Hi!


The correct option would be A. There's lower biodiversity among birds


Biodiversity refers to the variety of organisms (species) that inhabit a particular place, such as in our case different species of birds.

From the graph we can see that over time, the bird species are declining. From roughly 1700 bird species, the number has fallen to about 200 bird species by the middle of the fourth year.

Hence, we can deduce, and it would be accurate to say, that there is a relatively lower biodiversity amongst the birds with regard to that in the beginning.

Option B is incorrect because if the birds had a higher reproductive rate, they would be able to make up for the loss of bird species from the habitat. From the graph, we can assume that there's a moderately low reproductive rate among the birds.

Option C is incorrect because we do not know the affect of this pollution on the producers (photosynthesizing plant lifeforms). It may be possible that they might be declining, but we cannot conclude that solely from the graph.


Hope this helps!

Fantom [35]

Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

All living organisms such as plants and animals require energy to function properly (life activities). Thus, the organelle where energy from nutrients is released is generally referred to as mitochondria. Animals retrieve energy using mitochondria to do cellular respiration because they typically act like a digestive system by taking in nutrients, breaking them down and obtaining energy rich molecules for cell-life activities.

Cellular respiration can be defined as a series of metabolic reactions that typically occur in cells so as to produce energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). During cellular respiration, high energy intermediates are created that can then be oxidized to make adenosine triphosphate (ATP). These intermediary products are produced at the glycolysis and citric acid cycle stage.

Basically, mitochondria is one of the cell organelles found in all living organisms and it is known as the powerhouse. Therefore, mitochondria provides all the energy required in the cell by transforming energy forms through series of chemical reactions; breaking down of glucose into Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) used for providing energy for cellular activities in the body of living organisms.

Hence, during respiration, most ATP is formed as a direct result of the net movement of protons down a concentration gradient but not potassium against a concentration gradient potassium.
