Answer: Population distributions may be described as <em>random, uniform</em><em> or </em><em>clustered.</em>

Explanation:

In a specified region, a population comprises any  number of members of the same species. Populations are described by sizes- the number of individuals; densities-  individuals in a set space (per unit area); and distribution- the dispersal or non dispersal of individuals (spread out or clumped). Population distributions may be described in three ways:

  • Random: the distribution pattern is haphazard, with no regular spacing; individuals grow independently of each other without competing and resources are consistent. <em>E.g. dandelion seed dispersal by wind </em>

  • Uniform:  individuals are evenly spaced in a predictable pattern; there may be some interaction and ideally, spaces between them  are maximized in order to ensure access to limited nutrients and resources.<em> E.g.  human farming- cornfields, orchards; allelopathy in plants like purple sage, which secretes chemicals to prevent the growth of other plants nearby</em>

  • Clumped: there is less distance between neighboring organisms and these individuals cluster together. This pattern is most common in environments where resources are scarce, or the species is dependent on social interactions.<em> E.g. lions are highly social and hunt in prides in the wild</em>

Answer:

The three types of population distribution are uniform, random, and clumped.

Uniform distribution is rare. Individuals are evenly spaced and there is fierce competition for resources.

In random distribution, some individuals are close together, and some are spread apart. This occurs when there are sufficient resources available.

In clumped distribution individuals are clustered around patchy resources. This is the most common type of distribution.

mario62 [17]

Answer:No

Explanation:Plants will not just have to rely on one animal to help reproduce. Plants can mimic things such as scents or looks to be an incentive for other animals. Wind and water can also help transport pollen. Plants always have pollinators such as wind, water, insects, and animals. Plants use mimicry in order to attract the biotic pollinators. Plants will never have trouble reproducing because they have so many different pollinators.

The-attraction of the positive side of one water
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

B = hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

The water molecule consist of two hydrogen atom one oxygen atom. There is large electronegativity difference between oxygen and hydrogen. Both atoms are bonded through covalent bonds.

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial negative.  The partial positive end of one water molecule attracted towards the partial negative end of other moleucle. The attraction between them is called hydrogen bonding. In this way large mole are connected with each other. Hydrogen bonding is actually a weak bonding.

Which is released during the information of a peptide bond
Bad White [126]
A peptide bond is a chemical bondformed between two molecules whenthe carboxyl group of one molecule reacts with the amino group of the other molecule, releasing a molecule of water (H2O). This is a dehydration synthesis reaction (also known as a condensation reaction), and usually occurs between amino acids.
