Answer;

The above statement is false

The total number of organisms an ecosystem can support is its carrying capacity.

Explanation;

-Carrying capacity is the average population density or population size of a species below which its numbers tend to increase and above which its numbers tend to decrease because of shortages of resources.

-For a given region, carrying capacity is the maximum number of individuals of a given species that an area's resources can sustain indefinitely without significantly depleting or degrading those resources.

The carrying capacity is different for each species. in a habitat because of that species’ particular food, shelter, and social requirements.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

The four factors that affect evolution are mutations, natural selection, genetic drift and the gene flow, In the case, if the ground finches that Grants studied, we can observe the working of the natural selection. Due to change in the conditions in the environment, the large beak was an advantageous trait that was favored by the natural selection. The result of this process was an increase in numbers of large beaked finches and decrease in small-beaked finches compared to the initial numbers in the population.

C.perfringens, an obligate anaerobe, is capable of utilizing the carbohydrates release from injured tissue as an energy source.
Leto [7]

Answer;

It is a saccharolytic organism that can utilize carbohydrates anaerobically, therefore there is no evolution of co2.

Explanation;

A saccharolytic bacterium is a microbe having the ability to generate energy by metabolizing carbohydrates.

They include both heterotrophic and autotrophic organisms and transform sugars under aerobic and anaerobic conditions.

The energy-generating metabolic processes for obligate anaerobes are not coupled with the consumption of oxygen, oxygen kills the organisms.
