This scientific study revealed that predation is the dominant factor affecting prey population on cycling. Population cycles is the feature where populations rise and fall over a predictable period of time. For example there are some species where population numbers have reasonably predictable patterns of change. From the study depicted in the question; when snowshoe hares are scarce, many lynx leave their home range in search of food. An increased predation of the hare due to high populations of lynx and other predators increases the decline in the hare population.

The probability of a ___________ channel being open is controlled by the membrane potential.
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

(b) Voltage gated

Explanation:

The cell membrane acts as a barrier that separates two aqueous media of different composition, the extracellular and the intracellular, regulating its composition. Most of the liposoluble drugs and solutes, when not ionized, directly cross the cell membrane through a passive diffusion process, which facilitates the passage of the medium where it is more concentrated to the one that is more diluted. The difference in concentration between the two media is called the concentration gradient, and diffusion will continue until this gradient is eliminated. According to Fick's law, the speed of this process will be much faster the higher the concentration gradient and the liposolubility of the molecule and the smaller its size.

More hydrophilic molecules, such as ions, are immiscible in membrane lipids and pass through specific specific transport mechanisms. In some cases, ions pass through hydrophilic pores called ion channels, and in others a favor of their concentration gradient is transported by binding to the transporter or transporter proteins. Both transport systems are passive and therefore do not consume energy. The great advantage is that the ion channels allow the flow of ions through a much higher speed than that of any other biological system. The flow of ions through each channel can be measured as an electric current, which is capable of producing rapid changes in membrane potential.

Land ___1___ includes human activities such as agriculture and construction. The modification of the Earth’s surface due to thes
MakcuM [25]
The correct options are as follows:
1. USE, B.
Land use refers to the function of a particular land, that is, what the land is been used for. For instance land can be used for agriculture, construction of roads, residential apartments, hotels, zoos, etc. Land use differs in the urban and rural settings. In the rural settings, land is usually used for farming and forestry while in the urban setting, land is usually used for construction purposes. 
2. LUC, OPTION B.
The modification of the earth's surface due to land use is called LAND USE CHANGE, LUC. A lot of changes occur when man use lands for different purposes. For instance, examples of land use change include: reduction in forest biomass, conversion of forest and grassland to pasture, etc,
