Answer: The population size that the environment can sustain.

Explanation:    

The carrying capacity can be defined as the maximum number of individuals of the population of a species which an ecosystem can support and sustain in terms of availability of resources such as water, food, shelter and other needs. When the population of the species exceeds the carrying capacity of the ecosystem the population starts declining to maintain the number which a carrying capacity of the ecosystem can sustain. On the basis of the above information, The population size that the environment can sustain. is the correct option.

How are hydrogen bonds different from covalent bonds?
Marrrta [24]
Hydrogen bonds differ from covalent bonds. Hydrogen bonds form due to the positive charge of a molecule being attracted to the negative charge of a water molecule.

This is due to water being a polar substance. Polar substances have covalent bonds where the electrons are shared unequally. This creates a slight charge at each end of the molecule. This charge is what creates a hydrogen bond between a water molecule and another molecule. Hydrogen bonds are weaker than covalent bonds.

The solution is B.

If you were using cladistics to build a phylogenetic tree of cats, which of the following would be the best outgroup?
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer: a. Wolf

Explanation:

A phylogenetic tree is a diagrammatic representation in which the premitive living species are compared with the modern organisms on the basis of morphological as well as genetic similarities and differences. Hence, they are separated into distinct groups.

All the given organisms in the options (wolf, domestic cat, lion, and leopard) belong to the vertebrata phyllum. Among the options given all the organisms, except wolf, the other organisms are morphologically close to one other. Thus for constructing a phylogenetic tree for these organisms, wolfs will be an out-group. The other organisms will be the descendent belonging to the same group.
