kotykmax [81]

It is true that once glucose, galactose, and fructose enter the absorptive cells, they are transported to the portal vein and then to the liver.

Absorptive cells are also known as enterocytes. These cells line the lumen of the small intestine and the colon. They are meant to absorb the nutrients from the digested food inside the lumen of intestine. Apart from absorption, they also transport the nutrients across the membrane.

Portal vein is the blood vessel that transports blood from the GI tract, pancreas, gall bladder and spleen into the liver. This blood vessels belongs to the portal venous system. Its location is the upper right quadrant of the abdomen.

How did Mendel make the F1 generation for his experiments?

Advocard [28]

<h3>Answer;</h3>

He crossed two pure breeds

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

F1 or the first filial generation is the first generation of offspring produced by crossing a set of parents to help show what genes will be inherited from crossing pea plants. Therefore, the F1 generation consist of or offspring from the parents.
Mendel performed a true breeding cross, meaning he crossed one homozygous recessive for a trait and one homozygous dominant for the trait. This gave rise to the heterozygous dominant offspring.

Macronutrients are a substance required in relatively large amounts by living organisms, in particular.
a type of food (e.g., fat, protein, carbohydrate) required in large amounts in the human diet.
a chemical element (e.g., potassium, magnesium, calcium) required in large amounts for plant growth and development.

a chemical element or substance required in trace amounts for the normal growth and development of living organisms.

Using context clues, what does “ferrying its newly-gained energy with it “ mean when talking about convection?

finlep [7]

The term "ferrying its newly-gained energy with it" means that the fluid carries the energy it acquired as it rises during convection.

Convection is a mode of heat transfer in which energy is transferred by the bulk movement of particles from one point to another. During convection, a fluid is heated and its particles acquire energy, These energetic particles now move upwards and are replaced by less dense fluid at a lower energy.

The term ferrying its newly-gained energy with it, implies that the heated particles carry the energy they have gained with them as they rise during convection.

To my esteemed Biology colleagues: 10/15/19 I am National Park Ranger, Imani. I am writing you as my park is in desperate need o

Zanzabum

Answer:

See explanation below.

Explanation:

1. Explain the difference in the roles of producers, consumers, and decomposers in the Everglades.

In the Everglades, producers would be all species of organisms that are autotrophs such as different species of plants. Consumers are categorized into three: primary, secondary and terciary consumers. Primary consumers feed on plants (e.g. insects), secondary consumers eat the primary consumers (e.g. mice or rats), while tertiary consumers are higher predators that eat the secondary consumers (e.g. racoons). Finally, decomposers are bacteria, archaeans, fungi, or worms that live in soil which decompose organic matter.

2. Based on your knowledge of how to classify living organisms, in what domain and kingdom do the producers, consumers, and decomposers belong?

In Biology, the three domains are Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya; while there are six kingdoms: Archaebacteria, Eubacteria (true bacteria), Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia.

Producers, that is plants, belong to the Domain Eukarya and the Kingdom Plantae.
Primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers also belong to the Domain Eukarya and to the Kingdom Animalia as they are all animals and eukaryotes.
Decomposers are classified into the three domains: Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya. Bacteria belong to the domain Bacteria, archaeans belong to the domain Archaea, and worms and fungi belong to the domain Eukarya. On the other hand, decomposers are classified into Archaebacteria, Eubacteria, Protista (oomycetes), Fungi, and Animalia (worms).

3. How did energy travel in the Everglades BEFORE the alligators were removed?

Aquatic plants (producers) <-- bass <-- bluegill <-- gar <-- alligator

Aquatic plants (producers) <-- zooplankton <-- bass/bluegill <-- wood stork <-- alligator

Plants (producers) <-- cattle <-- alligator

Plants (producers) <-- insects <-- rats <-- racoons <-- alligator

4. How did removing the alligators from the food web change how energy flowed in the Everglades?

Once the alligators were removed from the food web, the populations that were once in decline began to recover because of the lack of predators. Consequently, the lack of alligators led to the uncontrollable growth of racoons, wood stork, and gar, which could also cause an alteration as they consume ecologically and economically important fish species such as the bass and bluegill.

5. How did the problem begin, and what action(s) should Ranger Imani take to solve this issue?

The problem began when the populations of alligator, an apex predator that sits at the top of the food chain, grew at an accelerated pace. This led to the uncontrolled predation of other organisms that are also fundamental to maintain an ecological balance. Therefore, Ranger Imani decided to humanely euthanize the alligators, which were preying upon them. This led to a huge increase in wood stork, gar, and racoon populations.

Alligators should not be completely removed because they help to maintain an ecological balance. Instead, Ranger Imani should work on controlling populations by implementing Wildlife Population Management strategies, such as sustainable fishing, to prevent a certain species population from reaching a high number of individuals in order to keep a healthy ecosystem where all populations are stable because removing all apex predators is not the appropriate strategy as it significantly alters the ecosystem.
