Hi there!

As resources in a population become less available, the population:

C. Reaches carrying capacity

When resources in a population become less available, the population will not be able to continue growing even more because there would be enough resources, and so, it has reached its carrying capacity.

When the exponential phase of a logistic growth curve of a population ceases:

C. Population growth begins to slow down.

The population will continue to grow but will do so at a slower and steadier rate.

I hope that helps! :)

Answer:

1. C. reaches carrying capacity.

2. C. population growth begins to slow down.

Explanation:

1. Carrying capacity refers to the maximum number of individuals in a population or the maximum population size that can be indefinitely supported by a system. As the population size grows above the carrying capacity, the resources become scarce and the negative interactions among the individuals such as competition increase. The scarcity of one or more resources slows down population growth.  

2. In a logistic growth curve, the lag phase of population growth is followed by the log phase during which the population size grows exponentially. However, as the population size reaches the carrying capacity of the system, the exponential growth is stopped and the population enters into the stationary phase of growth. Therefore, once the carrying capacity is reached, the population growth is slowed down due to limited resources.

Which of the following is NOT a mechanism used to temporally regulate the activity of maturation-promoting factor (MPF)?
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

C. glycosylation

Explanation:

The maturation-promoting factor (MPF) is a cell cycle checkpoint that stimulates the passage from G2 (prophase) to M phase (metaphase). MPF also determines that DNA replication during the S (synthesis) phase did not produce any mutations. MPF is inactivated by kinase phosphorylation and activated by specific phosphatases capable of dephosphorylating this protein. On the other hand, glycosylation is a posttranslational modification where a carbohydrate (i.e., a glycan) is added to a functional group of another molecule. Many proteins undergo glycosylation, thereby playing a critical role in regulating protein function.

8. Genetic Code is <span>the nucleotide triplets of DNA and RNA molecules that carry genetic information in living cells, which is "language" for the genetic recipe book.</span>

9. No, the RNA has not undergone RNA processing yet. The AAC may be part of an intron--a non-coding sequence of RNA that is removed from the strand before exiting the nucleus and being translated into a protein.
