Answer:

The presence of predators, such as grey wolves, is required to keep the elk population in check. If the population of elk is allowed to grow unchecked, the vegetation would eventually start disappearing, followed by the disappearance of the elk.

Elk obviously need the vegetation they eat to be abundant and unlike believed in the past they need to be prayed on by predators. Without predators, the elk overpopulate and eat all of the plants and cause other animals like beavers to die off.

Proton pumps embedded in the cell membrane use ATP to move hydrogen ions across the membrane. Which of the following best descri
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Although protons resemble other positive ions such as Na+ and K+ in their movement across membranes, in some respects they are unique. Hydrogen atoms are by far the most abundant type of atom in living organisms; they are plentiful not only in all carbon-containing biological molecules, but also in the water molecules that surround them. The protons in water are highly mobile, flickering through the hydrogen-bonded network of water molecules by rapidly dissociating from one water molecule to associate with its neighbor, Protons are thought to move across a protein pump embedded in a lipid bilayer in a similar way: they transfer from one amino acid side chain to another, following a special channel through the protein.

How high can creatinine and bun levels go before death?
wel
Creatinine is a by-product of muscular metabolism. In the natural and normal scheme of things, this substance or waste product can be eliminated from the body. A high-serum creatinine level may cause kidney damage. In relation to the above question as to how high can creatinine levels go before death, it must be noted that kidneys have strong compensatory ability and by that as long as its still 50 percent functional, creatinine level won't be that high. Which leads us to a conclusion that, the lesser the kidney function level is, the higher the creatinine level.

On the other hand for the blood urea nitrogen (BUN) is the most stable blood constituent following death as it reaches antemortem (before death) levels and even after moderate decomposition.

Therefore, as long as the kidneys are functional, regardless of other factors such as the patient's condition/ diagnosis, these blood constituents are nearly normal.

What is the difference between an eco region and an ecosystem?
KiRa [710]

Both biome and <span>ecoregion </span>are ecological terms. Biome refers to a major regional group of plant and animal communities adapted to the natural environment. Biome can be of two types: terrestrial(land) andaquatic(water). <span>Ecoregion, </span>which is an abbreviated form of ''ecological region', refers to a smaller class. Each <span>biome </span>consists of severalecoregions, an ecoregion(also called bioregion) covering a realm of land/water having geographically distinctive communities, sharing the same envoronmental conditions and ecological dynamics.

Yes, an ecoregion does consist of different ecologically distinctive communities and species.
