Quorum sensing is triggered to begin when ___________.

Biology
1 answer:
Lilit [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Quorum sensing is triggered to begin when<u> a sufficient number of bacteria are present .</u>

Explanation:

Quorum sensing -

Quorum sensing is the ability to detect and to respond to the cell population density by the process of gene regulation . Quorum sensing bacteria releases some chemical signal molecules called the autoinducers , that increases the concentration as the function of the cell density .

The detection of the minimum threshold concentration of an autoinducer leads to the alteration in the gene expression .

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Larger habitats support populations with higher carrying capacities. Higher quality habitats support populations with higher carrying capacities. There is no difference in population growth rate between large and small habitats. Some major threats to biodiversity are: Habitat destruction/Deforestation, Introduced and invasive species, Genetic pollution, Over exploitation, Hybridization, Climate change, Diseases, Human overpopulation. If abiotic or biotic factors change, the carrying capacity changes as well. Natural disasters can destroy resources in an ecosystem. If resources are destroyed, the ecosystem will not be able to support a large population. This causes the carrying capacity to decrease.  

Carrying capacity could be reduced if each individual within the species consumed less from the environment. Think about humans: if every human needs a four car garage and a large house, the planet can sustain fewer humans than if each human lived in a studio apartment and traveled using a bicycle. It would take 1.75 Earths to sustain our current population. If current trends continue, we will reach 3 Earths by the year 2050. It is beyond dispute that the modern industrial world has been able to temporarily expand Earth's carrying capacity for our species. As Nordhaus points out, population has grown dramatically (from less than a billion in 1800 to 7.6 billion today), and so has per capita consumption. Historically, habitat and land use change have had the biggest impact on biodiversity in all ecosystems, but climate change and pollution are projected to increasingly affect all aspects of biodiversity. Sustainable agriculture practices support integrating biodiversity in various ways including in terms of diversity of crops, traditional agriculture techniques to control pests and increase productivity as well as ensuring that farmed land is made up of a diverse mix of grazing land, crop land, orchards, wetlands and more.

The inability of the body to adequately circulate blood and oxygen to the body's cells is known as
Arada [10]
Circulation of the blood is crucial in the body since it helps in supply of nutrients and oxygen to all parts of the body. It is these nutrients and oxygen that are key in the activities of a cell or a tissue without which the cells wont efficiently carry out their functions.The inability of the body to supply blood and oxygen to the body cells as required is known as hyperfusion. Hyperfusion is caused by inadequate perfusion of the body tissues and thus resulting to inefficient supply of nutrients and oxygen gas to the body cells and tissues.
