Decaying matter found in soil is normally from a dead animal or from an animal's waste system.
Weathering and erosion played a big role in forming the grand canyon. The rock was being weathered, most likely mechanical weathering, and then it eroded away. Think of a pebble that is in running water. When you pick it up, it is smooth, right. But before, it was pointy. So, the grand canyon was once a big rock, and weathering broke through it making it one of the wonders of the USA.
An ecologist studying plants in the desert performed the following experiment. She staked out two identical plots, which included a few sagebrush plants and numerous small, annual wildflowers. She found the same five wildflower species in roughly equal numbers on both plots. She then enclosed one of the plots with a fence to keep out kangaroo rats, the most common grain-eaters of the area. After two years, to her surprise, four of the wildflower species were no longer present in the fenced plot, but one species had increased dramatically. The control plot had not changed. Using the principles of ecology, propose a hypothesis to explain her results.
Explanation:
- This example highlights the impact of plant predation on species selection. In the fenced off plot animal predation is not a factor on plant selection.
- In this case plants will compete for resources only with each other and in this case one plant had a selective advantage over the other 3 species of plants. In the plot exposed to animal predation the ratio of the four species is equal.
- This is likely do to an increased preference of animals for the plant species that dominates in the fenced off plot and/or anti-animal predation tactics by the other three species.
a.Hypothesis: kangaroo rats are keystone species
-Reintroduce kangaroo rats (and the other locally extinct species)
-Should observe equilibrium re-established
b.Hypothesis: kangaroo rats exert top-down control on community
-Reintroduce kangaroo rats (and other locally extinct species)
-Increase kangaroo rat population in other plot
-Decrease (but don't eliminate) kangaroo rat population in other plot
c.Hypothesis: Locally extinct species inferiorly competed with the extant species of plant
-Remove surviving species from other plot (and remove kangaroo rat population)
The correct answer is:
a cell wall is only included on the plant cell
the cell membrane is included in both plant and animal cells
Explanation:
The cell wall is the outer most integument of the cell. The cell wall covers the cell membrane. The cell membrane is also known as the plasma membrane or plasmalemma. There is no another name for the cell wall. The cell membrane is being in almost all types of cells.
The purpose of the cell membrane is the equivalent as that of the skin. It leaves the elements inside the cell from the outside. The cell membrane provides assistance to the cytoskeleton of the cell, gives shape to the cell, and helps in the formation of tissues by adding the matrix located in the extracellular. It allows the passage of a certain substance.A cell membrane is incorporated by the cell wall which forms the outer most integument.
