Which of the following statements is consistent with the principle of competitive exclusion?

Biology
1 answer:
Marina CMI [18]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

D) Even a slight reproductive advantage will eventually lead to the elimination of the less well adapted of two competing species.

Explanation:

The competitive exclusion describes relationship between two species that compete for the limiting sources, and cannot coexist. It is enough for one species to have slightly advantage to be dominant over the other. As a consequence, other species (the weaker one) will be extincted (shift to a different ecological niche).

Surface area is an important factor in limiting cell growth because
julia-pushkina [17]

Surface area is an important factor in limiting cell growth because

a. the cell can burst if the membrane becomes too large.

b. materials cannot enter the cell if the surface is too large.

c. the cell may become too large to take in enough food and to remove enough wastes.

d. waste products cannot leave the cell if the cell is too small.

Answer:

c. the cell may become too large to take in enough food and to remove enough wastes.

Explanation:

The exchange of substances with surroundings is done by cells by the process of diffusion. The rate of diffusion of substances requires the presence of a higher surface area than volume. As the cells become larger, their surface area is reduced with respect to the volume. Therefore, larger cells can not support the diffusion of substances in and out as required for its proper functioning. If cells are allowed to grow continuously, they will not be able to intake the requires materials such as food and to release the waste outside.

Can someone please help with this and explain! I will mark brainliest!!!

Answer:

D       Flow of protons across an electrochemical gradient

Explanation:

The chloroplast adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase uses the electrochemical proton gradient generated by photosynthesis to produce ATP, the energy currency of all cells. Protons conducted through the membrane-embedded Fo motor drive ATP synthesis in the F1 head by rotary catalysis.

In chloroplasts, photosynthetic electron transport generates a proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane which then drives ATP synthesis via ATP synthase.

The light-induced electron transfer in photosynthesis drives protons into the thylakoid lumen. The excess protons flow out of the lumen through ATP synthase to generate ATP in the stroma.

Majority of ATP is produced by OXIDATION PHOSPHORYLATION. The generation of ATP by oxidation phosphorylation differs from the way ATP is produced during glycolysis.

Electrons are passed from one member of the transport chain to another in a series of redox reactions. Energy released in these reactions is captured as a proton gradient, which is then used to make ATP in a process called chemiosmosis.
