Which of the following correctly describes the disruption of an ecosystem service by an anthropogenic activity?
ehidna [41]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Provisioning services are disrupted by increased combustion of fossil fuels, which leads to an increase in air pollution".

Explanation:

The ecosystem provides several services that if used with responsibility, could be sustained by the nature. Unfortunately, disruption of an ecosystem service could happen by an anthropogenic activity, which are the activities that humans perform. One example is the disruption of provisioning services by increased combustion of fossil fuels, which leads to an increase in air pollution. The ecosystem provides clean air that gives oxygen for people and animals to breath, however high combustion of fossil fuels could disrupt this service.

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.

Glucose moves from the plasma into a skeletal muscle cell, where it is used for energy. Through which fluid compartment does glu
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

(B) Interstitial fluid

Explanation:

The interstitial fluid and blood plasma together make the extracellular fluid. The extracellular fluids are present outside the cells. The extracellular fluid that is present in the narrow spaces between cells of tissues is known as interstitial fluid. When a substance moves from blood plasma into the cells of a tissue, it crosses the interstitial fluid present between its cells. Therefore, when a skeletal muscle cell picks glucose molecules from blood plasma, it moves from plasma to the interstitial fluid to enter the cell.
