Can you explain the first part a little more
Answer:
b) At equilibrium, the species composition of an island will not change.
Explanation:
The Theory of Island Biogeography written by Robert H. MacArthur and Edward O. Wilson (1967) is an essential book for any professional working in biogeography, biodiversity, ecology, conservation and related fields. The theory of island biogeography states that species diversity on islands tends to approach a dynamic equilibrium due to the balance between colonization (inmigration), speciation and extinction. At equilibrium, the species composition of an island will change, precisely at the time that immigration and extinction processes maintain the number of species in a dynamic equilibrium, thereby maintaining species diversity. In this case, the colonization rate represents a function of distance to the continent (or other islands), the extinction rate is a function of the size of the island and habitat heterogeneity, and speciation is a function of time. This book also contains a series of useful considerations: 1-the number of species in an area is directly associated with the size of the area; 2-large islands support more diverse communities than small islands; 3-the viability of populations on island systems can be considered as a function of the island size and its proximity to the mainland (or other islands); and 4- when a habitat is lost the remaining fragmented area may lose some of its important species.
C.18
in middle school we are told the levels are 2,8,8 but once you reach high school, you find out the third level actaully can hokd up to 18.
Answer:
The answer is C (UAAGCUCGU)
Explanation:
T is replaced by U in RNA and A and U "bind". In this case, we're looking for the complementary RNA strand, so all terms are opposite; G becomes C, A becomes U, etc.
