It would be a loss in biodiversity , due to invasive species because the abandonment of pythons grew and they bred and had babies

The correct answer is B. A loss of biodiversity due to an invasive species

Explanation:

An invasive species refers to a non-native species that harm ecosystems because it disrupts the natural balance due to a lack of predators that cause the population to increase rapidly. In the case presented, the Burmese pythons can be classified as an invasive species because they were introduced into a new ecosystem, the Everglades.

Additionally, as most native species the pythons had a negative impact on this new environment reducing biodiversity as native species have decreased and are likely to disappear, which means there would be fewer species in the zone. This is likely the result of the exponential growth of pythons population as in this new ecosystem it is likely they do not have natural predators. Thus, this case can be described as "a loss of biodiversity due to an invasive species".

What type of ion channel is responsible for the depolarization phase of an action potential?
Ivenika [448]

The type of ion channels responsible for the depolarization phase of an action potential are Na+ (sodium) channels. Sodium ions flow inward through the sodium channels and cause an increase in the concentration of positively charged ions in the cell; this in turn, leads to depolarization.

C). 39g of Al(OH)3<br> I have science hw about moles ??? What does this mean
Gennadij [26K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

0.5 moles

Explanation:

moles are a way to compare different elements and are used a measurement of the amount of an element or molecule

I think your teacher wants you to convert 39g of Al(OH)3 to moles

we can use a method called stoichiometry to do this.

39g Al(OH)3 x 1 mol Al(OH)3 / 78g Al(OH)3 = 0.5 moles Al(OH)3

I got 78 by adding up the molar masses for Al, 3Os and 3Hs, make sure to add for 3 Os and Hs because of the subscript 3
