The correct answer is C. Newborn giraffes are capable of coordinated walking within an hour of birth, and running within 24 hours of birth.
Explanation:
In biology, k-selected species are species that have stable populations although they do not give birth to multiple offspring at once and individual offspring are mainly big animals that require more time to mature this makes parents invest more time and effort in them to guarantee they survive. According to this, giraffes can be classified as k-selected species because they usually have limited offspring (Giraffes rarely give birth to twins), they seem to mature slowly and offspring requires more care and time (giraffes begin mating at 6-7 years of age) and they are large when they are born (Giraffes are approximately 6’ tall and weigh 150 lbs at birth).
However, the fact "Newborn giraffes are capable of coordinated walking within an hour of birth, and running within 24 hours of birth" does not support the idea these animals are k-select species because this shows rapid maturation and little time and effort invested which is the opposite to k-selected species.
Habitat: Coyotes are able to easily adapt to different habitats. They can be found living anywhere from the Sonoran Desert to large, populated cities.
Food: Coyotes will eat nearly anything. They hunt rabbits, rodents, frogs, fish, and even deer. they also eat insects, snakes, fruit, and grass.
Reproductive Process: Reproduction<span> in the </span>coyote<span> is a very intricate </span>process<span>, as females are completely infertile for ten months out of the year, and males are sterile for eight. The </span>process<span> begins with several males vying for the attention of a single female.</span> In spring, females den and give birth to litters of three to twelve pups. Both parents feed and protect their young and their territory.
Human and Environmental Challenges: Coyotes face many challenges. They are often hunted by other larger animals. Humans also hunt them when they are interfering with their crops or livestock.
Migration pattern: <span>According to a study, coyotes migrated eastward via two main route: one that went through the northern United States, and one that went through the south. Oddly enough, the Northern and Southern coyotes seemed to meet midway</span>
The correct answer is option A. They either match up with a receptor molecule on the surface of the cell or enter the cell through the membrane.
The intercellular signals are the signals, which transfer the signals from one cell to the another and the intracellular signals are those signals, which carries message within the cell.
The intercellular signals may or may not be transferred through the gap junctions. The chemical signals are one of the type of the cell signals. The chemical signalling molecules generally have a receptor on the cells, where these molecules can bind and can be cause the activation of the cell. The chemical signals can also enter into the cells through active transport and facilitated diffusion. So, these type of transports does not go through the Gap junction.
