How do you think predator and prey populations affect one another?

2 answers:

3 0

Predator and prey populations affect each other because if a predator of one prey kills that one animal than that animal dies and the prey decrease by one and when one predator dies from being killed or just naturally dying, then the predators decrease by one.

It’s like saying “If I eat you your population will go down “ but for preys case it’s “if you have less of me your population will decrease

How does artificial selection provide evidence for evolution by natural selection

Cloud [144]

Answer:

Natural selection is one of the mechanisms by which an organism evolve. In the natural selection when the trait of an organism allows the organism to grow and reproduce in an environment and nature selects it, it is then passed on to the generations and become permanent.

Artificial selection is also one of the mechanism of evolution in which instead of nature, the selection is made by humans like the breeding experiments on dogs and plant crops.

The artificial selection and natural selection are interlinked as in the artificial selection the trait selected by the humans were also selected by nature like the case of crops, the crossing between desired plants produced results which were useful to the humans but grew and reproduced only when the environment selected it to grow and reproduce.

How does the enzyme telomerase meet the challenge of replicating the ends of linear chromosomes?

maxonik [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is C) It catalyzes the lengthening of telomeres, compensating for the shortening that could occur during replication without telomerase activity.

Explanation:

While replicating, the ends of the chromosomes always lose a part of the ends, therefore, the telomerase catalyzes this growing process, somehow compensating the information that will be lost.

Different microbes grow in a wide variety of environmental conditions; however, most have preferences for certain temperatures,

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

this is a TRUE statement.

Explanation:

Different microbes grow in a wide variety of environmental conditions; however, most have preferences for certain temperatures, pH, and atmospheric gases because although microbes are widespread in their occurrence,they are found almost everywhere,in the air,water,soil,food,decaying matter,oil deposits,in plants etc.

but their number and their types vary according to the locality and environmental conditions.

Although, some microbes are always present and contribute towards natural flora BUT besides this others are present in specific environments such as some in hot springs bearing very HIGH TEMPERATURE RANGES for example: Thermus aquaticus.

some of them inhabit the acidic or alkaline soil feeding on HUMUS.

Most of the microbes prefer ATMOSPHERIC GASES i.e some require oxygen for their survival .For example: Pseudomonas.

some don't require O2 for survival i.e Spirochete.

IN SHORT, most of the microbes have preferences for various environmental conditions.
