Answer:

sample:

Explanation:

The population of unionid mussels in the Hudson River decreased after zebra mussels were introduced. Zebra mussels, a nonnative species, competed with the unionid mussels for food. The zebra mussels were able to outcompete the unionid mussels, allowing the zebra mussel population to increase dramatically over six years. The unionid mussel population decreased due to a lack of food.

<span>They come apart or lose their shape. </span>

A biological catalyst that speed up the rate of chemical reaction in the body is known as Enzymes. Many processes in the body depend majorly on enzymes and they usually function by forming enzyme- substrate complex. However, large temperature and pH will cause the enzymes to denature this is because all enzymes are proteins and these extreme conditions will affect the bonds in their tertiary structure.

How does the function of the glottis help the frog survive?
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

This voice box occurs in all amphibians but is anatomically most complex in frogs. The larynx exits into the trachea; the latter bifurcates into the bronchi and then into the lungs. The glottis then opens, and elastic recoil of the lungs forces the pulmonary air out and over the new air in the buccopharyngeal pocket.
