The correct answer is - regulation of the heavy metal and their toxicity.

Explanation:

Metallothionein is a group of cysteine-rich, small in size, and highly conserved proteins that bind to various metal ions and regulate their activity or toxicity in transcriptional level.

Metallothionein IIA is one of the metallothioneins that binds to heavy metal and helps cells to be protected from the toxicity of these heavy metals. These proteins are present in almost every eukaryotic organisms virtually. These proteins are highly induced to express highly in the present of heavy metals.

N a jungle habitat, there lives a species of snake, called Species A. The carrying capacity of the jungle allows 5000 of Species
OLEGan [10]

Based on the carrying capacity of the habitat and the changes that occurred in number of the two snake species, correct option is They occupy the same niche and are competing fully for all resources; option D

<h3>What is carrying capacity of a habitat?</h3>

The carrying capacity of a habitat is the maximum number of species the available resources in that habitat can sustain.

The data given of the species of snakes, Species A and Species B, indicate that they are both present in the habitat after a change occurs in the habitat.

Since the population of Species A became zero after Species B was introduced in the habitat, they occupy the same niche and are competing fully for all resources.

In conclusion, the competition between the species of snakes is responsible for the decline in Species A.
