Answer:

The correct option would be A. It drops quickly to zero once the temperature goes below freezing.

Carrying capacity is defined as the number of organisms (animals, plants, crops, or birds) a region can support without getting degraded.

The temperature in the northern New York forest can drop below freezing during winters. Due to this, insects either migrate the place or spend winters as eggs, larvae, nymphs, or pupae.

It resulted in the unavailability of insects or food for insectivorous birds due to which carrying capacity of a region quickly drops to zero.

Please help!!

Answer:

Bone marrow, amniotic fluid, and brain

Explanation:

In the choices, I notice that liver is also a part of Adult stem cells but so are the ones I mentioned.

Adult stem cells are found in small numbers in most adult tissues. To not get confused by embryonic stem cell, adult stem cells are there to replace dead cells throughout the growing process of a human which is also called somatic stem cells but this type of cells helps with the brain, bone and fluid

Hope this helped :)

Allow for the identification of many toxins in a small amount

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

O4) Screening tests

Explanation:

The screening test is used to make early detection of diseases in order to apply effective treatments. For example, a screening blood test enables the identification of toxins and/or drugs in the patient's system in a relatively low amount of time (generally 24 hours). This bioassay is used for the toxin determination of the effluent sample (i.e., a sample collected and analyzed to evaluate system performance) to the tested species. The screening test generally consists of applying two treatments (i.e., one effluent sample and one control).

Answer:

i think is a but im not sure but i hope it helps.

Explanation:

During a baseball game, a player’s ball hit into the outfield is modeled by the equation h = –16t2 + 65t. A bird flying across the field follows the path modeled by the equation h = 8t + 20. Let t be the time since the ball is hit and h be the height.

What is air pressure? At what elevation is air pressure the highest? Why?

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

With greater depth of the atmosphere, more air is pressing down from above. Therefore, air pressure is greatest at sea level and falls with increasing altitude. On top of Mount Everest, which is the tallest mountain on Earth, air pressure is only about one-third of the pressure at sea level.

Which describes the process of fermentation?

xxMikexx [17]

Explanation:

anaerobic process that restores NAD+ supply

Within cells, aerobic respiration may not occur due to several factors:

- a lack of inorganic, final electron acceptors
-incomplete or lack of a complete electron transport system
-missing genes for enzymes within the Kreb's cycle

Thus, they utilize other means for the generation of energy in the form of ATP and to replenish NAD+ an oxidized form of NADH, the main electron carrier in glycolysis. Pyruvate is produced in the cytoplasm via glycolysis- it is also used as an electron acceptor in a process called fermentation.

Further Explanation:

overall: C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≈38 ATP

In all eukaryotic cells mitochondria are small cellular organelles bound by membranes, these make most of the chemical energy required for powering the biochemical reactions within the cell. This chemical energy is stored within the molecule ATP which is produced. Respiration in the mitochondria utilizes oxygen for the production of ATP in the Krebs’ or Citric acid cycle via the oxidization of pyruvate( through the process of glycolysis in the cytoplasm).

Oxidative phosphorylation describes a process in which the NADH and FADH2 made in previous steps of respiration process give up electrons in the electron transport chain these are converted it to their previous forms, NADH+ and FAD. Electrons continue to move down the chain the energy they release is used in pumping protons out of the matrix of the mitochondria.

This forms a gradient where there is a differential in the number of protons on either side of the membrane the protons flow or re-enter the matrix through the enzyme ATP synthase, which makes the energy storage molecules of ATP from the reduction of ADP. At the end of the electron transport, three molecules of oxygen accept electrons and protons to form molecules of water...

Glycolysis: occurs in the cytoplasm 2 molecules of ATP are used to cleave glucose into 2 pyruvates, 4 ATP and 2 electron carrying NADH molecules. (2 ATP are utilized for a net ATP of 2)
The Citric acid or Kreb's cycle: in the mitochondrial matrix- 6 molecules of CO2 are produced by combining oxygen and the carbon within pyruvate, 2 ATP oxygen molecules, 8 NADH and 2 FADH2.
The electron transport chain, ETC: in the inner mitochondrial membrane, 34 ATP, electrons combine with H+ split from 10 NADH, 4 FADH2, renewing the number of electron acceptors and 3 oxygen; this forms 6 H2O, 10 NAD+, 4 FAD.
