The number of ducks in a pond is equal to the square root of the number of fish, and the number of turtles is equal to the cube
brilliants [131]

Answer:

There are 64 fish, 8 ducks and 4 turtles.

Explanation:

From the question, there can be from 2 to 99 fish in the pond. However, there cannot be fractions in the number of fish, ducks or turtles. Hence, the number of fish must have both of a perfect square and perfect cube. The perfect squares from 2 to 99 are 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64 and 81. The perfect cubes from 2 to 99 are 8, 27 and 64. Since only 64 fits both criteria, the number of fish is 64. The number of ducks is the square root of number of fish, which is the square root of 64. The square root of 64 can be either positive 8 or negative 8. However, there cannot be negative numbers, so there are 8 ducks in total. The number of turtles is the cube root of the number of fish, which is the cube root of 64 and it is 4.

All organisms in an ecosystem are interrelated by the abiotic and biotic resources they use in the course of their lives:
jonny [76]

<span>a)      </span>The milkweed is the primary producer in the ecosystem. It manufactures food from the abiotic factors in the soil such as nitrates and water and those in the atmosphere such as carbon-dioxide and sunlight. The milk weed is then fed on by the caterpillar and a primary consumer. The caterpillar is then fed on the mocking bird (secondary consumer)

<span>b)      </span>Increased human population growth and their activities have resulted in the emission of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This has increased the global temperature. This increase of global temperature increase ocean temperatures causing coral bleaching.

Another example is depletion of water sources by human activities hence causing drought. Drought reduces the amount of vegetation growth due to scarcity of water in the soil (due to lowering of the water table) for plant growth.

One strand in a segment of a gene has the base sequence TGCTTA. What would be the complementary sequence of nucleotides found on
yarga [219]

The complementary sequence of nucleotides found on the other strand of DNA is <u>ACGAAT</u> when one strand in a segment of a gene has the base sequence TGCTTA.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Deoxyribonucleic acid is the one which carries the genetic information from the parent to the offspring.  During DNA replication one strand of DNA replicates to produce another strand.        

The DNA molecule have a anti-parallel structure and the two strands run in opposite direction. If in one strand in a segment of a gene has the base sequence TGCTTA the complementary sequence of nucleotides found on the other strand of DNA will be ACGAAT.
