Shifting biomes could have consequences for the regions in which the shifts occur. Read the two cases below and decide which con

sequences would apply to one or both cases.Case 1: The biome of a small agricultural community in the western United States changes from grassland to desert. A species of migrating duck, which can carry bird flu, goes locally extinct.Case 2: The biome in northern Russia changes from tundra to taiga. Timber harvesting in the region becomes possible. Arctic foxes go locally extinct and are replaced by red foxes that commonly carry rabies.Sort each consequence based on whether it would apply to Case 1, Case 2, or botha. increased risk of wildfiresb. local economy suffersc. carbon storage decreasesd. agricultural production decreasese. carbon storage increasesf. disease vector range changesg. decreased water availabilityh. local economy thrivesi. species range changesCase 1Case 2Cases 1 and 2

Answer:

increased risk of wildfires- both

local economy suffers- Case 1

carbon storage decreases - Case 2

agricultural production decreases - Case 1

carbon storage increases -  Case 1

disease vector range changes - Case 2

decreased water availability - Case 1

local economy thrives - Case 2

species range changes - Case 2

Explanation:

Fires are common to  taiga biomes. Owing to the fact that the biome in case 1 changed from an agricultural community to a grassland and subsequently to a desert, agricultural productivity will decrease, the local economy will suffer, water availability is decreased and local economy suffers as a consequence of desertification.

On the other hand, in case 2, the diseases vector range as well as species range changes due to the change in the species of foxes from Artic foxes to red foxes that carry rabies. Carbon storage decreases as the taiga biome acts as a carbon sink. The local economy thrives due to timber production.

Lastly, species range changes both in case 1 and case 2 since there is a loss of species. Species range is the area where a particular species can be found during its lifetime. Certainly, the range of area where species are found changed in cases 1 and 2.

Adult giraffes eat about 75 pounds of food in a day. On average, an area can provide 450 pounds of food per day for giraffes. Ba
densk [106]

Answer:

6 giraffes

Explanation:

If an area can provide 450 pounds of food for the giraffes and the giraffes eat 75 pounds of food per day, you can divide:

450 by 75= 6

6 giraffes is the capacity for that area

Restriction endonucleases are especially useful if they generate sticky ends. What makes an end sticky?
Mazyrski [523]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

A) single-stranded complementary tails

B) blunt ends

C) poly-A sequences

D) 5' cap

E) interference

Answer:

A) single stranded complementary tails

Explanation:

Restriction endonuclease is the enzyme which cuts the DNA sequence in the internal sequence.

The endonuclease enzyme can cut the DNA sequence in a way that it can form the cuts with the single-stranded overhangs called sticky ends and without overhangs called blunt ends.

The sticky ends are produced when the enzyme makes cut at the single strand and then makes the cut at between the same base at the nitrogenous base. This type of asymmetrical cut forms the single-stranded overhangs which can form the complementary base pairs easily.

Thus, Option-A is correct.

Why would it be hard to find the CO2 level if the light intensity were very low? HELP!!!!
drek231 [11]
If CO2 was in very small amounts then it would be the limiting factor of photosynthesis, this means the process will take place at a much slower rate because it is lacking one of the raw materials it needs for the process to occur. To find the optimum light intensity you really need all other factors to be at optimum levels or in abundance.
