tes have been hunted and killed by people, decreasing the overall coyote population. How will this most likely affect the rattlesnake population over time?

Answer:

Answer:  It will increase because coyotes are the competition.

Explanation:

An ecological niche can be defined as the functional role which an organism performs in the ecosystem in order to sustain it's life. The functional roles include how an organism obtains it's food, type of food eaten by the organism, type of habitat chosen by the organism and type of breeding season used by the organism.

In the given situation, both coyotes and rattlesnakes are dependent upon the same ecological niche that is they are dependent upon mouse as a primary part of their diets. As, both coyotes and rattlesnakes are dependent upon the same diet there may exist the competition between the two species. But it is mentioned that the coyote population is decreasing therefore the population of rattlesnake will most likely increase as the competition for the same diet decreased.

A healthy way to gain weight would be to simply add more calories to your diet. Group of answer choices
marissa [1.9K]

<u>Answer</u>:

A healthy way to gain weight would be to simply add more calories to your diet is a <u>TRUE</u> statement.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The number of "calories" that an individual consumes and burns daily plays an important role in determining his/her weight. A person who consumes more calories than he burns daily could become overweight whereas if a person is consuming fewer calories than what he burns could cause him to lose weight.

The best way to gain weight is to "add more calories" to one's diet while also keeping in mind the number of calories being burnt daily. The newly added calories should sum up greater than the total calories burnt regularly.

Hence, the statement about adding calories in the diet to gain weight is true.

What type of diffusion is aided with a transport protein?
babymother [125]

Facilitated diffusion is the diffusion of solutes through transport proteins in the plasma membrane. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport. Even though facilitated diffusion involves transport proteins, it is still passive transport because the solute is moving down the concentration gradient.

How might targeting rapidly growing cells explain common chemotherapy side effects such as hair loss and nausea
IrinaVladis [17]

Cancer cells are the cells that divide rapidly than any other cells in the body. The drugs used in chemotherapy work on rapidly dividing cancer cells. Some cells of our body apart from cancer cells also divide rapidly along with the cancer cells such as the cells that line the stomach and the digestive tract. Chemotherapy drugs cannot differentiate the cancer cells and the normal cells so these drugs also attack the normal cells which divide rapidly along with the cancer cells. The drugs also attack the cells that are present in the roots of the hair. So, this results in the hair loss. Hair loss does not occur immediately after the chemotherapy treatment instead it starts after few treatments. The degree of the hair loss after chemotherapy depends on the drug type and process. So when the chemotherapy drugs are used it results in the hair loss and nausea.

Therefore, when chemotherapy drugs attack normal cells including the roots of the hair instead of cancer cells that divide rapidly along with the cancer cells it results in the hair loss and nausea.
