Major environmental policies came about as a result of environmental disasters that drew the attention of the media. Events like the oil spill in California and the fires along the Cuyahoga River drew the attention of the media and helped raise public awareness of environmental issues. Increased public awareness led to the federal government enacting policies to monitor water conditions and assess the environmental impact of business and industry.

What is the difference between DNA pol 3 core and holoenzyme?
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Essentially there is not an answer. There are two different definitions.

A holoenzyme is an enzyme that needs to be together with a cofactor(s), required for activity.

In some cases, enzymes constituted by several subunits (like DNA polymerase 3) are call holoenzyme as well, because it will only perform correctly when all its subunits are present.

Drag the labels from the left to the correct locations in the table to contrast r- and K-selection.
Mandarinka [93]
I don’t see any labels, but remember that humans are a great example of a k-selected species. High rates of parental care leads to high survivorship of offspring, and thus negates the need to have large amounts of offspring.

R-selected species are quite the opposite. They produce large amounts of offspring at many intervals in an attempt to maximize survivorship, as they don’t have strong parental involvement with their young. Think of insects.
