You discover a new species of bacteria that grows in aquatic environments with high salt levels. While studying these bacteria,

you note that their internal environment is similar to the salt concentrations in their surroundings. You also discover that the internal salt concentrations of the bacteria change as the salt concentration in their environment changes. The new species can tolerate small changes in this way but dies from large changes because it has no mechanism for altering its own internal salt levels. What type of homeostatic mechanism is this species using to regulate its internal salt levels?

Answer:

The type of homeostatic mechanism that this species is using to regulate its internal salt levels is  conformation.

Explanation:

A conformation homeostasis can be described as a type of homeostasis which occurs in the bodies of an organism which live in an environment for a long period of time. In this way, organisms do not have to make much effort to maintain homeostasis in that kind of  environment.

For example, the bacterial which lived in high salt conditions changed its internal conditions according the environment.

Describe two reasons why the use of synthetic fertilizers is not the answer to decreasing soil quality
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Two reasons why the use of synthetic fertilizers is not the answer to decreasing soil quality are:

  • They increase the nitrate levels in the soil which is a rich supplement for nitrogen needed by plants for their growth.
  • They are easily available and user-friendly but should be used in regulated amounts as an excess of nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus present in synthetic fertilizers enter the aquatic ecosystem.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Synthetic fertilizers are made up of three main nutrients, viz, nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus. All of these are required for the proper growth of plants.  Though, these fertilizers give higher yields, yet their excessive use is bad for aquatic ecosystems.

When these fertilizers are used in excessive amounts, they reduce the dissolved oxygen in the water as there’s an increase of bacteria and algae in the water.  That is why such fertilizers should be used in regulated amounts.

Explain why humans cannot impact one of earth systems without impacting the others
WINSTONCH [101]
Because earth has natural cycles it goes through with ecosystems, and when we get involved with trying to help one spectrum of the natural world (rabbits for example) we hurt another (wolves, by over feeding, increasing the population, then exhausting the population of rabbits over a time.)

Hope this helps u!! If u have any questions just message me & more than welcome to help u on Brainly.com :)

1. The right answer is cellular respiration.

Cellular respiration allows the production of ATP through the breakdown of glucose assisted by oxygen. We talk about aerobic metabolism. This metabolism is to oppose the fermentation which is done without oxygen (anaerobic) and that we detail in another file. Cellular respiration is divided into two phases, one cytoplasmic and the other mitochondrial.


2. The right answer is Chloroplasts transform light energy into chemical energy.

Chloroplasts convert solar energy into chemical energy, which are carbohydrates.

Chloroplasts (or plastids) are present in all plant cells (with the exception of some unicellular species that lack them). Located in the cytoplasm of the cell, containing chlorophyll and providing photosynthesis.


3. The right answer is It is constructed by connecting smaller monomer subunits.

Cellulose is a linear homopolymer composed of very numerous units of D-Anhydroglucopyranose (AGU) interconnected by β- (1 → 4) glycosidic linkages. The repetition pattern is the cellobiose dimer. The AGUs are in chair conformation and have 3 hydroxyl functions: 2 secondary alcohols (in position 2 and 3) and a primary alcohol (in position 6). These hydroxyl functions, as well as the glycoside bonds, are in equatorial position with respect to the plane of the cycle, which therefore causes the hydrogens of the ring to be in the axial position.

The degree of polymerization differs enormously depending on the origin of the cellulose; its value can vary from a few hundred to a few tens of thousands.


4. The right answer is Chloroplasts convert light energy into chemical energy that can be used by mitochondria.

Mitochondria and chloroplasts are organelles (organ-like cell elements) of the cytoplasm with a double membrane (inner membrane and outer membrane) and multiply as bacteria by division or budding.

Mitochondria are present in animal and plant cells, they allow the synthesis of proteins and are between 0.5 microns to 7 microns; chloroplasts are characteristic of plant cells, they capture sunlight and are the source of photosynthesis.


5. The right answer is homeostasis.

Homeostasis biological process that allows constants of the internal environment of the organism necessary for its proper functioning to be maintained (in limited values).

The whole regulation of homeostasis is through the autonomic nervous system (autonomic nervous system) and endocrine (hormonal) glands.


7. The right answer is chloroplast.

Chloroplasts are located in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic photosynthetic cells. In algae of the genus Chlamydomonas, there is a chloroplast per cell, usually bell-shaped and occupying a large part of the cytoplasm.

In the higher plants, most aerial parts contain them, and the leaves contain the most. Their favorite place is especially the mesophyll of the leaf where each cell can contain several tens of chloroplasts. Various aerial tissues do not contain much: epidermis-coating cells, aquiferous stomatal cells (groups of cells that evacuate water from certain leaves). In general, non-exposed tissue cells such as roots do not have them.


8. The right answer is It allows passage of particles into and out of the cell.

Membrane proteins are one of the three major classes of proteins besides fibrous proteins and globular proteins.

The functions of membrane proteins can be

*Signaling: Receptors coupled to G proteins

*Energy conversion: Photosynthetic reaction center ATP synthase

*Transport: Such as ABC Transporters, Potassium Channel, Aquaporins


10. The right answer is Only active transport requires ATP.

It is a transport of molecules against a concentration gradient that uses metabolic energy.

Permeases have a high specificity with respect to molecules.

There may also be saturation of the carrier.

The "ABC transporter" transport system is present in bacteria (ATP binding cassette transporters): it is a transporter with two hydrophobic trans-membrane domains associated on the cytoplasmic side with two nucleotide binding domains.

A population of panthers lives in the southeastern united states. over 50 years, the size of the panther population in the regio
Daniel [21]

more panthers were born than died. more panthers were born than died

The population of the Florida panther once dwindled to below two dozen, but it has since rebounded to more than 200

<h3>What is the panther population in Florida ?</h3>

Today there are only 120 to 130 Florida panthers left in the wild. They are found in southern Florida in swamplands such as Everglades National Park and Big Cypress National Preserve

  • Florida's largest wild cat species, the panther is critically endangered, but has been making a slow and steady comeback since numbers sunk to just 20 individuals in the 1970's. As of 2021, most estimates place the present day population at around 200.

  • By far the greatest threats to Florida panthers are habitat loss, fragmentation and degradation — all driven by Florida's burgeoning human population and the developments and highways that accommodate it.
