The answer is C) Cloning eliminates the ability to sexually reproduce and provide genetic variability.
In the future, there is no variability in the genes in the clones given that they are the exact copies of the "parent" produce. All should be identical without differences and variations. Although Farmer Brown doesn't want this to happen that's is what he is reluctant to listen to Farmer Green's advice.

If perfect growing conditions allowed a population of producers to grow and increase in density, which of the following changes
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

The population of herbivores wouldn't decrease because their food source is being increased. Predators wouldn't leave because more herbivores come to eat the increased number of producers, thus more than likely increasing the number of predators.

What do metabolism, respiration, and digestion have in common?
Montano1993 [528]
Metabolism, respiration and digestion are all complex chemical processes involving many steps, happening in 3 dimensional space within cells. Metabolism is the breaking of bonds within food molecules (like sugar) to harness energy for cellular work; respiration involves moving oxygen and carbon dioxide gases between cells to facilitate cellular metabolism and digestion involves breaking down food macro structures into smaller units suitable for metabolism.

So the answer is D - each of the three process involve multiple chemical reactions.
