For body cells to function properly, the following conditions need to be balanced:
1. BLOOD SUGAR
2. BODY WATER
3. BODY TEMPERATURE.
These three factors have to be in the right proportion for the cells and the body as a whole to function properly and to maintain homeostasis.
Blood sugar is the source of energy in the cell and it is required by all cell for carrying out the normal biochemical reactions in the body. The biochemical reactions in the body use water as a medium of reaction, thus the water balance in the body must be maintained. The body temperature also need to be kept at the normal level or else the normal biochemical reaction of the body will not be able to take place, due to the fact that incorrect temperatures deactivate the enzymes that mediate biochemical reactions.
A Punnett square summarizes how the processes of meiosis and fertilization contribute to inheritance of different alleles of a gene. So one major advantage is it can help determine certain things about a child by looking at the dominant and recessive genes and gives a percent of how likely they are to get that thing for example a punnet square may show what color a child’s eye color is likely to be upon birth
1) B
(I'm not so sure of this one) All of the other options have a steady impact on population regardless of the density of organisms except competition
2) D
Increased carbon dioxide levels would not hinder plant growth, and tsunamis aren't really linked to carbon dioxide levels. Increased carbon dioxide is unlikely to lower the air temperature so only D is left.
3) A
4) Three properties of water that allow it to sustain life are that it is adhesive, it is a good solvent, and cohesion. Adhesion is important in situations such as water travelling up xylem tubes in plants so that the water is not pulled down by gravity and can reach parts of the plant that need water. Cohesion allows the water being pulled up the xylem to stay together and for water molecules to be pulled when a neighbouring one is moved. Water being a good solvent allows inorganic minerals to be taken with water through vascular tissue, such as in the previous example.
The intermediate disturbance hypothesis predicts that species diversity will be highest when the frequency and/or intensity of disturbances are intermediate
Explanation:
The diversity of the species is maximised at an intermediate near of anthropogenic as well as natural disturbances. As the competitively inferior disturbances are being tolerated for species disturbance and are termed to be dominant. Co exist of the sensitive species when the disturbance are either frequent or rare, which possess the reduced level of the disturbances. the productivity is predicted as very less due to competitive exclusion. As the disturbances increases productivity becomes less as most of them unable to sustain the regular destructive occurrence. So with the intermediate disturbances productivity is high as the rapid colonizers and dominant competitors are able to coexist.
A The continents were once joined together
Explanation:
All the continents were once together making a huge one called Pangea.
