A group of students run a simulation of resource consumption in which cereal is used to model a resource. The students use tweez

ers to pick up pieces of cereal one at a time and place them in a cup. The group runs the simulation two times, keeping all factors the same except the number of students allowed to collect the cereal at the same time. What variable are the students most likely testing?
A. Conservation method

B. Use of technology

C. Population size

D. Evenness of distribution

<u>Answer</u>: C. Population size

The students are trying to simulate the effects on a food resource which different population sizes may have. Each number of students per week represent different population sizes.

Answer: C. Population size

Explanation:

Because it is mentioned that all factors were kept the same, except for "number of students allowed to collect cereal at the same time" and this represents a change in the number of members in a population, which determines the size of the popuation itself.

Elephant seals are abundant in their population size but they have low genetic diversity within their species due to overhunting
Anastasy [175]
<h2>Genetic diversity </h2>

Explanation:

If the environment changes, the species runs the risk of not having the genetic diversity to be adaptable to that change and could go extinct

  • Genetic diversity is the diversity  or genetic variability within species
  • The huge variety of different gene sets defines an individual or a whole population's ability to tolerate stress from any given environmental factor
  • While some individuals might be able to tolerate an increased load of pollutants in their environment, others carrying different genes might suffer from infertility or even die under the exact same environmental conditions;the former will continue to live in the environment the latter will either have to leave it or die
  • Any change in the environment - natural or human induced causes a selection of events that only the fittest survive
  • In case of elephant seals,overhunting reduces the sum of genes available,thus leaving behind a population that is less capable of tolerating any further natural or human disturbances in environment
  • The loss of genetic diversity within a species can result in the loss of useful and desirable traits
