How do invasive species change the diversity index?

Biology
1 answer:
Nuetrik [128]3 years ago
4 0
An invasive species will often become dominant in which case the diversity index would decrease. This happens when the invasive species pushes out other species as it takes over the area. If the invasive species is unable to adapt, the diversity index would likely not change.

A student remarks that it is a good thing that humans discovered how to use industrial processes to fix nitrogen because this en
enyata [817]

Answer:

D. The statement is inaccurate because humans would not be able to distribute the product of nitrogen fixation from industrial processes in the same way that bacteria are able to distribute it globally now.

Explanation:

Nitrogen fixing bacteria has the responsibility in nature to trap and fix atmospheric nitrogen in ecosystems. They are very important components of the nitrogen cycle and play an important role in maintaining the balance  of nutrients in nature.

If humans discover industrial processes to fix nitrogen, the process will be unsustainable in the long run if nitrogen-fixing bacteria ever go extinct because humans would not be able to distribute the product of nitrogen fixation from industrial processes in the same way that bacteria are able to distribute it globally now across several ecosystems all over the world.

Two students are given cubic boxes, measuring 10 cm on a side. Robert puts a single glass marble with a
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Both boxes have the same amount of empty space

Explanation:

Given

Cube Box

Length = 10cm

Robert:

1 glass marble

Diameter = 10cm

Susan:

1000 glass marble

Diameter = 1cm

Required

Whose box has more empty space?

First, we need to calculate the volume of the cubic box.

Volume = Length^3

Substitute 10cm for Length

Volume = 10^3

Volume = 1000cm^3

Next, calculate the volume of Robert's glass

Volume is calculated as:

Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 ---- Volume of a sphere

Where

r = radius

r = \frac{1}{2} * Diameter

Diameter = 10cm --- Given

Substitute 10 for diameter

r = \frac{1}{2} * 10cm

r = 5cm

So:

Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

Volume = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{22}{7} * 5^3

Volume = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{22}{7} * 125

Volume = 523.8cm^3

Next, we determine the volume of Susan's 1000 glasses

Volume is calculated as:

Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 ---- Volume of a sphere

Where

r = radius

r = \frac{1}{2} * Diameter

Diameter = 1cm --- Given

Substitute 1cm for diameter

r = \frac{1}{2} * 1cm

r = 0.5cm

Substitute 0.5cm for radius in Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

Volume = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{22}{7} * 0.5^3

Volume = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{22}{7} * 0.125

Volume = 0.5238

But there are 1000 glasses.

So, the volume of 1000 glasses is:

Volume = 0.5238 * 1000

Volume = 523.8cm^3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For Robert:

Volume = 523.8cm^3

For Susan:

Volume = 523.8cm^3

Since, they have the same volume.

Both boxes have the same amount of empty space
