The correct answer is D. competition from other animals.

In any ecosystem, living organisms grow in a geometric progression and resources are grown in an arithmetic progression. Hence, resources such as food and space become limited. Short supply of resource cause competition for food, space among organisms. Competition may be interspecific or intraspecific. In interspecific competition for food and space among the individuals of different species. in intraspecific, competition among the individuals of same species. Therefore, to limit the size of a raccoon population, the living factor is the competition. Forest fire , a very cold winter  and the availability of water are non-living or abiotic factors.

Debora [2.8K]

Explanation:

The discoveries indicates that the rocks were formed over millions of years ago due to the age of fossils they contain.

Fossils are the preserved remains of life found in rocks. Most fossils are used in relative dating of rocks.

  • Dinosaurs are extinct organisms that once lived in the Mesozoic. This was about 100 million years ago.
  • Tool man also grazed the surface of the earth just a few thousands to a million years.
  • We are able to find their fossils in rocks because they have lived in some certain geologic periods.
  • Here we are using the fossils to date the rock and this is called relative dating

1.) Explain how you identified the chromosomes in order to place them in the correct pairs.
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

A chromosome is a DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) molecule with part or all of the genetic material (genome) of an organism. Most eukaryotic chromosomes include packaging proteins which, aided by chaperone proteins, bind to and condense the DNA molecule to prevent it from becoming an unmanageable tangle. This three-dimensional genome structure plays a significant role in transcriptional regulation.Chromosomes are normally visible under a light microscope only when the cell is undergoing the metaphase of cell division (where all chromosomes are aligned in the center of the cell in their condensed form). Before this happens, every chromosome is copied once (S phase), and the copy is joined to the original by a centromere, resulting either in an X-shaped structure (pictured here) if the centromere is located in the middle of the chromosome or a two-arm structure if the centromere is located near one of the ends. The original chromosome and the copy are now called sister chromatids. During metaphase the X-shape structure is called a metaphase chromosome. In this highly condensed form chromosomes are easiest to distinguish and study.In animal cells, chromosomes reach their highest compaction level in anaphase during chromosome segregation.

Chromosomal recombination during meiosis and subsequent sexual reproduction play a significant role in genetic diversity. If these structures are manipulated incorrectly, through processes known as chromosomal instability and translocation, the cell may undergo mitotic catastrophe. Usually, this will make the cell initiate apoptosis leading to its own death, but sometimes mutations in the cell hamper this process and thus cause progression of cancer

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The options

A) rapidly increase.

B) rapidly decline.

C) gradually increase.

D) gradually decline.

E) remain unchanged.

The CORRECT ANSWER IS D)

D) gradually decline.

Explanation:

It will decline gradually. The causative factor for the natural deterioration is not shown when only mature adults are kept. The most apparent and favourable use of slot limits. The average median is notably observed when younger ones experience natural deterioration, middle ones are plucked with the majority of the mature ones continuing to be preserved.

In situation where the longer ones are left in captivity slowly, they tend to show more caring capacity, while those who are not kept in captivity will continue heavily and results to a reduction in length, but gradually.
