Why is it important to study grouse habitat selection and demography relative to human land use practices?

1 answer:

6 0

Grouse species have evolved living in environments with little vertical structure and in areas with minimum human activity (from roads and cultivation to other more complex infrastructure). In the recent decades, there has been a significant increase in wind energy development in diverse areas and ecosystems. This development involves construction and placement of tall man-made structures, such as wind turbines and other infrastructure in habitats with high wind capacity. These habitats are often occupied by grouse species. This coexistence could severely endanger the species survivorship and reproductive ability. It is very important to study grouse habitat selection and demography, so that appropriate regulatory guidelines can be applied to wind energy development.

Answer:

Please find what occurs in the single nucleotide-pair substitution below

Explanation:

Single nucleotide-pair substitution is a type of point mutation as stated in this question. Point mutation is when one nucleotide base (single) is affected in the sequence. In this single nucleotide-pair substitution, ONE nucleotide base is substituted by another base.

For example, in a DNA sequence that reads: TAA GTC GGG, a mutated sequence affected by single nucleotide-pair substitution will read as follows: TAA GTC TGG. Note that in the last codon (GGG), a single nucleotide G has been replaced by another nucleotide T. Therefore, single nucleotide-pair substitution is said to have occur.

All but one of the girl's traits are determined by her chromosomes. that is

dolphi86 [110]

Out of the following given choices;

A) her sex.

B) how tall she is.

C) how long her hair is.

D) the color of her eyes.

The answer is C. The length of hair is not determined by genetics but rather by the time period of the growth phase (anagen phase) of the hair follicle, before shedding in the telogen phase. The longer the anagen phase the longer the hair will be before shedding. The hair on the head has longer anagen phase compared to hair in regions such as the eyebrows.

Are amplitude and wavelength related

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Below! ;)

Explanation:

The amplitude of a wave is the height of a wave as measured from the highest point on the wave (peak or crest) to the lowest point on the wave (trough). Wavelength refers to the length of a wave from one peak to the next. Wavelength is directly related to the frequency of a given wave form.

Hope this helps!

PLEASE HELP! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST. What 2 factors affect organisms and their habitats, and give examples of each

Grace [21]

Answer:

There are two categories of these factors: abiotic and biotic. Abiotic factors are the non-living parts of the environment that can often have a major influence on living organisms. Abiotic factors include water, sunlight, oxygen, soil and temperature.

Explanation:

Biotic factors are interactions associated with living organisms. They can also influence the distribution of organisms in an ecosystem. grazing - too little leads to dominant plants outcompeting other species, too much reduces species numbers overall. Both decrease biodiversity.

Abiotic factors affect the ability of organisms to survive and reproduce. Abiotic limiting factors restrict the growth of populations. They help determine the types and numbers of organisms able to exist within an environment.
