Answer:

When a resource is over consumed to the point of diminishing it. in the context of species extinction, if an animal population, say fish like anchovies, were to be fished for and eaten so much that they would have no chance to recover their numbers as they are eaten, it would be overexploitation. Hope this helps.

DNA evidence analysis is an imperfect science. Provide two reasons why this may
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Imperfect science can be described as the scientific study of a research/field that is not complete or is characterized with a number of faults. While there are many scientific research fields or focus that fall under this category (because scientists are constantly seeking to improve existing knowledge of various scientific field), let's limit our scope to DNA evidence analysis.

DNA evidence testing for instance is very expensive which makes it difficult (in most cases) for victims to request for it in cases of crime (except requested by the government). For instance, if a killing that involves a struggle was done in a small neighborhood of about a 100 people with no visual confirmation of the killer but just some blood samples of the killer, DNA evidence testing might still not be used in a case like this despite the  crime happening in a relatively small community.

Also, since DNA evidence testing relies on the gene and there is a lot of research going on at the moment on genes (including gene mapping and locus system) which can assist to lower the number of suspects by predicting the origins of suspects. It should be noted that reducing the number of suspects reduces the amount that will be spent on DNA analysis of the suspects (since there are fewer suspects).

the following shows a graph of the energy changes taking place as a chemical reaction progress. If an enzyme is added, which arr
Alekssandra [29.7K]
The arrow representing the activation energy will decrease in magnitude.

This arrow will be beginning at the x-axis and going up to the maximum of the graph. The reason that its magnitude decreases is because enzymes provide  alternate pathways to reactions; the new pathway has a lower activation energy, so the reaction occurs faster when an enzyme is added. This is why enzymes are referred to as biological catalysts and are a vital part of an organism's body
