Organisms can have positive or negative impacts on the ecosystem they live in. The cane toad, or Rhinella marina, was introduced

to the Hawaiian Islands in 1932 by sugar cane farmers. Farmers released the toads in their crops to help control pests that were damaging the sugar cane. The cane toad has few natural predators, as it secretes a poisonous toxin from its skin that deters larger organisms from eating it. As a result, the cane toad population thrived and grew to number hundreds of thousands by 1935.

Answer:

invasive species

Explanation:

When an exotic species proliferates wildly and becomes a potential threat to other species and the ecosystem, we call these species invasive. An example of this is cane toad that has proliferated uncontrollably as it has almost no predators.

An invasive species is characterized by reproducing rapidly, having good dispersibility and being resistant to environmental changes, coping well in a diversity of environment and with environmental stress. We may have invasive species that are natural in the country, but from a different biome than the one they are invading.

Answer:

E

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel discovered the principles that governs heredity. In one of his experiments, he discovered that an organism receives two forms of a gene called ALLELE from each parent. He realized that one allele is capable of masking the expression of its variant pair in a gene. He called the allele that masks or is expressed, DOMINANT allele while the allele that is masked, RECESSIVE allele. He termed this principle the LAW OF DOMINANCE.

The above explained law of dominance is what applies in the question here. When the homozygous round allele and wrinkled allele were crossed, the allele for round seeds are dominant over the allele for wrinkled seeds (recessive) i.e. in a heterozygous state (combination of the different alleles), the round allele will mask the phenotypic expression of the wrinkled allele, expressing itself over it.

What happens if a cell is unable to divide by mitosis
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

When this happens, sometimes the cell commits a special type death is called apoptosis. Apoptosis, otherwise known as programmed cell death, ensures that if mitosis goes wrong and cannot be fixed, the cell does not continue to divide, as this would lead to the production of mutant cells that might cause problems.
