es often exhibit greater species diversity than other communities II. Moderate disturbances create openings / opportunities for colonizing species III.

Answer;

-Communities that experience moderate disturbances often exhibit greater species diversity than other communities,

-Moderate disturbances create openings/opportunities for colonizing species

Explanation;

-Ecological disturbances may be generated by abiotic, or nonliving, forces such as weather and wildfires, or they may occur as a result of biotic, or living, forces such as disease and invasions of exotic species.

-Disturbance can result from natural causes or from the activities of humans. Disturbance can be caused by physical stressors such as volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, and over geological time, glacial advance, and retreat.

-Humans can also cause physical disturbances, for example, through construction activities. Wildfire is a type of chemical disturbance caused by the rapid combustion of much of the biomass of an ecosystem and often causing mortality of the dominant species of the community such as trees in the case of a forest fire.

If there are 10 chromosomes in a particular cell at the start of prophase how many will be present in the same cell at the end o
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

20 chromosomes

Explanation:

Mitosis is a kind of cell division that results in daughter cells with same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. It involves stages including Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase. In prophase, the Chromatin condenses into Chromosomes.

In Anaphase stage, the 10 chromosomes as mentioned in the question divides into opposite poles of the cell. One individual chromosome contains two sister chromatids, which actually separates in the Anaphase stage. Hence, at the end of the Anaphase stage, there will be 10 chromatids each at opposite poles of the cell. Each chromatid at this stage is considered a chromosome.

Hence, a cell with 10 chromosomes will contain 20 chromosomes (10+10 chromatids on each pole) in the Anaphase stage just before the cell divides into two in a process called CYTOKINESIS.
