Resource partitioning

Resource partitioning refers to differences in resource use between species regardless of the origin of the differences. Similar species can coexist in the same ecological community without one pushing the others to extinction through competition. Species compete for the same resources which include nutrients and habitats which are the raw materials needed by organisms to grow, live, and reproduce. For the question given above, the divergence in lizards is an example of resource partitioning.

Which of the following is NOT a mechanism used to temporally regulate the activity of maturation-promoting factor (MPF)?
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

C. glycosylation

Explanation:

The maturation-promoting factor (MPF) is a cell cycle checkpoint that stimulates the passage from G2 (prophase) to M phase (metaphase). MPF also determines that DNA replication during the S (synthesis) phase did not produce any mutations. MPF is inactivated by kinase phosphorylation and activated by specific phosphatases capable of dephosphorylating this protein. On the other hand, glycosylation is a posttranslational modification where a carbohydrate (i.e., a glycan) is added to a functional group of another molecule. Many proteins undergo glycosylation, thereby playing a critical role in regulating protein function.

Look at the diagram. When this process happens in human cells, how many chromosomes will there
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

46 chromosomes

Explanation:

In mitosis (I think it is this process) the 46 chromosomes in cell A replicate themselves, so there are 92 in total in cell B. Then the chromosomes are pulled apart and the cell splits into 2 daughter cells, leaving 46 chromosomes in each.

You discover a population of mustard plants and find it to be at Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium with respect to the R locus. Suppose
natulia [17]

Answer:

The fraction of heterozygous individuals in the population is 32/100 that equals 0.32 which is the genotipic proportion for these endividuals.

Explanation:

According to Hardy-Weinberg, the allelic frequencies in a locus are represented as p and q, referring to the alleles. The genotypic frequencies after one generation are p² (Homozygous for allele p), 2pq (Heterozygous), q² (Homozygous for the allele q). Populations in H-W equilibrium will get the same allelic frequencies generation after generation. The sum of these allelic frequencies equals 1, this is p + q = 1.

In the exposed example, the r-6 allelic frequency is 0,2. This means that if r-6=0.2, then the other allele frequency (R) is=0.8, and the sum of both the allelic frequencies equals one. This is:

p + q = 1

r-6 + R = 1  

0.2 + 0.8 = 1

Then, the genotypic proportion for the homozygous individuals RR is 0.8 ² = 0.64

The genotypic proportion for the homozygous individuals r-6r-6 is 0.2² = 0.04

And the genotypic proportion for heterozygous individuals Rr-6 is 2xRxr-6 = 2 x 0.8 x 0.2 = 0.32

<span>A large complement of decomposers rapidly turns dead plant and animal matter into nutrients that are quickly taken up by plants. Also, some animals live on eating plants, other animals eat those that live on plants, and animals that live on eating other animals die to make nutrients that are eaten by plants; this also, is called an ecological food chain.</span>
