Coral reefs have a symbiotic relationship with algae. Because of human activity, the ocean is absorbing high levels of carbon dioxide, which causes an increase in ocean temperature. <span>Due to these unfavorable conditions, corals expel algae, leading to bleaching. If corals go too long without algae, the corals will die. </span>

Consider the model for natural selection. Describe a scenario that represents this model of natural selection.
Travka [436]

Answer:

The correct answer would be D) In a population of herbivores, a change in the habitat provides leaves that are high up in the trees. The herbivores with longer necks can reach the leaves. They survive and reproduce. The herbivores, over time, have longer necks.

Natural selection is a gradual process which favors the survival and reproduction of organisms which have better adapted to the environment.

Adaptations or traits which favor the survival of the organisms in environment keep on passing from one generation to the next and with time theses traits get inherited in the population.

For example, in the above situation herbivores with short necks die as they could not reach the leaves that were high up in the trees. In contrast, long neck favors the survival of the organisms due to which only organisms with long necks survive and reproduce. With time, only organisms were left that had long necks.

Match the words below to the appropriate blanks in the following sentences.
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

1. Malonyl CoA

2. Inhibits

3.fatty acil CoA

4. Carboxylase

5. Insulin

6. Synthesis

7. Glucagon

8. Oxidation

Explanation:

the oxidation of the mitochondria is blocked by the entry of fatty acid units, a reaction produced by stopping the carnitine acetyl transferase mediated by Malonyl CoA

A key intermediate in fatty acid synthesis ——-Malonyl CoA—-inhibits —-carnitine acyltransferase I, thereby blocking the entry of fatty acyl units into the mitochondrion for oxidation.

The substrates for fatty acid oxidation, ——Fatty acyl CoAs ——-, inhibit fatty acid synthesis by interfering with the polymerization of acetyl-CoA ——carboxylase ——.

Hormonal effects on adipocytes are opposed:——- Insulin ——-promotes fatty acid ———-synthesis ——-by several mechanisms;——Glucagon ——promotes fat breakdown and fatty acid ——Oxidation ——
