Why did Barro Colorado Island (formed from a large hill during the flooding of the Panama Canal in 1914) have dozens of species

of butterflies go locally extinct on the island since its formation?
a. Per Island Biogeography predictions, small land area can support fewer butterfly species
b. Pesticide use on nearby banana plantations has had strong non-target impacts on numerous butterflies besides the pest moth that destroys banana crops
c. Habitat destruction on Barro Colorado Island has caused butterfly food plants to go extinct
d. Introduced parasitoid wasp species have caused native butterfly populations to go locally extinct

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

In the Barro Colorado Island, the mentioned local population of the butterfly species went on to become extinct mainly due to the fragmentation of habitats and the loss of habitats. The host plant on which the butterflies fed could not grow and they started to decline in number and slowly became extinct. Due to this the species of the butterfly also would have got extinct because of the lack of food.

As you read your textbook, identify the steps of translation and protein synthesis. Use first, then, next, after, and finally to
Marysya12 [62]

Explanation:

First during protein synthesis, transcription occurs in the nucleus, followed by translation within ribosomes. Then, newly synthesized proteins enter endoplasmic reticulum where they undergo folding and modification. Next, within the golgi body, the proteins are tagged; after,they are finally parceled into lysosomes. Finally, they can be exported out of the cell to fulfill various functions.

Further Explanation:

The endoplasmic reticulum is a membrane system within the cytoplasm that extends from the outer nuclear membrane. Apart from increasing the surface area within the cell, this continuous system also carries out protein folding, synthesis and transport. In the endoplasmic reticulum or ER, some sections called the smooth ER, do not contain ribosomes, and may contain lipids, enzymes, and other proteins. Other sections bound to ribosomes, are called the rough Er. As a protein destined for the endomembrane system is being synthesized by a ribosome, the first amino acids in the growing polypeptide chain act as a signal sequence. That signal sequence ensures that the ribosome binds to the outer membrane of the ER and that the protein enters the ER lumen. The proteins undergo major modifications and are packed into vesicles.

Golgi bodies are flat, disk-like membranous regions. Proteins traverse the organelle by first having their vesicles bind to the cis face or receiving end. Like a post office, the golgi complex, or golgi body recognizes specific signal sequences, targets and further modifies and packages these compounds into lysosomes for delivery to their final destination.  Proteins here undergo peptide processing and glycosylation .
