Assume there is a certain population of fish in a pond whose growth is described by the logistic equation. It is estimated that

the carrying capacity for the pond is 1500 fish. Absent constraints, the population would grow by 170% per year.
If the starting population is given by p0 = 400, then after one breeding season the population of the pond is given by p1 =.
After two breeding seasons the population of the pond is given by p2 =.

Answer:

The correct answer is  p1 = 898 and p2 = 1020.

Explanation:

This is a logistic growth problem and will utilize the following formula:  

Pn = P_{n-1} + r (1- \frac{P_{n-1} }{k} ) P_{n-1}

Given ;

r = 1.7

k = 1500

Po = 400

then,

Pn = 400 + 1.7 (1- \frac{400 }{1500} ) 400

= 400 + 1.7 (293)

= 400+ 498

P₁= 898

Similarly,

P₂= P_{2-1} + r (1- \frac{P_{2-1} }{k} ) P_{2-1}

= Pn = 400 + 1.7 (1- \frac{898 }{1500} ) 400

= 1020

Thus, the correct answer is  p1 = 898 and p2 = 1020.

Acetylcholine receptors on skeletal muscles are described as being ionotropic receptors because
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

they are Na+, K+ and Ca2+ ion channels.

Explanation:

Ionotropic acetylcholine receptors are also called nicotinic acetylcholine receptors because beside acetylcholine (Ch) they respond to nicotine. These receptors are  primary receptors in muscle for motor nerve-muscle communication that controls muscle contraction.

Two molecules of ACh are required for receptor to open. Since the receptors are  linked to ion channels, the channels open. Opening of the channel allows positively charged ions to move across it: sodium enters the cell and potassium exits.
