Why does the population size of a species rise and fall around the carrying capacity, rather than immediately stop growing and f

latten out once the carrying capacity is reached?
Biology
1 answer:
Alisiya [41]3 years ago
3 0
Answer:


Competition for resources like food and space cause the growth rate to stop increasing, so the population levels off. ... The carrying capacity (K) is the maximum population size that can be supported in a particular area without destroying the habitat. Limiting factors determine the carrying capacity of a population.

Explain how the terms oxidation and reduction apply even when there is only a partial shift of electrons between atoms linked by
aliina [53]

Explanation:

In a covalent bond, there is sharing of the donated electron by two atomic species having very small electronegative differences between them.

Oxidation is the loss of electrons by a specie and it usually lead to an increase in oxidation number.

Reduction is the gain of electrons by a specie. It leads to a lower oxidation number.

Since there is no actual loss of gain of electrons in a covalent body, the electronegativiy is at work.

Electronegativity is the ability of a specie to draw the shared electrons more to itself in a covalent bond.

  • Between two atoms bonded covalently, the more electronegative specie draws the electrons closer.
  • This leaves a partial negative charge on it.
  • The other electron then becomes partially positively charged.
  • We can then say, the more electronegative specie undergoes reduction.
  • The less electronegative one undergoes oxidation.

Explain the analogy that was used to explain DNA Mulations? Idk
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

An example of this analogy might be that the surrounding the central dogma which is compared to making yout mum's recipe for brownies.

First, you ought to call your mum, she stands for the DNA. Then, you pay attention in listening and copying down her instructions. This is can be compared to transcription because during transcription, DNA is copied to mRNA.

Any mistake you do during listening and copying leads to mutation caused by insertion or omission.

What produces proteins by following coded instructions that come from the nucleus of the cell
s2008m [1.1K]
DNA and RNA both produce proteins, but RNA copies itself and moves out of the nucleus while DNA stays inside the nucleus and produces proteins. Also DNA helps more in cell division, while RNA helps in making proteins.

How and where viruses reproduce and the function of RNA and DNA in this process.
bija089 [108]
Viruses reproduce by inserting their genetic code into the genetic code of a cell, from there, an active virus will copy itself over and over until that cell bursts, where the new viruses can repeat the process. Another type of virus inserts itself into the genetic code, but does not actively reproduce. It sits and waits for the cell to reproduce for it, by splitting in the way cells do.
