The answer is the option A. removing plants from hillsides eliminates the root structures that anchor soil. Indeed the roots of trees, further to anchor the tress to the floor, serve as a net to which the soil attaches preventing the soil of been washed and removed by rainstorms

Did the Florida Panther become endangered because of natural selection, genetic drift, or gene flow?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

ALL OF THE ABOVE

Explanation:

Genetic Drift are the changes in allele frequency of a population that result from RANDOM survival or reproduction of individuals with certain characteristics.  Survival or reproduction of those individuals in the face of some environmental change is a matter of LUCK or CHANCE, not because of their phenotype or genotype.

While in Natural selection, the environmental events that affect a population are likely random, but the survival or reproduction of the individuals depends on their phenotypes and genotypes.

Meanwhile, Gene flow is the movement of genes into or out of a population. Low gen flow can lead to low genetic diversity.

Low population which can cause low genetic diversity, poor habitat conditions and habitat loss, road deaths, and commercial development in panther range are constant threats to the Florida Panther's survival.

All these causes are related and therefore affects the Florida Panther.

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

C) Primary, tertiary and quaternary levels of protein structure

Explanation:

Primary structure; Covalent bond is present in form of peptide bond in the primary structuture of proteins. The amino acids are held together in the polypeptide chain by peptide bond.

Tertiary structure; Disulfide bonds are present between cysteine amino acids, that keeps the parts of polypeptide chain strongly attached to one another.

Quaternary structure; The Quaternary structure of protein is held together by hydrophobic interaction and disulfide bonds.
