Complete Question:
The carrying capacity of the environment for a species is determined by:
options:
(a) the reproductive rate of the organism.
(b) the number of organisms of that species.
(c) the state and national wildlife laws pertaining to that species.
(d) the age distribution of that species.
(e) the limited availability of renewable resources in the environment and the environmental resistance to the biotic potential of the organism.
Answer: (e) the limited availability of renewable resources in the environment and the environmental resistance to the biotic potential of the organism.
Explanation: The carrying capacity refers to the highest number of the species that the environment can cater for, in terms of food, space and other necessities that supports life.
Thus, the available of renewable resources (i.e resources that can be reused after consumption e.g water) in the environment, plays as a determinant of the highest number of individuals an environment can support (carrying capacity).
Furthermore, environmental resistance to the biotic potential of the organism, is also a determinant of the carrying capacity of organisms inhabiting that particular environment.
The answer is d. The population of light-colored moths decreased and the population of dark-colored moths increased.
<span>Peppered moth color variation is a good example of natural selection. During the Industrial revolution, due to pollution, trees become darker in the urban area. Light-colored moths were, thus, easy prey. The dark-colored moths were able to camouflage on dark trees and avoid predators. The phenomenon is known as industrial melanism. So, in polluted urban areas, the number of dark-colored peppered moths increased. In the clean environment, were much effective in hiding from predators and they outnumbered the dark-colored moths.</span>
Answer:
Heterogeneous mixtures are substances not mixed together.
Explanation:
I hope that is right
Answer:
Mitosis results in two <u>diploid</u> daughter cells that have the same genetic makeup.
Meiosis results in four <u>haploid</u> cells that are all genetically different from each other.
I believe that the most contaminated are is the kitchen sink. Researchers say that the sink can contain up to 100,000 times more bacteria than the toilet seat. This is because the sink is where everything is slopped in.The sink should be washed with hot water and disinfected regularly to kill the harmful bacteria.
