Answers:
D) According to the graph, obesity and diabetes are intertwined, which could be why obesity and diabetes are linked.
E) Diabetes had the greatest rise in prevalence in 1997 until 2000, with prevalence percentages between about 76% to 78%.
Explanation: Explanation for these answers are below:
D) Looking at the graph, obesity and diabetes had similar prevalences in 1997 and 1998, and started to part ways a little in 1999. In fact, even without the graph, scientists have known for a long time that people who have obesity also have diabetes. This graph supports that claim because of how closely linked diabetes and obesity are and how similar the prevalence percentages are.
E) Diabetes had the greatest rise in 1997 to 2000, which had a 78% prevalence by 2000. Obesity had very similar prevalence percentages from 75.5% to 77% in 1997 to 2000.
The last option is corrrect because when one species move away from an environment or die it lead to decrease in biodiversity as well as the overall health of ecosystem also decreases.
The answer would be C. It cant be A because thats the small intestant job not the large intestant. It cant be B because thats the pancreas job. And it cant be D because thats DNA job. So its just C. Hope this helped
Answer:
Please see below
Explanation:
A. Zebra mussels are located in the areas of the United States that they were introduced to but it continues to spread across the US as time progresses.
B. Since the Zebra mussels can attach itself to solid surfaces, boats are no exceptions. They are able to go a few days out of water which gives them enough time to remain attached until a boater takes the vessel to another lake or isolated body of water.
C. Since these are filter feeders they are growing without a natural predator since they are an invasive specie. They feed on the algae in the water and use up almost all of this food supply and makes resources for other native specie (fish) that depend on this food source to die out.
D. Burmese pythons in the Florida everglades are an invasive specie. The prey on endangered species, have no real predator and have voracious feeding habits that affect the numbers in the animal population.
E. Non- native mongoose was introduced on Jamaica to control the snake population. The problem with introducing a non native specie would be that this new organism is also without a natural predator. After the target specie has been eliminated it may try to feed on other animals in the ecosystem as well.
F. Invasive species need to adapt to weather conditions and should be able to hunt/acquire its food in order to survive in its new environment.
