European Starlings have a significant impact on their environment because they congregate in such large numbers. They probably play a role in seed dispersal because of their consumption of a wide variety of fruits. European Starlings also control some insect populations, but since they will eat almost anything they cannot be relied upon to eat only pests. Insects they are known to feed on include the larvae of craneflies (Tipulidae) and moths (Lepidoptera) as well as mayflies (Ephemeroptera), dragonflies and damsel flies (Odonata), grasshoppers (Orthoptera), earwigs (Dermaptera), lacewings (Neuroptera), caddis flies (Trichoptera), flies (Diptera), sawflies, ants, bees and wasps (Hymenoptera) and beetles (Coleoptera). They will also eat small vertebrates such as lizards and frogs, as well as snails (Gastropoda) and earthworms (Annelida). European Starlings have a particular technique of inserting their closed bill into the ground or an object and then prying the bill open, creating a small hole. This allows them to forage efficiently in soil and among roots as well as in feed troughs and on the backs of ungulates where they search for ectoparisites.
The following are the types of nervous system and their functions.
1. Parasympathetic- functions as the relaxing response.
2. Sympathetic - functions as the flight and fight response.
3. Autonomic - it functions as the controller of automatic response.
4. Somatic- functions as controling voluntary response.
5. Peripheral- works as motor nerves and sensory which runs from and to central nervous system.
6. Central- works as the main interpretation and center of processing.
Answer:
Kinases would stop working too.
Explanation:
Cells work constantly to maintain homeostasis or equilibrium within themselves. One of the mechanisms used for this purpose is feedback. As mentioned in the question, kinases put phosphates on proteins, and then, phosphatases take them off. Therefore, for phosphatases to work, kinases must be working at the same pace. By inhibiting the phosphatases the number of phosphate-proteins will be too high. This can be perceived by the kinases and they will automatically stop working since there's an excess of product. That process is called feedback.
Answer:
Answer is D. Tension
Explanation:
Tension headache is a type of headache that can be described as feeling of dull or moderate pain in the head, which can be inform of a tightness around the head and the neck.Tension headache is also known as stress headache.
It has been discovered that, various activities like driving for a long period of time, staring to a computer for a long period and exposure to cold temperature, can cause tension headache.
The following activities can be developed to reduce or avoid tension headache.
* Drinking a lot of water.
* Regular exercise.
* Sleeping very well
* Limiting stress
* Eating foods like almond and walnut.
In this case, the complaint of a 'pressure' type headache to the back of the head and neck by the man, was a typical feeling ,synonymous to tension headache.
Answer:
Natural selection disrupts the genetic equilibrium by favoring the genes for the traits that impart survival advantage to individuals.
Explanation:
Natural selection refers to the unequal survival rate of individuals of a population due to the presence of some beneficial adaptive genetic trait. These individuals are able to survive more and leave more progeny. Over generations, the population has increased number of these individuals leading to evolution of a population with different allele frequencies.
For example, the frequency of gene for antibiotic resistance in the bacterial population was increased once humans started using antibiotics to control the bacterial population. This led to the evolution of the bacterial population with antibiotic resistance.
