Answer: True

Explanation:

An ecological niche can be define as the functional role played by the organism in an ecosystem so as to lead it's life cycle, grow, survive and reproduce. Like the resources used by the organism like food source, water source, habitat, type of mating season chosen and others.

In accordance to the competition exclusion principle, when two species or organisms having the same ecological niche, thriving for the same kind of resource, and lives in a same region or ecosystem, then the one which is more superior over the other derives the resource. The other one is excluded from the region by either decline in population, extinction or migration.

Which scenario describes a nonrenewable resources being used for energy?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

The most appropriate answer would be option C.

Nonrenewable resources are the natural resources which are present in a limited amount on the planet.

It is because the rate of their utilization is way too faster than the rate of their formation in nature.

Examples may include coal, gas, petroleum et ctera.

Gas stove utilizes the energy of liquified petroleum gas to heat or cook the food which is a nonrenewable resource.

What would be the best negative control to use when testing for any organic compounds
ra1l [238]

Explanation:

A similar question was asked online, here is the answer it gave:

'“Negative control” is a treatment that by definition is expected not to have any effect (neither positive effect, nor negative effect). “Positive control” is treatment with a well-known chemical that is known to produce the expected effect with the assay that you are studying. Application of an antagonist is not a negative control in your case. “Negative control” is condition that should be treated with the same solutions or buffers as your “treatment” condition, with the only difference that instead of the chemical that you investigate you should add just the solvent that was used to dissolve you chemical in the respective final concentration that you have in the “experimental treatment” condition. For example if your chemical is dissolved in DMSO – than the correct negative control will be to add to the medium/buffer just DMSO in the same final concentration that you reach with your “treatment” condition. One of the reasons of using such negative control is to verify that the solvent is having no effect in your assay. Note that among all treatment conditions (“negative control”, “positive control”, “experimental treatment you are investigating”) the volumes and the composition of the treatments that you are doing should be uniform: always treat with the same volume of medium or buffer, always containing the same concentration of the used solvent (e.g., DMSO). The only difference should be the presence or absence of the defined compound-treatments (agonist, antagonist, the chemical for the experimental investigation etc.).'

My best advice is to use the textbook you have, or use examples of a negative control when testing organic compounds because you have to find something that you can assign, like a worm in a box of dirt, the worm could have enough food to survive, so that is your negative control, but when it comes to finding the best, that would have to rely on something within the parameters of being self sufficient like a plant getting its energy from photosynthesis, etc.
