Biology
1 answer:
finlep [7]3 years ago
4 0

The correct answer is - predator species in a community.

In the terrestrial ecosystems, a very good and usually sure predictor of the biodiversity is the existence of a predator species. The more predator species there are, the higher the biodiversity, and vice versa, the less predator species, the lesser the biodiversity.

The reason why the predators are such a good predictor of the biodiversity is that they are the species that are on the top of the food chain. That means that the predators are dependent for their survival on all the other species bellow them in the food chain, which is pretty much all species apart from themselves.

If a predator is present, than there has to be pray. If there's pray, omnivores and herbivores, than there has to be plants. All of the organisms are connected to one another, and the ones on the top of the food chain are the most dependent on the others, thus their existence usually means a healthy ecosystem with higher biodiversity.

Answer:

D

Explanation:

you can't take one type of cell and create a brand new one. This gets rid of C

the only cell that increases in size is fat cells, this gets rid of A

Mitosis is for all cells, except sex cells. Daughter cells relate more to sex cells than other cells. Sex cells go through meiosis to create daughter cells. This also gets copies DNA. This gets rid of B

Basically: Mitosis is how we make new cells from the original cell (Think Zygote cell)

what do biologists study changes in amino acid sequence when trying to determine causes of genetic variation?
baherus [9]

Answer:

reason for studying human genetics is that it gives us a powerful tool for understanding and describing human evolution. At one time, data from physical anthropology (including information about skin color, body build, and facial traits) were the only source of information available to scholars interested in tracing human evolutionary history. Today, however, researchers have a wealth of genetic data, including molecular data, to call upon in their work.

D is the correct answer :).

The four inner planets have slower orbits, slower spin, no rings, and they are made of rock and metal. The four outer planets have faster orbits and spins, a composition of gases and liquids, numerous moons, and rings. The outer planets are made of hydrogen and helium, so they are called gas giants.
