Why are nonnative species a threat to biodiversity? Check all that apply.

Biology

yuradex [85]4 years ago

Answer:

The correct answers are the second and the fifth statements.

Explanation:

The non-native species are introduced in the community either as a consequence of human activity or because of natural range extensions. The majority of the non-native species exhibit deleterious ecological effects and are considered as invasive species. Almost all the ecosystems are at threat due to the deleterious effects of the introduced invasive species.  

The non-native species are the prime threat to the surroundings as they can modify habitats and change the ecosystem services and function, and may replace or crowd-out the local species. The non-native species are considered as the second-ranked major threat to biodiversity after habitat destruction like deforestation.  

These species threaten biodiversity as they can grow rapidly and can act as parasites or predators against the native species and do not possess any kind of natural predators so that the growth of the introduced species can be monitored. These species can act as competitors, as they compete with the local species for the resources available.

Bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPT I) contains six cysteine residues that form three disulfide bonds in the native structu
vlabodo [156]

Answer and Explanation:

Bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPT I) is a small globular protein and it inhibits the proteolytic enzymes like trypsin. BPTI is composed of ∝ helices, β sheets and 3 disulfide bonds. Due to these BPTI is a stable protein in its tertiary structure. It is almost inert to denaturation by urea and exhibits denaturation below 100 degree, only in highly acidic solutions. When all the disulfide bonds in BPTI are reduced, the protein is unfolded at room temperature and can reform three correct S-S pairings in native confirmation. if the 6 cysteine residues are reduced and unfolded in urea, the re-oxidation would yield 3 pairs with probability of first pair with 5, second pair with 3 and the third pair with 1 cysteine residues. Therefore, 5 x 3 x 1 = 15 combinations are possible accounting for 7% of protein refolding.

drek231 [11]

Answer:

Darwin conducted an experiment with breeding pigeons.

Explanation:

The pigeons provided the perfect animal to test his theory of selection for quite a number of reasons including its trait diversity from wing structures to color patterns to size to flight patterns. From these experiments he concluded that by natural selection of randomly occurring traits that make species better suited for survival and reproduction, evolve in the astounding diversity of organisms on Earth today.
