Toucans disperse seeds of key forest species such as juçara palms by eating the fruit and defecating the seeds in new locations,

sometimes more than a kilometer away. If there are no toucans, is the genetic diversity of palms likely to increase or decrease within forest fragments (and why)?

Answer:

Toucans disperse seeds of key forest species such as juçara palms by eating the fruit and defecating the seeds in new locations, sometimes more than a kilometer away. If there are no toucans, is the genetic diversity of palms likely to increase or decrease within forest fragments (and why)?

The genetic diversity of palm will totally decrease as a result of absence of Toucans dispersal of palms seeds which would not allow the seeds to be randomly grown anywhere. Dispersal has great impact on biodiversity of fruits because it enables the distribution of seeds to be grown everywhere

How are primary and secondary succession similar and how are they different?
stepladder [879]
They are similar to those of primary succession, primary succession occurs in an area without any initial. Succession always begins on a barren surface, whereas secondary succession be gains in environments that already possess soil. I hope this helps.

If a branch is cut from a tree ,after some hours the stem remains firm explain<br> ?
hjlf

Answer:

The leaves no longer have water, which means that there is little osmotic pressure which keeps it turgid.

Explanation:

The stem still contains water because of the capillary action that occurs. However, since there is no strong attraction, the water cannot be pulled to the leaves.

What is the sequence of travel by an impulse through the cardiac conduction system?
adoni [48]

The sequence of impulse through the cardiac conduction system starts from SA node passes to AV node to atrioventricular bundle fibers and finally to Purkinje fibers.

Heart is an organ that receives oxygenated blood form lungs and deoxygenated blood from different parts of body. Oxygenated blood is transported to different organs and deoxygenated blood is transported to lungs for oxygenation.

Now, to perform this transportation, the auricles and ventricles of heart contract and relax. In order to contract and relax, impulse generation is required, which begins at SA node or Sinoatrial node. It is also referred to as pacemaker of the heart. SA node contracts the atria and the impulse transfers to AV node or Atrioventricular node.

This is followed by transfer of impulse to atrioventricular bundle fibers which further passes it on to Purkinje fibres for ventricular contraction. Now the blood is sent to lungs and aorta as per it's oxygen status.

A woman who is a carrier for hemophilia marries a hemophiliac man. What will be their children’s possible phenotypes?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Hemophilia is a sex-linked recessive disorder in which a person's blood do not clots and he can bleed to death even after minor injuries because blood will keep running due to a small cut.

It is a recessive trait which means that even if one normal gene is present along with Hemophiliac gene, the person will not have the disease and he will be the carrier.

Question: What will be their children’s possible phenotypes?

If a woman who is a carrier for hemophilia marries a hemophiliac man, their genotypes can be denotes as :

Here H, indicate normal gene and small h indicate defected (hemophilia) gene.

Parents:                      XHXh                   X           XhY

Offspring:                   XHXh : XHY:  XhXh:  XhY

Phenotype of offspring:

XHXh:  The child will be daughter and normal (25 % chances)

XHY:     The child will be son and normal (25 % chances)

XhXh:   The child will be girl and Hemophiliac (25 % chances)

XhY:      The child will be son and Hemophiliac (25 % chances)

Hope it helps!
