Testable, possible explanation for a scientific problem
The correct answer is option D, difficulty of redesigning workable ecosystems
Reason -
The area that was redesigned into an ecosystem actually failed to attract the endangered species of clapper rails in California because of the following two reasons –
a) Failed attempt of restoration of Cord grass ( a tree which is a dominant tree in the nesting habitat of clapper rail) . Even if few such trees were there they could not grow to their full height and thus were incapable of providing adequate nesting cover
b) Due to the lack of predatory insect, some herbivore insect in the ecosystem attacked the green grasses thereby making the nesting inadequate.
Answer:
C) generally consist of 1,000 different substances
Explanation:
Metabolites are compounds, usually organic, that participate in the chemical reactions that take place at the cellular level. The set of these biochemical reactions, together with the intracellular physical-chemical processes, constitutes the cellular metabolism, the molecular basis of life. The metabolism includes the degradation of molecules for obtaining energy (catabolism) and the synthesis of molecules necessary for growth, reproduction and repair (anabolism).
The succession of metabolic reactions that transform a given initial substance into another is known as a metabolic pathway. The starting substance is known as a substrate or raw material. The final substance is usually known as the final product or metabolite (a metabolic pathway can generate several final products) and the intermediate substances as intermediate metabolites. An intermediate or final metabolite in one metabolic pathway may be the substrate in another, which makes the vast majority of metabolic pathways interconnected.
Metabolites can be classified into two large groups, primary and secondary. Primary metabolites are defined as those that are directly involved in the normal growth, development and reproduction of an organism with an important physiological function. On the contrary, secondary metabolites are not directly involved in these processes. The absence of a primary metabolite usually leads to immediate or short-term death while the absence of a secondary metabolite does not.
<em>According to the different types and diverse functions that fulfill there are an immense amount of metabolites</em>
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Ecological relationships exist between organisms in an ecosystem. MUTUALISM is one of these ecological relationships in which both organisms involved benefits from the relationship. It usually occurs in a way that the actions of one favors the other.
In this example, the bees feed on nectar produced by the flower a plant and carries pollen along when it feeds on the nectar produced by the flower of another plant. The bees are getting fed, thanks to the plant, while the plant is getting cross-pollinated, thanks to the bee.
