If r-organisms reproduce at such a high rate, why don’t they usually reach their carrying capacity? If an r-population is moved

into an environment where it has no predators and it is left there for a very long period of time, what might eventually happen to the population’s reproduction strategy?

R-organisms are usually bellow carrying capacity (<span>the maximum size of some population that can survive in the given environment)</span>. Those organisms are small and produce a great number of offspring. However, their life expectancy is short and many individuals die within a short time. Because of the high rate of death, they do not live long enough to reach their carrying capacity. Their life span is short, so even if predators were removed from the population, it would not be expected they will reach their carrying capacity.

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Mushrooms with gills, typically available in supermarkets, have meiotically produced spores located in or on BASIDIA and belong to the phylum BASIDIOMYCOTA.

Explanation:

Mushrooms are fruiting bodies of certain fungi that belongs yo the phylum BASIDIOMYCOTA. They are incapable of producing their own foods( because of lack of chlorophyl) therefore are saprophytic in nature. It derives its nutrients for growth from metabolizing non living organic matter.The structure that you normally see above the ground is the part of the mushroom that is producing and dispersing spores which is located at the BASIDIA.

Mushroom are used for different purposes:

- the edible species are useful in cooking since it provides vitamin D to the diet.

- it's extracts can be used for medical purposes.

Compare and contrast what happens in mitosis and meiosis and discuss the importance of each process to a living organism.
Semenov [28]

In mitosis, the first stage is prophase. The nucleolus disappears and the two centrosomes begin to form the mitotic spindle. The spindle xtends between two opposite poles f the cell. Next is the metaphase. The centromeres of the chromatid pairs align at the center of the miotic spindle. Then anaphase, the centromeres will split that separates the chromatid pair. They are now called chromosomes. The last phase is the telophase. The chromosomes will then form a thread-like chromatin and for ache envelope, a nucleoli appears. <span>The type of cell division that produces gametes with half the normal chromosome number is the meiosis. Meiosis is the type of cell division used in sexual reproduction. It will occur in the testes and ovaries.</span>

taurus [48]

Answer:

of the low pH of the vagina.

Explanation:

The pH of the vagina is maintained at highly acidic levels to prevent the germ buildup. The range of vaginal pH is around 3.8 to 4.5. The very low pH of the vagina creates a hostile environment for sperms and most of the sperms are killed as they enter the vagina due to the acidic pH.

Apart from supplementing the sperms with energy, cervical mucus serves to protect the sperms from the hostile conditions of the vagina. The cervical mucus has an alkaline pH at or near the ovulation to protect sperms from acidic pH of the vagina and to facilitate fertilization.
