The correct answer is (d) The number of plants and birds increases and the number of snail decreases.

Green plants are eaten by snails, snails by birds, and birds by household cat. If cat is removed from the cycle then the number of birds will increase which will decrease the number of snail in the environment.  As there are large number of birds there will be a great demand of snails as a food for birds. Then there will be a decrease in the number of snails because of over eating of snails. There will be an increase in the number of garden plants because very less number of snails are left that will eat garden plants.

The correct answer is d. The number of plants and birds increase and the number of snails decreases.

The plants are eaten by the snails, the snails by the birds and birds by the cats. If the cats are removed from this food chain then there will be more number of birds surviving hence the number of birds increase. The birds will eat more snails so the number of snails will decrease. When the number of snails decreases, they will less number of plants therefore the number of plants increases. Every tropic level in the food chain has its own different impact on the number of species of the food chain.

An infectious disease researcher isolates the pathogen responsible for an emerging disease. The microbe is grown in the lab.

<h3>What exactly are pathogens?</h3>

Pathogens include viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites that can enter the body and harm the immune system. Among many additional viruses that can lead to serious illnesses are anthrax, HIV, the Epstein-Barr virus, and the Zika virus.

<h3>What is vaccination?</h3>

An easy, secure, and reliable method of preventing hazardous infections before you are exposed to them is vaccination. It boosts your immune system and builds up your body's natural defenses against particular infections.

<h3>Inactivated vaccine:</h3>

In inactivated immunizations, the disease-causing microorganism is eliminated.

Inactivated vaccines typically don't provide as strong of immunity (protection) as live vaccines. Therefore, it can take several doses (booster injections) throughout time to keep up your resistance to diseases.

How does carbon moves from the atmosphere to the biosphere?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Via a range of pathways, carbon travels from one storage reservoir to another. In the food chain, for example, plants, by photosynthesis, transfer carbon from the atmosphere into the biosphere. Respiration, excretion, and decomposition release the fuel, continuing the cycle, back into the atmosphere or soil.
