What happens to a population of predators, perhaps a pride of lions, if their prey, say the gazelle population, in their area wa

s to suddenly decline? How would this affect the pride? How would the pride have to survive? Provide a possibility of how the change to the ecosystem would affect the predator populatio?

Explanation:

1. Since the Lions are the predator and Gazelles are the prey therefore a predator-prey relationship exists between them. The predator-prey relation is also associated with the food chain in an ecosystem. If the number of prey is reduced then there are chances that the number of a predator will also be reduced but

2. The Lion is not just the predator of Gazelle but other animals also like deer therefore they can shift their resource of food from gazelles to another organism.

3.The change of the ecosystem will change the population of the predator as the population are adapted to grow in a particular ecosystem and change of population could reduce the population of a predator.

The frequency <em>p</em> of the yellow (A) allele is  <em>p</em>= 0.3

The frequency <em>q</em> of the blue (a) allele is  <em>q= </em><em>0.7</em>

Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium,  states that allele and genotype frequencies in a population will remain constant from generation to generation. Equilibrium is reached in the absence of selection, mutation, genetic drift and other forces and allele frequencies p and q are constant between generations. In the simplest case of a single locus with two alleles denoted A and a with frequencies f(A) = p and f(a) = q, the expected genotype frequencies under random mating are f(AA) = p² for the AA homozygotes, f(aa) = q² for the aa homozygotes, and f(Aa) = 2pq for the heterozygotes.  

p²+2*p*q+q²= 1       p+q= 1     q= 1-p

yellow (p²)= 9%= 0.09               p= √0.09= 0.3

green (2*p*q)= 42%= 0.42        

blue (q²)=49%= 0.49                q=1-0.3= 0.7 <em>or</em> q= √0.49= 0.7

Why does interphase take so long/6265000/ad04de71?utm_source=registration
erik [133]
Interphase is the period of the cell cycle where the cell is actually growing, developing, and carrying out cellular processes. Essentially, interphase is when the cell is busy being a cell. It grows, synthesizes proteins, replicates its DNA, and so on and so forth. 

<span>Mitosis is only the small portion of the cell cycle when it is dividing into two new cells. The rest of the time (interphase), the cell is performing its various functions.</span>

I am a multicellular organism. I am heterotrophic and rely on oxygen to metabolize my food. I belong to Kingdom
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Kingdom Animalia

Explanation:

Kingdom Animalia is one of the seven kingdoms living organisms are classified into. The Kingdom contains organisms called ANIMALS. They are eukaryotic i.e. possess a membrane-bound nucleus. Animals are heterotrophic i.e. they rely on other organisms for their source of energy (food).

In order to break down this food via metabolism, animals need oxygen to do so. This process is called respiration, and it yields energy in form of ATP, which is used by their cells to carry out cellular functions. Therefore, a heterotrophic multicellular organism that relies on oxygen to metabolize its food belongs to KINGDOM ANIMALIA
