The Schwann cells produces insulating myelin sheath that covers the axons of many neurons. These cells may suffers immune or toxic attacks with diphtheria infection.

Options-

A. A substance that removes carbon dioxide gas

B. A plant to produce oxygen

C. A glucose reserve

D. A valve to release excess water

Solution -

It is given that the rate at which oxygen is consumed and the rate at which carbon dioxide is produced is same. Therefore, if we somehow are able to measure the volume of carbon dioxide, we can interpolate the rate of consumption of oxygen from it.

Hence, A substance that removes carbon dioxide gas is essential to provide accurate volumetric measurements of oxygen gas consumption

How would a sudden decrease in the rabbit population on an island affect another species there? *
Sonbull [250]

The correct answer is option D The population of foxes would probably decrease.

A food chain can be defined as a linear sequence of organisms through which the nutrients and energy flow as one organisms feeds on the other. Each level of the food chain is called the trophic level. They show organisms starting from the producers and end with consumers or sometimes with detrivores or decomposers. The producers which use solar energy and prepare their food occupy the first trophic level, followed by the primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary consumers occupying the next trophic level.

In the terrestrial food chain given above, grass → rabbit → fox, the decrease in the any population will effect the other organism at a different trophic level of the food chain. A sudden decrease in the population of rabbits will decrease the population of the foxes at the next trophic level as it is a secondary consumer feeding on the primary consumer which is the rabbit. So, a sudden decrease in the rabbit population will starve the foxes and thus decrease their number in the island.
