Answer:

(A). Shortage of food

Explanation:

Carrying capacity of an ecosystem for a population can be defined as the maximum number of individuals of an species that can sustain in that ecosystem indefinitely, given the habitat, food, water and other necessary sources.

If there would be shortage of food in lake, where otter population lives shortage of food would reduce the carrying capacity. This is because number of individuals that can be sustained by lake ecosystem will decrease due to unavailability of sufficient food.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

In which ways can the individual steps of this process be regulated to lead to higher or lower expression of a particular protei
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

There are many points at which eukaryotic gene expression can be controlled, through pretranscriptional control, transcriptional control, and posttranscriptional control

Explanation:

The pretranscriptional control determines the accessibility of chromatin to the transcription machinery. It is affected by supercoiling and methylation. It is also known as epigenetic regulation, and it does not depend on the sequence but on the conformation of the DNA.

While transcriptional control determines the frequency and / or speed of transcription initiation through the accessibility of the start sites, the availability of transcription factors and the effectiveness of promoters.

The post-transcriptional control is the one that is exercised once the transcript has finished synthesizing. It can be of several types:

• Maturation control: As the RNA adjustment can be made.

• Transport control: Most RNA has to go out to the cytoplasm to perform its function. For this they have to cross the pores of the nuclear membrane, where you can select the RNAs that will be transported and those that will not.

• Stability control: The half-life of RNA can be regulated by the expression of RNAs or mRNA stabilizing proteins in the cytoplasm.

• Translational control: It is exercised on the frequency with which the mRNAs begin to be translated. It can also affect the frequency with which proteins mature and the availability of enzymatic effectors.
