophic levels consume more biomass than the previous ones. This is a classical example of Biomagnification.

1. What type of response will a red blood cell have when placed in a hypertonic solution?
GalinKa [24]
Hypertonic solution means the solution with a lower water potential than the cell cytoplasm, such as salt water.

When the red blood cell is put into it, since the cell has a higher water potential than the solution, water molecules will flow from the cell back into the water due to osmosis.

Osmosis is always where water molecules flow from a region of higher water potential to lower, through a semi permeable membrane (Whcih is the red blood cell membrane in this case.)

Since water flowed out of the cell, the cell lose water and shrinks.

Hypotonic solution is where the solution that has a higher water potential than the cell cytoplasm.

So when the red blood cell is put in that solution, the water will flow from the solution into the cell this time, by osmosis.

The red blood cell will then gain so much water that the cell membrane cannot hold all and therefore burst.

When a oligopoly exists, how many producers dominate the market
balandron [24]
In an oligopoly type of market, there are only few producers whom dominate the market. This is the market type wherein there are only small number of firms that control the majority of the market share. The opposite to Perfect Competition, wherein there are unlimited number of producers. In an oligopoly, since there are only a few numbers competitors, each firm is likely to be aware of each other's action.
