Answer:

Decades of destructive fishing has resulted in the precipitous decline of key fish stocks such as bluefin tuna and Grand Banks cod, as well as collateral impacts to other marine life. Hundreds of thousands of marine mammals, seabirds, and sea turtles are captured each year, alongside tens of millions of sharks.

It is the same as creating more pests or setting up dominant species which upset the ecological food pyramid leading to decimation of trophic levels or predators and energy cycling. Fishes feed on microscopic algae and animals the primary base of the food chain in water, if they are not checked they will choke the rivers and oceans causing toxic waters. Fish feed to contain them, in the process they grow and increase in numbers but their population is checked by bigger fishes and so on till it reaches a top predator which is usually a large animal.

A neuron can receive thousands of EPSPs from different neurons, and responds by triggering or not triggering an action potential

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The addition and response to the net effect of postsynaptic potentials is called Spatial summation

Explanation:

Signal summation occurs when impulses received by a neuron are eummed together to reach the excitation threshold to fire a neuron. It occurs at the axon hillock of a neuron. Signal summation occurs since each neuron is connected to many other neurons, often receiving multiple impulses from them, both excitatory and inhibitory.

Signal summation can either be temporal or spatial.

Temporal summation, occurs when impulses received at the same place on the neuron in close temporal succession add up to initiate an action potential in the neuron.

Spatial summation occurs when impulses received simultaneously at different places on the neuron add up to initiate an action potential in the neuron.

If there is a mutation in a zygote, where is it likely to be found in the fetus?

lisabon 2012 [21]

The correct answer is C.
The zygote is a single fertilized egg cell that the embryo develops from.
This one cell possesses one copy of DNA that is going to be passed to all other cells in the embryo because all other cells of the embryo develop through mitotic divisions of the zygote.
Therefore, if a mutation happens in the zygote DNA, all of the cells in the embryo are going to have it as well.
