Answer:

Decimal reduction time = 990 cells per minute

Explanation:

Given -

Initial population of cells =10000

Final population of cells  =100

Total change in population of cells is equal to final population of cells minus the initial population of cells.

Total change in population of cells = 10000-100\\= 9900\\

Total time taken by cell to reduce = 10 minutes

Decimal reduction  time

= \frac{9900}{10} \\= 990 cells per minute

predict what biodiversity changes that would be expected to occur in response to changing environmental factors
GaryK [48]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Environmental changes bring changes in the biodiversity too. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>Global temperature </em>change caused by various factors is an example of environmental change. When the temperature changes the <em>flowering pattern of plants and trees</em> are found to change. Many trees bloom at seasons different from their <em>actual blooming season.</em>  

When temperature of aquatic environment changes it poses threat to already existing aquatic life. <em>Cold water organisms</em> die off when they become unable to adapt to the temperature change.

The<em> aquatic environment </em>will then be dominated by warm water aquatic organisms.  Changes in salinity, precipitation, soil nutrient content etc causes various changes in the <em>flora and fauna of a region. </em>

Certain villages in India are very conservative and women are required to wear clothes that completely cover their entire body.
Sauron [17]

Answer:

1. In Indian villages, as the body of women is covered completely with clothes due to the tradition and custom they are abiding to follow, the skin does not come in contact with the sunlight, which further results in the low or no production of vitamin D within the body.  

Due to the deficiency of vitamin D, inadequate absorption of calcium occurs from the gastrointestinal tract and kidneys. This eventually leads to impairment in the process of bone mineralization resulting in issues like a fracture, pain in the bone, weakness in muscles and other issues. Vitamin D is also an essential part of the production of certain neurotransmitters and forms an essential component for brain nutrition, thus, its deficiency also results in conditions like depression.  

2. The dresses used by women of Indian villages cover the skin completely, due to which sunlight fails to reach the skin. This results in the lack of vitamin D formation, as for vitamin D sunlight is essential for converting cholesterol present in the skin to 7-dehydrocholesterol also known as pro-vitamin D. This pro-vitamin D is a precursor of vitamin D. Due to no or lack of vitamin D formation, deficiency of calcium takes place within the bones that eventually results in pain and weakness.
