How did the extinction of the Dodo bird impact society?

Biology

Ksenya-84 [330]3 years ago
6 0

It’s commonly believed that the dodo went extinct because Dutch sailors ate the beast to extinction after finding that the bird was incredibly easy to catch due to the fact it had no fear of humans, (why it didn’t fear the creature many times its size is a mystery for another day). This is, for the for the most part, pretty accurate. It is noted that after sailors landed and settled on the island in 1598,  the dodo’s population rapidly declined and other sources confirm that the dodo was indeed hunted by sailors looking for an easy snack, since the dodo’s ungainly gait and lack of a third axis of movement made it relatively easy to catch.

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c) "It is necessary to have a completely functioning pentose phosphate pathway for a tissue to synthesize ribose phosphates".

Explanation:

While the pentose phosphate pathway is the most common way at which a tissue synthesize ribose phosphate, it is false to affirm that it is necessary for ribose phosphate synthesis. Tissues have alternatives to the pentose phosphate pathway to synthesize ribose phosphate. For instance, the nucleotide salvage or the salvage pathway allows tissues to synthesize ribose phosphate from intermediates in the degradative pathway for nucleotides.
