<u>Answer:</u>
All the individuals of a species that live together in one place at the same time is called as population.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- When organisms of same group or species live in a particular area they are defined as population.
- Along with living in a particular area the species should also have the 'capability of interbreeding' in order to be called as population.
- Demography is a social science that deals with the 'statistical study of population'.
- A term 'sex population' is often visualized in 'population genetics', it refers to a organisms group in which a 'pair of members' can breed together.
Answer:
.....
Explanation:
There is no doubt that competition occurs, but less is known about the strength and importance of competition affecting ecosystems. The latter is not easy to get at for living organisms because the role of each organism in the ecosystem needs to be well-known. It is even more difficult for fossil ecosystems because the diet is not fully understood for each species and not all animals have the same preservation potential. Nevertheless, paleontologists have attempted to find evidence for competition between taxa. For example, they have investigated the diversity and abundance through time of two groups thought to have competed with each other by having lived at about the same time and place and having had a similar diet. For example, Sepkoski and colleagues (2000) showed that cyclostome bryozoans became much more diverse in the Cretaceous and Cenozoic, while cheilostome bryozoan diversity declined. Strong competition between these two groups with cyclostomes as the winner is an explanation for this pattern.
Somatotropin
Somatotropin is a polypeptide growth hormone that regulates the growth of bone, muscle, and other body tissues. Somatotropin is secreted by somatotropic cells within the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. Somatotropin is important in human development as it stimulates growth, cell regenerations and reproduction in humans and other animals. The levels of somatotrophin rise increasingly during childhood and also occur at its peak in puberty.
I don't think it's A. Think of all the different colors, ages, and unique predetermined ( by environment and genes) physical abilities of mice. Not to mention the fur, which would hinder any observations made off of the animals' skin (physical appearance). There would be plenty of data, but it would be inaccurate data. Just like measuring a horse in hands (when all hands are different sizes), or like determining the distance between trees in steps ( when everyone has varying lengths of stride). C is the correct answer, as it is the only data which can be replicated. ( If one scientist measures in millimeters, then another scientist will be able to get the same results.)
