A population of tree frogs lives in a forest. A river runs through the middle of the forest. A particularly snowy winter is foll

owed by an unusually rainy spring. The rain and melting snow cause the river to overflow its banks, flooding half the forest. The pattern of precipitation continues over the next 10 years, keeping the same half of the forest flooded. Discuss the effect the flooding might have on the population of tree frogs that inhabits the flooded areas versus those that inhabit the area of the forest that is not flooded

The flooding of half part of the forest have successful separate the population of frogs in that ecosystem into two different set of frogs. This is an example of allopatric speciation, that is, the population become separated as a result of geographical barrier. This separation will make the two set of frog population to become new species. On the long run, the two species may become unable to relate sexually.

Which of the following is not a fate of glucose circulating in the blood of a healthy individual? a) It can be converted to fat.
grin007 [14]

Answer:

B) It can remain, circulating in the blood indefinitely, this is not a fate of glucose circulating in the blood of a healthy individual.

Explanation:

Glucose is produced by breaking down carbohydrates, principally in the small intestine, when we eat a meal containing carbohydrates.This glucose enters the bloodstream.When glucose is in excess, the body stores it away in the form of glycogen in a process stimulated by insulin. Glycogen is a large highly branched structure, made from lots of glucose molecules linked together.Glycogen is mainly stored in the liver and muscles, therefore, excess glucose is removed from the blood stream and stored.

Insulin signals to the cell to translocate Glut 4 to the cell membrane, so that large amounts of glucose can be taken into the cell, via the Glut 4 transporters and converted into glycogen and used as a fuel for cellular activities. Furthermore with the help of insulin, converted into fatty acids, circulated to other parts of the body and stored as fat in adipose tissue.

What are some activities that cells engage in that require energy? And from where do cells obtain the energy they need to make A
malfutka [58]
Some activities that cell requires energy may include cell division, active transport, protein synthesis etc.
In human, Cells get their energy by the food we eat. The nutrients in the food breaks down into soluble and simple molecules in stomach and small intestine and it is absorbed through the small intestine and assimilated into the cells, becoming part of it, providing the uses for each type of nutrient. And of course, many of them is the energy source.
