The Serengeti region of Africa contains a population of cheetahs and a population of lions studies have shown that the cheetah p

opulation has very low genetic diversity, while the genetic diversity of the lion population is quite high. The cheetah population is also much smaller than the lion population both populations are vulnerable to infection with a particular virus that can be fatal in both species what is most likely the outcome if both populations are infected with this virus?

High genetic diversity and a large population can protect the lion population from being wiped out completely.  Those lions whose genetics offer them protection from the virus may be immune.  The small genetic diversity and low population of the cheetahs could leave the cheetah population with only a handful of immune individuals.

schepotkina [342]

Carbon dioxide (chemical formula CO2) is a colorless and odorless gas that is vital to life on Earth. This naturally occurring chemical compound is made up of a carbon atom contently double bonded to two oxygen atoms. Carbon dioxide exists in Earth's atmosphere as a trace gas at a concentration of about 0.04 percent (400 ppm) by volume.Natural sources include volcanoes, hot springs and geysers, and it is freed from carbonate rocks by dissolution in water and acids. Because carbon dioxide is soluble in water, it occurs naturally in groundwater, rivers and lakes, in ice caps and glaciers and also in seawater. It is present in deposits of petroleum and natural gas.

No muscle contraction will be observed.

<h3>What is the effect of calcium concentration on muscle contraction?</h3>

The concentration of calcium ions in the muscle cells help in contraction and relaxation of muscles fibers.

Release of calcium ions initiate muscle contraction.

Therefore, there will be no contraction of muscle if calcium ions are not transported out from the sarcoplasm.
