Answer: d. None of the above

Sustainable development involves the maintenance of human community with the adequate and judicious use of natural resources so that these resources will be available for future use. Small societies can maintain stability in the long terms by following notion of sustainable development. Smaller societies have a smaller demand for resources. As, lesser the number of individuals lesser will be the demand for resources and these resources will be available for future hence, smaller societies will maintain stability. Smaller societies can be governed by internal controls more effectively than larger societies because members can control the use of resources by creating awareness among themselves and use of resources can be checked upon. Small societies rely more heavily on legislation and military forces because these can ensure that all norms of resource conservation and sustainable development are strictly followed by members of the society.

Therefore, all options are useful for maintaining stability in the society.

Answer: C

Because there is no relation in the number of people and their reliability on the legislation and military forces.

What would have to be done to a plant oil to transform it to a trans fat in simple molecule terms?
ivann1987 [24]
<span>In order to understand trans fat, you must understand the prefix. Trans and cis are prefixes that mean opposite and same side, just like transgender people identify with a gender that is not in line with their biological sex, and cisgender people identify with their biological gender. Cis fat describes the fatty acids attached to the glycerol in triglycerides. Cis fats have hydrogen attached to the carbon chain just like trans fats, but at one, two, or more places on the chain, two hydrogen atoms attached on the same side, and the fatty acid chain gets bent, making the collection of fats less dense and therefore healthier for you and I. Trans fats have hydrogen atoms on alternating sides all the way down the chain, making them denser and solid at room temperature. In order to turn a plant oil (cis fat) into trans fat, the cis fat has to be blasted with hydrogen in order to turn the fatty acid chains from cis to trans. This adds more energy to the fats while also making them denser, which turns olive oil into a butter-like substance.</span><span />

To my esteemed Biology colleagues: 10/15/19 I am National Park Ranger, Imani. I am writing you as my park is in desperate need o
Zanzabum

Answer:

See explanation below.

Explanation:

1. Explain the difference in the roles of producers, consumers, and decomposers in the Everglades.

In the Everglades, producers would be all <u>species of organisms that are autotrophs such as different species of plants</u>. Consumers are categorized into three: primary, secondary and terciary consumers. <em><u>Primary consumers</u></em><u> feed on plants (e.g. insects), </u><em><u>secondary consumers</u></em><u> eat the primary consumers (e.g. mice or rats), while </u><em><u>tertiary consumers</u></em><u> are higher predators that eat the secondary consumers (e.g. racoons)</u>. Finally, decomposers are bacteria, archaeans, fungi, or worms that live in soil which decompose organic matter.

2. Based on your knowledge of how to classify living organisms, in what domain and kingdom do the producers, consumers, and decomposers belong?

In Biology, the three domains are Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya; while there are six kingdoms: Archaebacteria, Eubacteria (true bacteria), Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia.

  • Producers, that is plants, belong to the Domain Eukarya and the Kingdom Plantae.
  • Primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers also belong to the Domain Eukarya and to the Kingdom Animalia as they are all animals and eukaryotes.
  • Decomposers are classified into the three domains: Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya. Bacteria belong to the domain Bacteria, archaeans belong to the domain Archaea, and worms and fungi belong to the domain Eukarya. On the other hand, decomposers are classified into Archaebacteria, Eubacteria, Protista (oomycetes), Fungi, and Animalia (worms).

3. How did energy travel in the Everglades BEFORE the alligators were removed?

Aquatic plants (producers) <-- bass <-- bluegill <-- gar <-- alligator

Aquatic plants (producers) <-- zooplankton <-- bass/bluegill <-- wood stork <-- alligator

Plants (producers) <-- cattle <-- alligator

Plants (producers) <-- insects <-- rats <-- racoons <-- alligator

4. How did removing the alligators from the food web change how energy flowed in the Everglades?

Once the alligators were removed from the food web, the populations that were once in decline began to recover because of the lack of predators. Consequently, the lack of alligators led to the uncontrollable growth of racoons, wood stork, and gar, which could also cause an alteration as they consume ecologically and economically important fish species such as the bass and bluegill.

5. How did the problem begin, and what action(s) should Ranger Imani take to solve this issue?

The problem began when the populations of alligator, an apex predator that sits at the top of the food chain, grew at an accelerated pace. This led to the uncontrolled predation of other organisms that are also fundamental to maintain an ecological balance. Therefore, Ranger Imani decided to humanely euthanize the alligators, which were preying upon them. This led to a huge increase in wood stork, gar, and racoon populations.

Alligators should not be completely removed because they help to maintain an ecological balance. Instead, Ranger Imani should work on controlling populations by implementing Wildlife Population Management strategies, such as sustainable fishing, to prevent a certain species population from reaching a high number of individuals in order to keep a healthy ecosystem where all populations are stable because removing all apex predators is not the appropriate strategy as it significantly alters the ecosystem.

In which column on the chart below would the information below best fit for a mode of reproduction, CANNOT REPRODUCE WITHOUT A H
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

B. Virus.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since bacteria (A.) reproduce via asexual reproduction via mitosis and the animal (D.) and vegetal (C.) cells could reproduce via sexual or asexual reproduction depending on the organism, they do not need a host to start the replication of the DNA and therefore reproduce. In such a way, it is widely known that viruses need a host that facilitates the replication of their DNA or RNA (depending on the virus) since they only have their genetic information but they do not have neither the RNA nor the DNA polymerase that favor such process, that is why they need a host.

Best regards.
