The data shows that recently the shark population has increased. How will the increase in the shark population affect the other

populations? Be sure to explain whether the sea otter population, the sea star population, and the clam population will change, and why

Answer:

There is no data to show but there would definitely be a decrease in the population of the other organisms in lower trophic level (sea otter).

Explanation:

This question involves an aquatic food chain involving organisms like clams, sea stars, sea otters, and sharks. In this question, the shark appears to occupy the highest trophic level i.e. tertiary consumer. Ideally, as the food chain progresses from the lowest to highest trophic level, the population of each organism decreases.

However, an increase in the population of sharks will mean more mouths to feed on other consumers. Hence, causing a decrease in the population of other organisms in lower trophic level especially the organism that occupies the secondary consumer trophic level.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

  • Animal Cell:

Ribosome, Endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, small Vacuoles, Lysosomes, Mitochondria, Cell membrane, Cytoplasm.

  • Plant Cell:

Ribosome, Endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, Cell wall, Big Vacuole, Lysosomes, Mitochondria, Cell membrane, Cytoplasm, Chloroplasts.

Explanation:

                       <u>   Animal Cells                              Vegetable Cells</u>

Cell wall                          NO                                             YES

Vacuoles       YES, Small and more than ones     YES, Only one and big

Chloroplast                      NO                                        YES

Plasmatic membrane       YES                                            YES

Mitochondria                       YES                                         YES

Lysosomes                       YES                                           YES

Endoplasmic reticulum      YES                                           YES

Golgi apparatus                   YES                                           YES

Cytoplasm                            YES                                           YES

Ribosome                             YES                                           YES

Both the animal and plant cells are eukaryotic. They carry their genetic material in the nucleus and mitochondria. Organelles are located in the cytosol, and both of them are surrounded by a protector cell membrane.

However, they have some differences:

<u>Cell wall</u>: A rigid structure that provides support and protection.

  • Animal cells do not have a cell wall. They are only surrounded by the cell membrane, which is flexible, so they can adopt different shapes.
  • Plant cells have a wall, so their shape is usually prismatic and regular. The cell wall is composed mainly of cellulose.

<u>Chloroplast:</u> these are organelles that accumulate chlorophyll.

  • Animal cells do not have chloroplasts because they do not photosynthesize.
  • Plant cells have chloroplasts, and they are in charge of the photosynthesis process that allows plants to release oxygen. These organelles use solar light as the source of energy.

<u>Vacuoles</u>:

  • Animal cells have many and small vacuoles whose function is to store water, ions, and waste intracellular substances.
  • Plant cells have a unique big-sized vacuole that might occupy almost 90% of the cell. Their principal function is to store water and keep the turgidity. When the vacuole gets empty, the plant loses rigidity.

Other differences are:

The animal cell has centrioles, while the vegetable cell does not.

Plasmodium, chromoplasts, and glyoxysomes are present in the vegetable cell but not in the animal cell.

Which statement best describes an environmental consequence of unsealed landfills? Landfills can produce carbon dioxide that lea
kirill [66]

The correct statement describing environmental consequence of unsealed Landfills is : ( A ) Landfills can produce carbon dioxide that leak into the atmosphere

A landfill is composed of 4 essential components and some are ;

  • bottom linear
  • hydrogeologic component and
  • A cover ( seal )

Given that a landfill constitutes of about 40 to 60 percent of C0₂ the environmental consequence of not providing a proper seal for the landfill will be the leakage of C0₂ into the atmosphere. while

The release of Heavy metals as leach ate into the surrounding can be controlled with the provision of a system in the landfill, materials in landfill undergo decomposition for a long period of time.

Hence we can conclude that Landfills can produce carbon dioxide that leak into the atmosphere.
