Indicator species may provide useful substitute for large scale surveys to monitor biodiversity. Weconducted surveys in the Afro-alpine habitats of the Bale Mountains National Park (BMNP) with theobjective of identifying indicators for the species richness of the raptor guild. Raptors were countedby scan sampling technique from a suitable vintage point. Three classes of 18 sample units groupedaccording to the variability of the moorland ecosystem in the magnitude of process variables importantfor raptor species richness were used in determining the indicator value of species as a function of their abundance concentration and the percentage of species occurrence per sample group. Thisprocedure determined indicator values for all species in the resident raptor community. Comparisonwith randomly expected values demonstrated that only<span> Aquila verreauxii</span>and<span> A. chrysaetos</span>haveindicator values that were significantly larger than the randomly expected values. The species richnessestimated using the abundances of these two species predicted the observed species richness of thewhole community in a linear regression model that explained 66% of the deviance in the data set.Furthermore, the species richness of the community predicted by process variables had correlation of very high significance with that predicted by the indicator species. We have thus identified twoindicator species to a raptor guild of the BMNP and demonstrated that these two species encapsulatedmost of the information regarding the species richness response of the guild to key process variablesin the Afro-alpine moorland ecosystem. Our findings contribute significantly to current and futureefforts of monitoring the biodiversity of the park providing a cheap and quick means of data generation<span>relevant for making management decisions. Hope this helped! :)</span>
C. alive. The vaccine contains a live strain of varicella-zoster (chicken pox) virus which has been attenuated so that it will stimulates the immune system but does not cause any disease in healthy people.
Answer:
Cooperating
Explanation:
Cooperation is "the process of working together" so if you and your friends are working together, you are cooperating. Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
Autocrine = Autocrine signaling is a form of cell signaling in which a cell secretes a hormone or chemical messenger (called the autocrine agent) that binds to autocrine receptors on that same cell, leading to changes in the cell.This can be contrasted with paracrine signaling, intracrine signaling, or classical endocrine signaling.
Juxtacrine = Juxtacrine signalling (or contact-dependent signalling) is a type of cell–cell or cell–extracellular matrix signalling in multicellular organisms that requires close contact.
Endocrine = Endocrine signaling occurs when endocrine cells release hormones that act on distant target cells in the body. Endocrine signaling can be distinguished from two other types of signaling: neural signaling and paracrine signaling. ... Neurons are connected to their target cells via synapses.
Paracrine = Paracrine signaling is a form of cell signaling or cell-to-cell communication in which a cell produces a signal to induce changes in nearby cells, altering the behaviour of those cells.
