Explain why the number of mice in a grassland ecosystem is greater than the number of hawks

Biology
1 answer:
Westkost [7]3 years ago
5 0
Let's go back to "Darwin's" evolution theory. mice can be smarter than the average hawk, they are fast, have underground protection from cold,heat, rain,ECT..and they scavenge during p.m. hours, not all hawks are nocturnal, that's why owls are nocturnal. This cycle ensures enough food source for all predators. A hawk can consume at least 6 mice per day/night. rodents are natural prey for all preditors., even coyote. hope this helps, plus mice reproduce quickly compared to preditors.
hope this helps..

What types of molecules may not need transport proteins to be able to cross cytoplasmic membranes?
frozen [14]

The correct answer is small hydrophobic molecules.

The smaller the molecule and the more hydrophobic, or nonpolar, it is, the more rapidly it will diffuse across a membrane. It is because of the composition of membrane (lipid bilayer). By contrast, membrane is highly impermeable to charged molecules (ions), no matter how small they are.

En un bosque oscuro, ¿qué variación de la polilla salpicada se reproduciría en
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Condiciones ambientales adecuadas.

Explicación:

La variación de la polilla moteada se reproduciría en mayor número debido a las condiciones ambientales adecuadas. El color oscuro del bosque ayuda a la polilla moteada a esconderse de sus depredadores que se alimentan de ellos y provoca la disminución de la población de polillas. Es un proceso de selección natural en el que la polilla de color oscuro sobrevive y aumenta la población debido al color oscuro del bosque, mientras que la población de polilla de color claro disminuye debido a la alta depredación.
