To measure the population of lake trout in a 250-hectare lake, 400 individual trout were netted and marked with a fin clip, then

returned to the lake. The next week, the lake was netted again, and out of the 200 lake trout that were caught, 50 had fin clips. Using the mark-recapture estimate, the lake trout population size could be closest to which of the following?4002001,60080,000

Answer:

Estimated size is 1600

Explanation:

Given data:

Size of lake is 250 hectares

Total number of trout who netted is 400

Total number of trout in next week is 200

Total number of trout having fin clip 50

estimation population size is estimated by mark rupture as follow

Estimated population size = \frac{(marked\ initally \times total\ recaptured)}{mark\ recaptured}

Estimated size= \frac{400\times 200)}{50}

Estimated size is 1600

1) Explain why increasing the amounts of the two enzymes changed the life spans of the mice.
ANEK [815]

1. Arf and P53 were being injected by a technique which is engineered genetically and it is for this reason which made the mice to continue living longer.

2. People should not be engineered so as to have higher levels of two enzymes not unless the engineered is used to treat cancer.

No early death should be allowed to occur in children not unless it is God's will, therefore genetic engineering is much allowed in children.

It is good to stop cancer but it is not good to do genetic engineering to stop aging because if people they don't die there will be an increased population. In Order to reduce population if people get aged they die.

Predict what would happen to typical animal cells placed in 0.0M and 1.0M sucrose solutions, and explain your prediction. The an
Softa [21]

Answer:

The animal cell will take in water until it eventually swells or burst

Explanation:

Osmosis is an important phenomenon that drives the movement of water across membranes. It is defined as the movement of water molecules from a region of high water concentration/low solute concentration to a region of low water concentration/high solute concentration across a semi-permeable membrane.

In this case, the animal cell with a molar concentration of 2.0M is placed in 0.0M and 1.0M sucrose solutions. This means that the cell is placed in an hypotonic solution (solution with low solute concentration), hence, water will move from the extracellular solution into the animal cell since the solute concentration in the cell is more. The animal cell will begin to swell and eventually burst.

Goshia [24]
Sean, who weighs the least of the three, will have the highest blood alcohol concentration (BAC).

The less a person weighs, the more they will be affected by a given amount of alcohol. People of the same weight, even the same gender, individuals with a lower percentage of body fat will have lower blood alcohol concentration than those with a higher percentage of body fat.

Hope this helps! :)

alexdok [17]

Answer:

disruptive selection

Explanation:

Disruptive selection may be defined as a type of a natural selection which selects against some average individual in a given population. These makeup of such a type of the population shows the phenotypes of both the extremes of characteristics but they have very few individuals in the middle.

Disruptive selection is also known as diversifying selection.

In the given context, the beaks of an African seedcracker finches may be small or may be large but they are not of the intermediate size. Such a selection is known as disruptive selection in species.
