Consider this ecological pyramid found in the Great Lakes ecosystem. Ecological pyramids are diagrams that are used to show how

much energy, the number of organisms, or how much biomass may be found at each trophic level of all the food webs of a community. Note that the autotrophs are always placed at the base of the pyramid. Explain why the saprotrophs and detritivores are placed to one side of the pyramid.

We do quite often have mutt birds. (the correct name for such a mutt is a hybrid. <span>They are way more common than most people think, but unless you are a birdwatcher you probably wouldn’t even spot them. People often see an odd looking birds and simply think it’s a type they haven’t seen before, when in fact it is a hybrid of two well-known species. 

Having said that, for birds to hybridized they have to be fairly closely related to start with. Robins and blue jays are no more closely related than humans are to baboons. You wouldn’t expect a human and a baboon to be able to mate and produce babies would you? So no, robins and blue jays can’t interbreed.

However there are many different species of animal that CAN interbreed and produce offspring. But the different species need to be fairly closely related, far more closely than human and baboon… or a blue jay and a robin.

For example we can interbreed horses and donkeys to produce baby mules, and we can breed cattle and buffalo, or camels and llamas. And the same is true of birds. While blue jays can’t be bred with robins in the wild we quite frequently find mutt birds.

<span> Ducks are particularly noted for forming wild mutts and many if not all north American mallards for example are of mixed species ancestry.</span>

If the sequence ATGCATGTCAATTGA were mutated such that a base were inserted after the first G and the third T were deleted, how
german

Answer:

Two

Explanation:

Consider the sequence ATGACATGCAATTGA.

Originally, there are 5 codons, translating to a minimum of 5 amino acids: ATG CAT GTC AAT TGA.

A base was inserted after the first G and the third T was deleted, the sequence become (assuming A is the inserted base);

ATG <em>ACA TGC</em> AAT TGA

<em>Only the second and the the third codon are changed and hence, their respective amino acid.</em>

In your own words, what is a trophic cascade?
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

A trophic cascade is a side-effect when a trophic level (species) of the ecosystem is reduced or removed. Their ecological species interactions keep entire ecosystems balanced. Hence, suppressing their numbers or changing their behavior due to predation risk, results in an ecological imbalance or a trophic cascade.
