small group of mice were released on an island. The island previously had no mice on it, but had abundant food and no predators.

After several years of growth, the size of the new island population stabilizes. However, at this point a hurricane drastically reduces the population. How would you describe the situation?

Answer:

Density-independent regulation

Explanation:

It is given that before the arrival of hurricane, the population of mice has stabilized.  

This means the rate of birth and deaths are approximately equal.  

But as the hurricane came, it disrupted this balance and would have led to a change in both the birth and death rates. This is termed as Density-independent regulation as abiotic factors and environmental factors have affected the birth and death rates

These are nucleotides that have a single ring structure. Example: Cytosine, Thymine, and Uracil
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The question is incomplete.

However, I notice that your question is mainly dealing with

"Nucleotides with a single ring structure"

I tackled that part, also providing explanation to the point you focused on.

Explanation:

Nucleotides are compounds in which nitrogenous bases (purines and pyrimidines) are conjugated to the pentose sugars (ribose or deoxyribose) and at least one phosphate group. Thus a nucleotide consists of a nitrogenous base, pentose sugar and at least one phosphate group.

Examples of the nitrogenous bases are Adenine, Guanine, Thymine, Uracil and Cytosine. Of all, Thymine, Uracil and Cytosine are with single ring, while Adenine and Guanine are double ring structure.

Art [367]

Answer:

Stop habitat destruction

Explanation:

Cutting down and burning forests basically take away the shelter, hunting grounds, and overall habitat away from many species that use the trees as a form of shelter and protection. Removing their shelter, which could be their only form of protection causes many of these organisms to die, not to mention the plants that are necessary to keep the food chain balanced.
