Indirect methods like mark and recapture become a strong tool to estimate population size or density in species on which it is impossible to apply a direct methods. <em>Because of their biological and ecological characteristics, the Gypsy moth and the Green lizard populations are good examples for which mark and recapture would work well.</em>
<em>------------------------------------------------------</em>
There are different methods to study population density. There are direct methods and indirect methods. Among these last ones, we might find the Mark-Recapture technique.
The Mark-Recapture technique assumes that
- <em>the population is closed during the sampling season, there is no mortality nor natality, </em>
- <em>marks in the individual last the whole sampling season, and they do not affect the marked individual or their behavior. </em>
- <em>marked individuals are randomly distributed in the population, and </em>
- <em>all the individuals have the same probability of being sampled.</em>
The method consists of capturing a sample of individuals belonging to the population under study. After capturing the individuals, the researcher marks and releases them again. The third step is to sample again: The researcher captures new individuals and counts how many of them are marked. These marked individuals belong to the first sample.
Indirect methods like this become a strong tool to estimate population size or density in species on which it is impossible to apply a direct method such as <em>counting individuals</em>.
For instance, if we need to estimate insects population density (<u><em>Gypsy moth population</em></u>) or reptiles population density (<u><em>Green lizard population</em></u>) because of their biological and ecological characteristics, the best way of doing it is by applying indirect methods. <em>These species characterize as small-sized, fast to escape, they can hide in small inaccessible places, they have nocturnal habits, their reproductive rate is too high, and their distribution rate is wide. </em>Among many other characteristics, their population density can not be estimated by direct methods. Mark-Recapture technique is the most suitable one.

The answer is.d. stromatolites hope it help
<span>Maggie's training regimen may put her at risk to develop secondary amenorrhea. While amenorrhea is the absence of menstruation, secondary amenorrhea is the absence of the menstrual cycle in females who have started menstruating (having had at least one cycle) and then stop menstruating for a period longer than three months. Secondary amenorrhea occurs in times of extreme stress or weight loss (such as anorexia). Female soldiers have experienced secondary amenorrhea when they have gone to war or have become prisoners of war. Hormone shots, extreme weight gain, birth control, and certain medications also cause the condition.</span>
A linear shaped piece of DNA strand is obtained when a plasmid is cut HindIII, Apa1, and Sma1.
Explanation:
Restriction enzymes are endonucleases which enzymatic proteins which can cut a DNA at specific sequences at particular recognition sites. The sequences recognized by these enzymes are usually palindromic that occurs for a definite length (6 bp, 4 bp, or 8 bp).
They can either be blunt cutters or sticky end cutters. APA1, SMA1, and HindIII are all restriction enzymes which can cut a circular plasmid at specific locations.
These restriction enzymes bind with the DNA at specific locations and cuts them to give linear strands of DNA either with a blunt or a sticky end.
Answer:
1) By 11:30pm
2) Shortly before midnight (few minutes to 12:00am)
Explanation:
Since the strain of bacteria takes 1 minute to divide (double its population), and by midnight (12:00am) the entire bottle becomes full, then:
I) Subtract Initial division time from Final division time i.e 12:00 - 11:00 = 1 hour
II) Split 1 hour into two (60minutes makes 1 hour)
I hour/2 = 30 minutes
Definitely, the bottle will be half filled by 11:30pm
2) Once half filled, the rapidly dividing cells reach for the top of the bottle as midnight approaches. By 11:50pm upwards, bottle space must have been running out
