This question is not complete; here is the complete question:
A one-hectare pond is sampled in early September. The sample yields 1 small catfish as well as 17 benthic invertebrates that represent 10 species.
If the pond is resampled a year later, which of the following would best indicate that the pond had been adversely affected by adjacent development?
A. An uncommon species has become more numerous
B. An increase in low-tolerance species has occurred
C. A decrease in high-tolerance species has occurred
D. Phylogenetic diversity has occurred
E. The biodiversity of the pond has decreased
The answer to this question is E. The biodiversity of the pond has decreased
Explanation:
In ecology, an ecosystem can be affected by adjacent developments including human developments or even other ecosystems and this can lead to positive or negative consequences.
In this context, one example that shows the was an adverse effect is "The biodiversity of the pond has decreased" because the reduction in diversity represents a major thread for an ecosystem as this makes species more vulnerable to disappear. Also, this can be caused by factors such as pollution caused by human development or major predator of the adjacent ecosystem feeding on organisms in the main ecosystem. Besides this, in the first sample, there were multiple species and a reduction in the second sample shows the ecosystem was weakened.
The dependent clause of a sentence is a part of a sentence before or after a comma that can't stand alone. the dependent clauses are: " After he was injured by a stray ball," and "Though he hated Math,"
The answer is Separation of Powers
The easiest way to find such limits, where there is a numerator and a denominator is to apply <span><span>Hospital's Rule.
1st find the derivative of the numerator and the derivative of the denominator, if it still gives an indeterminate value, find the second derivative of N and D
3) lim sin(2x)/x when x →0
Derivative sin2x → 2cos2x
Derivative x→ 1
2cos2x/1 when x→0 , 2cos2x → 2
and lim sin(2x)/x when x →0 is 2
4) lim(sinx)/(2x²-x)
→cosx/(2x-1) when x →0 cosx/(2x-1) = -1
and lim(sinx)/(2x²-x) when x →0 is -1
and so on and so forth. Try to continue following the same principle
