Explain why the cane toad was a failure as a biological control method in Australia.
kakasveta [241]
The cane toad was a failure as a biological control method in Australia because:
-The greyback beetle it was supposed to be eating fed at the top of the sugarcane stalks (which were 6-8 meters in height). Cane toads cannot fly or climb and therefore couldnt feed on the beetles.
-The beetles were out during the daytime, and cane toads feed at night.
-The two species are not seasonally compatible (aren't in the same place at the same time of year).
-The toads needed moist conditions to survive, and so moved away from where they were supposed to be.
-The cane toad eats many native species and often out-competes native species for food and breeding sites, leading to the decline of natives.
-Breeding habits made the cane toads a very invasive species.

Differentiate between persistent and latent animal virus infections.
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The difference between both infections is that viral infections where the virus is latent, this virus once infected is protected in the nerves of the animal organism, as for example in humans the herpes family viruses (HSV1) are housed in ganglionic terminals such as the trigeminal ganglion or the V cranial nerve, so that in a situation of immunodepression, reinfect the individual again, causing him to be unable to remove the virus from his body.

On the other hand, persistent infections diseases are the threats that persist because the microorganism cannot be eliminated, either because it is very complex, or the cure does not exist, or the correct treatment is not carried out. Furthermore, it is necessary to consider that some microorganisms mutate becoming resistant to these drugs and thus persist longer in the body until they are eliminated.

Explanation:

In short, latency refers to the fact that the individual lives with the virus for life, and persistence is that it is possible to eliminate it over a long period of time since the infectious microorganism is considered very difficult.

How can competitive and noncompetitive inhibition be distinguished in terms of KM?
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c. "The apparent value of KM increases with a competitive inhibitor, while it remains unchanged with a noncompetitive inhibitor".

Explanation:

The KM value in an enzymatic reaction is defined as the substrate concentration at which the half of the enzyme molecules are binding with the substrate. A way to distinguish between a competitive and noncompetitive inhibition is that the apparent value of KM increases with a competitive inhibitor, while it remains unchanged with a noncompetitive inhibitor. A competitive inhibitor would make that a higher concentration of substrate is needed, while a noncompetitive inhibitor does not change KM since the inhibitor binds to a site of the enzyme different from the active site.
