The correct answer is A


Population density is an important parameter in ecology, livestock management and human demographic. When we calculate the number of individuals on a set area (meters, miles, kilometers) it can give us valuable information about the population dynamics and help us in spatial planning and conservational efforts.

In our example, there are 4500 bison living on 3472 square miles.

If we want to calculate the population density, or in other words, how many bison are there per one square mile we should divide the number of bison with the miles

\frac{number of bison}{size of the area} = population density\\\frac{4500}{3472} = 1,3

Answer:

The answer is : Carbon catabolite repression

Explanation:

Carbon catabolite repression is a vital part of the global control system of the bacteria and other microorganisms. It allows the microorganisms to quickly adapt to the preferred energy and carbon source first. This is generally achieved by the inhibiting the synthesis of the enzymes that are involved in the catabolism of other carbon sources.

This effect was first shown to be initiated by glucose. Therefore, the carbon catabolite repression is also known as glucose effect.

Distinguish between directional, stabilizing, and disruptive selection. Give examples.
Pepsi [2]
Distribution of phenotypes within a population may be impacted by different types of natural selection. These types of selection include;
Directional selection involves a change in the environment shifts of phenotypes observed. Example is the giraffe neck-length, where the length got longer and longer over time to reach the leaves at the top of trees.
Stabilizing selection , this is a selection where an average phenotype is favored. example is number of eggs laid by birds such that too many eggs will be a waste of energy because some chicks would starve.
Disruptive selection is a selection where individuals with an average value of a trait are affected most while those with values below average are affected least. Example small individuals are capable of hiding from predators while big individuals can not fit in the hiding place but instead will fight with predators.
