What is your opinion of the balance of nature hypothesis? Would the deer on the island be better off, worse off, or about the sa

An example of how it wouldn't help the deer population on the island is this: The rapid community growth of the deer would propose more food is required. However, an island would only have so much green, so they would eventually die out. Any population of wild herd animals is declining to be sufficiently off with a top line predator. There are a few examples I can point out. The natural balance is important. Predators like wolves can have a far-reaching influence behind disease and population control which are very important. I would say yes because they would possess fewer predators and a protected area to live.

I think they would be worse of without wolves because wolves act as a natural selective pressure which favours the survival of the strongest deers. That is one thing, the second thing is that without a natural predator, the deer would probably reproduce in vast numbers which would reduce the amount of resources available for all of the deer on an island, which would eventually lead to their decay.

Which one of the following is a major difference between the circulatory systems of earthworms and fish?
labwork [276]
<span>a. Fish have a single central heart; earthworms have several hearts.

</span>
Multi cellular organisms are made up of billions of cells each specialized to a unique role and these cells are organized into structural and functional units such as tissues and organs.
For each cell and organ to function optimally, it requires oxygen and nutrients and needs carbon dioxide and  metabolic waste taken away  in a  continuous, never ending  process.
<span>A mechanism  is needed to accomplish the important function of transporting the relevant materials to and from the cell. The circulatory system fits this  bill splendidly. It is a specialized organ system which allows blood  and lymph to flow through the entire body carrying nutrients such as glucose, amino acids and electrolytes as well as oxygen to each cell, at the same time carting away carbon dioxide and all sorts of metabolic waste over to excretory organs  to be expelled from the body.

How many chambers does the heart contain?<br> A. 3 <br> B. 4 <br> C. 5 <br> D. 6
Wittaler [7]
<span>The heart contains four chambers: upper left atria, upper right atria, lower left ventricle and the lower right ventricle. Oftentimes, the right atria and right ventricle are together referred to as the "right heart" and the left atria and left ventricle are referred to as the "left heart", however there are still four separate chambers.</span>

Last week, you looked at both animal &amp; plant cells. Both of these cells were ______. This week, you'll be looking at a diffe
Inga [223]

Answer:

"Last week, you looked at both animal & plant cells. Both of these cells were diploid somatic eukaryotic. This week, you'll be looking at a different, but very important, type of cell: sexual cells. Two gametes, one from a female & one from a male, merge during the process of fecundation/fertilization to form a zygote. All in the organism will develop from this initial diploid cell".

Explanation:  

There are two principal types of cells in the organism: Somatic cells that can not form any gametes, and germ cells that are in charge of gamete production. Both somatic cells and germinal cells will end their cycle dividing and becoming two daughter cells with the same genetic dotation after mitosis.

Somatic cells are any cell in the body excepting from sperm and egg cells. These somatic cells are diploid, they contain two chromosomes sets, each one inherited from each parental. Mutations in somatic cells affect the individual but the progeny does not inherit them. In this sense, these cells do not contribute to anything to inheritance terms through genetics.

Germ cells are the reproductive diploid cells, and the sexual organs (testes and ovaries) are the ones that produce them. These cells might suffer mitosis to form more sexual cells, and then a few of them suffer meiosis giving place to haploid gametes called sperm and egg cells through the gametogenesis process. Each germ cell produces 4 haploid gametes after meiosis.  

Gametes´destiny is to merge in the process of fecundation, during which a new diploid cell called zygote emerges through fertilization. The zygote is a complete cell from the structural point of view that suffer successive mitosis to form the new organism.
