Red squirrels and gray squirrels have been the native species on an island for many years. A few years ago, black squirrels ente

red this island. The black squirrel is an invasive species. Invasive species aren’t native to the ecosystem. They move into an ecosystem because of natural changes or human intervention. Red squirrels and black squirrels have identical food requirements, but gray squirrels have a different diet. What THREE effects will these events have on the island’s squirrel population?
-The food availability of red squirrels may increase.
-The red and black squirrels will have to compete for nutrition.
-The food availability for gray squirrels will not be affected.
-The food availability for red squirrels may decrease.
-The food availability for gray squirrels will be affected.

The THREE effects on the island's squirrel will be The red and black squirrels will have to compete for nutrition:

  • The red and black squirrels will have to compete for nutrition: As the invasive specie will also require food for its survival so there will be competition for nutrition.
  • The food availability for red squirrels may decrease: As red and black squirrels have identical food requirements so because of competition there will be less availability of food for red squirrels
  • The food availability for gray squirrels will not be affected: The gray squirrel have different diet, there is no competition of food for them

I would say the food availability for gray squirrels will be affected because we do not know their diet. It also say that the red squirrels and the black squirrels have the same diets meaning less food on the Island for the grey squirrel( depending on what he eats. )

Genetic Variation:Question 8
Maurinko [17]

Answer: Genetic variation can be caused by mutation (which can create entirely new alleles in a population), random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis (which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring).

By the end of meiosis, the resulting reproductive cells, or gametes, each have 23 genetically unique chromosomes. The overall process of meiosis produces four daughter cells from one single parent cell.

Explanation:

During meiosis, homologous chromosomes (1 from each parent) pair along their lengths. The chromosomes cross over at points called chiasma. At each chiasma, the chromosomes break and rejoin, trading some of their genes. This recombination results in genetic variation.

Sugars are used for energy and what else??
skad [1K]

Answer:

The body uses sugars from carbohydrates which supply the brain with glucose as the brain uses it as a "fuel source".

<h2>Why is glucose so important for the brain?</h2>

Quick answer: It takes a lot of energy to receive, interpret, and send signals via your neurons. Glucose is the simples sugar that can be used to make energy.

Cells require energy to carry out their typical everyday tasks. The simplest sugar that our cells can utilize for energy is glucose. Since your neurons are specialized cells, many additional cells are also present to support or protect them. All of the senses you can experience utilizing incoming neurons (from the body to the brain) are transmitted to and interpreted by the brain, including touch, pain, vibration, temperature, smell, sight, hearing, taste, and others. Signal reception and interpretation need energy. Additionally, your brain instructs your body to "do" things, which uses energy. Additionally, you spend a significant portion of your waking hours "thinking," which consumes energy. This explains why 20% of the glucose in your body is used by our teeny, tiny, little brains.

Thank you,

Eddie
