The cane toad, or Rhinella marina, was introduced to the Hawaiian Islands in 1932 by sugar cane farmers. The farmers released th

e toads in their crops to help control pests that were damaging the sugar cane. The cane toad has few natural predators because it secretes a poisonous toxin that kills the animals that consume it. As a result, the cane toad population thrived, and by 1935, it numbered hundreds of thousands. Which role does the cane toad play in the Hawaiian islands?

The answer is invasive species.

<span>Invasive species are species that are not native to the specific ecosystem, but they are capable of spreading widely through the ecosystem. This way they can threaten native species of the ecosystem or cause environmental harm. 
</span>

<span>After being introduced into the Hawaiian Islands, the cane toads greatly affect local ecosystem. In the new area, they have a few natural predators and are able to spread. If they spread beyond the area they are introduced, they become invasive species which can overgrow native biotopes and are a great threat to the local biodiversity. This could lead to the extinction of some native species.</span>

In a population of cats, the phenotypic frequency of black cats is 91%, and the phenotypic frequency of white cats is 9%. Assumi
Talja [164]

Answer:

1. Allele frequency of b = 0.09 (or 9%)

2. Allele frequency of B = 0.91 (0.91%)

3. Genotype frequency of BB = 0.8281 (or 82.81%)

4. Genotype frequency of Bb = 0.1638 (or 16.38%)

Explanation:

Given that:

p = the frequency of the dominant allele (represented here by B)  = 0.91

q = the frequency of the recessive allele (represented here by b)  = 0.09

For a population in genetic equilibrium:

p + q = 1.0 (The sum of the frequencies of both alleles is 100%.)

(p + q)^2 = 1

Therefore:

p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1

in which:  

p^2 = frequency of BB (homozygous dominant)

2pq = frequency of Bb (heterozygous)

q^2 = frequency of bb (homozygous recessive)

p^2 = 0.91^2 = 0.8281

2pq = 2(0.91)(0.9) = 0.1638

In three (3) sentences, explain the function of a vacuole in plant cells.
Rainbow [258]
"<span>The central vacuole is a cellular organelle found in plant cells. It is often the largest organelle in the cell. It is surrounded by a membrane and functions to hold materials and wastes. It also functions to maintain the proper pressure within the plant cells to provide structure and support for the growing plant."</span>

The cholodny-went hypothesis has been proposed to explain how plants bend toward a directional light source. What does this hypo
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The cholodny-went model was proposed in 1927. This model explains the capability of the shoots to grow in the direction of the sunlight whereas the capability of the roots to grow downwards. The hypothesis suggested that both these directional growth occurred due to the asymmetrical distribution of the plant hormone, auxin. This model has been modified a number of times by other scientists but its general concept is accepted by most of the researchers.

I NEED HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
brilliants [131]

Answer:

66.7m/s²

Explanation:

initial velocity(V)=54m/s

Final velocity(U)=4m/s²

Time taken(t)= 0.75 seconds

Acceleration is unknown

To find the acceleration we use this formula

a=v-u/t

a=54-4/0.75

a=50/0.75

a=66.666666

since it is acceleration we use the symbol m/s² after approximating to 1 decimal place

a=66.7m/s²
