Answer: C. Preying

Explanation:

A non-native species is the species which is introduced to a new ecosystem. This species is introduced intentionally or accidentally to a new ecosystem by human beings or they may enter to the ecosystem by their own.

A non-native species can be invasive which means it can compete with the native species for resources like shelter, food and mates.

According to the given situation, the Gila trouts being the native species has been affected by the non-native Rainbow trout. This may be because of the fact that non-native species can be invasive for the native species. As the species is used as mate by the non-native species and they may become the prey of non-native species. This has resulted in the extinction of the species of Gila trouts.

Protein are digested and transported by fellow protein. Give vivid examples to support the statement
Nonamiya [84]

Answer and Explanation:

The transport and digestion of proteins is done by other proteins called enzymes. An example of this occurs in the biochemical digestion of proteins, where the enzyme pepsin promotes digestion, the breakdown of proteins into smaller pieces, through hydrolysis which is the breakdown of molecules with the use of water. These pieces of the protein are transported to the duodenum where they are digested again by the enzyme enterokinase.

Yakvenalex [24]

Natural selection is the process in which some organisms that show better adaptation to the environment are more likely to produce an offspring. In the case of the exercise, the answer is:

b. Some tuna live in the Pacific Ocean. They are fast, so they are likely to survive and pass on their genes.

It means that as they are better adapted to that environment due to the fact they are fast swimmers, they are likely not only to survive, but to pass their genes and produce offsprings.
