I think that a toxin that was introduced into a food web can kill some species but not others because some may have resistances to the toxin, while others, it may be lethal. Also that it did not affect everyone because as Bioaccumulation has stated if affected one organism but their might not be much biomagnification as in much increase in the correlation between the food chains in that area. i think the cat were like the top animal so the key stone animal of the food chain and also it had no predators.

The newly-hired nurse is monitoring a client for adverse reactions during barbiturate therapy. the nurse preceptor asks what is
Daniel [21]

The right answer is potential drug dependence.

The use of barbiturates was widespread in the first half of the twentieth century.

In the case of chronic abuse a tolerance to barbiturates, a physical and psychological dependence develops very quickly. Tolerance in particular results in a narrowing of the area between the dose needed to achieve the desired effect and the lethal dose. At some point, the required dose becomes greater than the lethal dose, resulting in coma and death without urgent medical management.

What are the advantages to using prokaryotic as host systems for genetic engineering? What are the limitations to genetic engine
ahrayia [7]

Answer and Explanation:

The manipulation of the gene is called genetic engineering. In genetic engineering, fragments of genes are cloned by leading the genes into the host cell. The advantage of using a prokaryotic host system in genetic engineering is that bacterial cells are used to produce commercially significant products. For example, human growth hormone helps to treat dwarfism, and human insulin production, which is used to treat diabetes. The bacterium P.putida is created by genetic engineering, which is used to break down petroleum products. Genetic engineering also carries some potential risks, such as transferring the selected gene into another speice, benefit one species can harm another speice. Therefore genetic engineering must be used in limit in prokaryotes. These limitations are also addressable in single-cell eukaryotic systems. Biologics-based therapeutic medicines such as a vaccine, gene therapies, and cell therapies known as bioproduction are produced. Medicines are so complex that they can only be formed in a living system. Biopharmaceuticals, value-added food, fuels, chemicals, antibiotics, and many other products are produced by bioproduction.

The nurse should respond in a calm way and explain the effect of having to be pregnant. The nurse should respond to client that mothers who are usually pregnant gains weight than their weight before they were pregnant and it is only normal and not unhealthy as this happens and is already normal to happen.
