All three would decrease the size of the population of the organism. If an organism suddenly has a new predator, the organism's population will decline and it is likely that the members of the prey's population would disperse in an attempt to survive. Disease would just kill off the population in general, maybe the organism's population would distribute itself differently in order to avoid catching the disease. Competition would decrease the amount of food, water, and/or land available to the organism's population causing it to decrease or change habitats in an attempt to find another food source

In which direction is heat being transferred?

stepan [7]

Answer:

And unless people interfere, thermal energy — or heat — naturally flows in one direction only: from hot toward cold. Heat moves naturally by any of three means. The processes are known as conduction, convection and radiation. Sometimes more than one may occur at the same time.

How does an echinoderm use its tube feet

My name is Ann [436]

An echinoderm uses its tube feet for attachment and feeding.

Explanation:

Tube feets are usually considered as locomotory organ of Echinoderm.
They have tube feets arranged around their oral groove.
These tube feed help the organism to push the food into the oral groove.
Tube feets also help the echinoderms to attach themselves to the floor of the ocean and locomote slowly in a sliding manner.

Which of these is one of the two processes that make up ventilation?

Svetach [21]

Pulmonary ventilation comprises two major steps: inspiration and expiration. Inspiration is the process that causes air to enter the lungs, and expiration is the process that causes air to leave the lungs. A respiratory cycle is one sequence of inspiration and expiration

Cellular respiration may occur by either aerobic or anaerobic means. Identify the type of respiration that matches each item. On

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

The respiration, which takes place in the existence of oxygen is termed as aerobic respiration. In the process, glucose goes through the process of glycolysis to generate two molecules of pyruvate that further gets transformed into acetyl-CoA and enters the citric acid cycle. The energy generated from both the citric acid cycle and glycolysis is mediated by the energy carriers like FADH2, NADH2, etc to the ETC to produce ATP. The net production of ATPs while undergoing aerobic respiration is 36-38 ATPs.

On the other hand, the respiration, which takes place in the non-existence of oxygen is termed as anaerobic respiration, also known as fermentation. The process takes place within the cells of yeasts, in the process also the formation of pyruvate takes place as the cell goes through the process of glycolysis. This pyruvate is further converted to acetaldehyde, which further gets converted to alcohol or ethanol. In the process, the net production of ATP is 2, and in animals, the same procedure is termed as lactic acid fermentation.

Thus, glycolysis takes place both in aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

The net gain of 36 or 38 ATPs takes place in aerobic respiration.

The net gain of 2 ATPs takes place in anaerobic respiration.

Lactic acid fermentation is a kind of anaerobic respiration.

The alcohol fermentation is a kind of anaerobic respiration.

The electron transport chain is used in the aerobic form of respiration.

The citric acid cycle is also used in aerobic respiration.
