An isolated African canyon community in which cheetahs and leopards consume only impala antelopes is being observed. In a hypoth

etical scenario, the number of leopards increases in the canyon. Formulate a logical conclusion about the change that is MOST LIKELY to be the first to occur after the leopard population increases

Answer:

<em>The population of the impala antelopes will decline rapidly.</em>

Explanation:

The cheetahs and leopards are the predators of the impala antelopes. If the population of the predators arises, this means there will be more predators feeding on the prey. As a result, the population of the prey will decline. Hence, in the above scenario, the population of the impala antelopes will decline rapidly as it will have more number of predators. The population of the cheetahs might also start to decline if it does not move on to another source of food.

The presence of nitrogen-fixing plants should benefit nearby individuals of other species, because nitrogen is a key nutrient--i
saul85 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Nitrogen will only become available to other, nearby plants when the nodules or the nitrogen-fixing plant itself dies".

Explanation:

Nitrogen fixing bacteria maintain a symbiotic relationship with plants. Bacteria performs nitrogen fixation providing the plant with ammonia, while bacteria has a safe place and nutrients to prosper. This relationship is very intimate because it occurs at the root hair of the plant at structures called nodules. Therefore, nitrogen will only become available to other, nearby plants when the nodules or the nitrogen-fixing plant itself dies

why might changes to the gulf coast prairies and marshes ecoregion happen more quickly then to other ecoregion?
liq [111]
The reason for this is because it is closer to water, therefor they have more events that could happen. Also there is a lot of weathering, erosion, and deposition which makes the gulf coast prairies and marshes more susceptible to changes. 

I hope this helps!

Gene expression—translation how do cells synthesize polypeptides and convert them to functional proteins?
slavikrds [6]
The language of DNA in form of nitrogen bases read in a set of three termed as codons and it is being translated as language of proteins.

First mRNA is read according to the genetic code which can relate the amino acid sequence to proteins. mRNA can be use as the template to assemble in order the chain of amino acid. Translation starts when the mRNA is decoded and the sequence is elongated  until creating an amino acid sequence. Once the stop codon is reached, translation will be stopped and ribosome will release the polypeptide.
