Answer:

The Diaphragm

Explanation:

"As the diaphragm contracts, it increases the length and diameter of the chest cavity and thus expands the lungs. The intercostal muscles help move the rib cage and thus assist in breathing." - https://www.merckmanuals.com/home/lung-and-airway-disorders/biology-of-the-lungs-and-airways/control-of-breathing

Answer:

1. Minimum viable population is the estimate of the fewest number of organisms a population needs to avoid extinction.

2. The measurement will most likely stay the same if the number of offspring each female in the population produces increases.

3. If the death rate increases, this measurement will most likely increase.

Explanation:

Minimum Viable Population:

  • Minimum viable population is an ecological threshold that signifies the minimum number of individuals required to prevent the species from going extinct.
  • MVP determines population conservation benchmarks.
  • MVP also helps in keeping a population genetically diverse as a limited number of individuals present limited mating opportunities and therefore limited genetic diversity.
