What is the trophic level of the moth larvae in the owl's ecosystem?

1 answer:

5 0

Moth larvae eats leaves of the plant. It is an herbivore, a primary consumer in food chain. The primary consumer occupies the second trophic level in owl's ecosystem. The moth larvae in turn is eaten by small bird, a secondary consumer. Thus small bird occupies the third trophic level. Small bird is eaten by an owl, a top consumer that occupies fourth trophic level.

Answer:

c) Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors may interfere with DNA replication by the host, not just by the virus.

Explanation:

A drug that targets the structures or processes specific to the pathogen or microbe has fewer side effects than the drugs that target the more general structures and processes exhibited by both the pathogen and host cells.

According to the given information, the nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors resemble thymine and terminate the process of DNA replication. Thymine base is also one of the nitrogenous bases present in the human cells and other organisms. Therefore, the nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors would terminate the process of DNA replication in both the virus and the host organism.

On the other hand, the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors specifically target the reverse transcriptase enzyme that is not present in host organisms. Therefore, the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors have fewer side effects than the nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors.

What were your predicted results for glucose transport in the presence of DNP? Briefly state the physiologic basis for your pred

Olegator [25]

Answer:

Prediction results for glucose transport in the presence of Dinitrophenol (DNP) are as following:

Decreased transport of glucose
DNP disrupts the gradient of protons and the output of ATP
ATP needed for the Na+/K+ pump to the est. Gradient Na+
The gradient required for Sodium-glucose cotransporters (SGLTs)

Dinitrophenol (DNP) is an uncoupler, or is capable of separating electron flow and H+ ion pumping for ATP synthesis. This means that ATP synthesis can not use the energy from electron transfer, hence it will support in lab as well.
