Answer: (c) A local wolf population experiences a lethal epidemic of parvovirus.
Explanation:
A limiting factor is one which is capable of limiting the population of the species. It can be a living factor or a non-living factor.
The density dependent limiting factor is a factor which affects the population of a species depending upon the size of the population. There are many density dependent limiting factors such as disease, migration, predation and food.
C is the correct option, this is because of the fact that the epidemic outbreak can spread over to the large number of members of the population. If larger the population size more likely will be the chances of spreading.
Answer:
Explanation:
Autosomal recessive is one of several ways that a trait, disorder, or disease can be passed down through families. An autosomal recessive disorder means two copies of an abnormal gene must be present in order for the disease or trait to develop
B) Photosynthesis The Sun is the ultimate source of all energy in the universe. Plants being the main primary producers or autotrophs, use solar energy to make their own food through photosynthesis, thus converting energy into the organic matter that can be consumed by all organisms. They form the basis of almost all food chains from where consumers derive their food.
The survival of the 2 percent of the population is due to the presence of a gene obtained from other species. This gene must be responsible for developing resistance in the insects, against the insecticide that was used by the farmer. The gene got incorporated in only 2% of the insects and therefore, they survived and rest of them were susceptible to the insecticide and thus, died.
