The
infected papaya trees will produce less carbohydrates or chemical energy for the toucan. If there were fewer carbohydrates within each papaya, the
toucan's muscle cells would not be able to obtain as much chemical energy as
they normally do. This chemical energy will be converted into mechanical energy
or heat flow, which the toucan uses to fly.
Therefore, the lower amount
of mechanical energy and heat flow from the muscle contractions, it would
result into a reduced amount of kinetic energy of motion when the toucan is
flying.
Answer: C. Preying
Explanation:
A non-native species is the species which is introduced to a new ecosystem. This species is introduced intentionally or accidentally to a new ecosystem by human beings or they may enter to the ecosystem by their own.
A non-native species can be invasive which means it can compete with the native species for resources like shelter, food and mates.
According to the given situation, the Gila trouts being the native species has been affected by the non-native Rainbow trout. This may be because of the fact that non-native species can be invasive for the native species. As the species is used as mate by the non-native species and they may become the prey of non-native species. This has resulted in the extinction of the species of Gila trouts.
We can infer of the two paragraphs that Geological movements are often hazardous when they happen quickly, and that the movement of plate boundaries does not always cause disaster.
The excerpt is telling us that "the <span>earthquakes caused a lot of damage, as well as dramatic changes to the local ecosystem", which is supporting the conclusion: "geological movements are often hazardous when they happen quickly."
But is also telling us that "</span>The slip caused several rock formations and structures to develop cracks. However there was no large-scale disaster or disruption.", which is supporting the conclusion: the movement of plate boundaries does not always cause disaster."
Answer: The correct option is E ( Intermediate filaments are unpolarized).
Explanation:
Intermediate Filaments are usually associated with cells that can withstand mechanical stress which includes claws of animals, hair and makes up the dead remnants of the epidermal cell of the skin. Therefore without the supporting network of intermediate filaments, an epithelium remains intact but the cells are prone to damage by abrasive forces.
Intermediate filaments are so named because they are thicker than actin filaments and thinner than microtubules or muscle myosin filaments
The properties or characteristics of an intermediate filaments that explains the lack of motor proteins is as a result of its subunits which are elongated, not globular and are associated in an anti-polar manner. Therefore, the overall filament has no polarity, and therefore no motor proteins move along intermediate filaments
