If the organism has no natural predators then that organism can start to overpopulate the habitat and use up valuable resources that other organisms, who DO have natural predators, need to survive and repopulate.

Explain the differences between normal air circulation and how the air behaves when a temperature inversion occurs.
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Temperature inversion or thermal inversion is a phenomenon during which the temperature increase when there is an increase in the altitude. It is an uncommon process that happens in the troposphere-the layer of atmosphere closest to the earth.    

When there is an increase in temperature with altitude, that warm air acts as a blockage for the cool air near the surface of the earth. So this is just opposite to the normal behavior of the air, where it becomes cooler with an increase in altitude.

So how air circulation behaves during inversion?

So as we said that the cool air nearer to the earth will be blocked by a layer of warm air. This blockage will hinder the circulation of air upwards from the lower layers. Let’s see how:

• As we know that, warm air is less dense and more buyout than cool air and normally less dense warm air is close to the earth and cool air is in above layers. But when the process is reversed, this warm air acts like a blanket for the proper circulation of air. Due to this, many environmental pollutants which normally leave the earth during air circulation get trapped in our air.  

• The trapped environmental pollutants like nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons get convert into harmful ozone that ultimately deteriorates the quality of air and causes problems like smog.

• The improper air circulation also causes suspension of the harmful gases near the earth instead of allowing them to leave the earth atmosphere. This ultimately causes air pollution.  

• When smoke will not rise, carbon dioxide will be build up in the atmosphere; this will cause greenhouse effect and global warming.

Therefore, air circulation behaves very different during temperature inversion process and poses hazardous effects on global climate.

Hope it helps! :)

The Osmosis Gizmo portrays a cell (red square) in a solution of purple solute particles dissolved in green solvent particles. Pr
baherus [9]

Answer: The particles that can pass through the cell membrane are the GREEN SOLVENT PARTICLES.

Explanation:

OSMOSIS can be defined as the thermal movement of solvent (water molecules) through a selectively permeable or semi-permeable membrane from a region of high concentration of the solvent to one where they are in low concentration.

The cell is bound by a membrane called plasma membrane. This membrane is selectively permeable and allows water and certain dissolved solvents to pass through it. As a result, the plasma membrane of the cell regulates the movement of materials between the cell and it's environment.

From the osmosis gizmo, it portrays a typical example of osmotic reaction occuring between a cell immersed in a solution of purple solute particles dissolved in green solvent particles. In order to maintain an osmotic balance between the cell and the solution surrounding it, the solvent (which is the green solvent particles) will move from the region of higher concentration to a lower region through the cell membrane

Rudik [331]

Answer:

Option c. anterior-posterior axis is the right answer.

Explanation:

Bicoid is a maternal effect gene whose protein concentration gradient patterns the anterior-posterior (A-P) axis during Drosophila embryogenesis. it was the first protein demonstrated to act as a morphogen.  See image having more explanation.
