It has the ability to bind itself to small amounts of acid in the blood, which helps with removing that acid before the blood’s pH changes
Answer:
A: Suited for their environment
Explanation:
You can automatically eliminate B and C, since they both say that animals with adaptations that won't work with their environment would have a higher survival rate. This doesn't make sense; adaptations that wouldn't suit an environment would actually lower the population's chances of reproduction and survival.
That leads us to A and D. However, A would be the correct answer. Organisms with adaptations that suited their environment would help them (since it would make the organism more compatible with their environment), rather than having no change at all.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
The small population of zooplankton have an unequal effect on the marine community.
Explanation:
According to this question, there are three trophic levels of organism in a lake as follows: non-native fish, zooplankton, and algae. However, due to the declination in the number of zooplanktons in the lake as they were fed on by the non-native fish, the algal population increased to form a BLOOM.
This bloom of algal species can be attributed to the lack of zooplanktons, which represented the only herbivorous (plant eaters) organism in that community. Hence, their relatively small population have an unequal effect on the marine community. This means that the small population of zooplanktons caused an imbalance in the community and this is why ZOOPLANKTON is the keystone species in this scenario.
Answer:
c. Increased reabsorption of phosphate in the kidneys
d. Increased deposition of calcium into the bones.
Explanation:
Hyperphosphatemia is a condition that is expressed particularly in people with a kidney dysfunction. It comprises the kidneys, which do not excrete enough phosphate from the body as they reabsorbe it and thus leading to increased phosphate levels.
Also, phosphate binds calcium with high affinity, provoking acute hypocalcemia (decreased levels of calcium). In Hyperphosphatemia, calcium is being deposited mostly in the bone but also in the extraskeletal tissue.
