Which of the following results from a mark-recapture study done on mice would reflect a larger population size? When taking the

second sample, 200 individuals are caught and 80 are marked from the first sample.Both of these scenarios would result in the same population estimate.When taking the second sample, 200 individuals are caught and 20 are marked from the first sample.

Answer:

Option (3).

Explanation:

Mark recapture method is used for the estimation of population size of an area. The individuals are identified by  some mark on them. The formula of mark recapture method is

N = M * C/ R

Here, N is the number of the individuals, M is the individuals are marked and captured, C is the individual captured again with mark or non mark and R is recaptured marked individual.

The individual with 200 population, 20 are marked for the first time represent the large population size.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

How is the process of carbon fixation in CAM plants different from the process in C3 and C4 plants? a. CAM plants require a larg
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The correct answer would be option C.

Plants evolved different methods to prevent or reduce the effects of photorespiration.

The C3 plants are the most common plants which do not have any special methods or physiology to prevent photorespiration.

The C4 are the plants in which carbon fixation and the Calvin cycle takes place in different cells. Carbon is fixed in the mesophyll cells with the help of PEP carboxylase enzyme. It fixes carbon and converts PEP into oxaloacetate. The Calvin cycle takes place in the bundle-sheath cells.

In contrast, CAM (Crassulacean acid metabolism) plants are those in which carbon fixation and Calvin cycle are separated into time. The carbon is fixed during the night as it helps in reducing the loss of water through transpiration.

The Calvin cycle takes place during the day time in the same cell, that is, mesophyll cell.
