The cane toad was a failure as a biological control method in Australia because:
-The greyback beetle it was supposed to be eating fed at the top of the sugarcane stalks (which were 6-8 meters in height). Cane toads cannot fly or climb and therefore couldnt feed on the beetles.
-The beetles were out during the daytime, and cane toads feed at night.
-The two species are not seasonally compatible (aren't in the same place at the same time of year).
-The toads needed moist conditions to survive, and so moved away from where they were supposed to be.
-The cane toad eats many native species and often out-competes native species for food and breeding sites, leading to the decline of natives.
-Breeding habits made the cane toads a very invasive species.

Which phrase best describes the property of selective permeability?
belka [17]

Answer:

some molecules pass

Explanation:

The ability of a membrane to pass or not to pass a substance is its permeability (permeability).

Permeability is, in fact, the ease with which a dissolved particle passes through the membrane, which depends on both the properties of the particles and the properties of the membrane itself.

The membrane is semipermeable (semipermeable) or selectively permeable because it does not permeate all molecules.
