Answer:
The correct answer is: (B) erythropoietin (EPO) – increases white blood cell production.
Explanation:
Erythropoietin is a hormone secreted by the kidney when dealing to cellular hypoxia (low oxygen content on body tissues) to stimulate red blood cell production. This is because red blood cells are the ones that transport oxygen to every tissue in the body.
It is not possible for two species with the same niche to coexist. one species will eventually drive the other into extinction
Answer:
countries with higher populations are likely to use more resources
Explanation:
The vastness of the threats to the ecosystem is directly linked to human population size and resource uses per person. Resource use, waste production and environmental degradation are accelerated by population growth.
Answer:
75%
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for flower color in pea plants. The allele for purple flowers (T) is dominant over the allele for white flowers (t).
According to the question, two heterozygous purple-flowered plants (Tt) are crossed i.e. Tt × Tt. The following gametes will be produced by each parent; T and t. Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following proportion of offsprings will be produced:
TT, Tt, Tt, and tt.
Since purple allele (T) is dominant, offsprings TT, Tt, and Tt will be phenotypically purple-flowered. Hence, ¾ × 100 = 75% of offsprings will have purple flowers.
Answer: Raptorial birds especially the forest eagles, hawk-eagles, Accipiter hawks, and falcons are the most likely species to prey on adult parrots and macaws.
