California condors, large, predatory birds that were previously on the edge of extinction, have benefited from a program that ra

ises birds in captivity and then releases them into the wild. The reintroduction program, however, is having variable success. If it were determined that condor reproduction along the coast is being harmed by DDT in the condors' foods, which action would be most useful to improve the situation?

Answer:

To create policies to <em>control or forbid</em> the use of DDT

To create educational programs for the people.

Explanation:

As the individual can not be controlled once it is released, the actions to take abut this problem must be focused on other perspectives. Two main actions would be usefull to improve the condors´ situation:

One of them is to create policies to control or forbid the use of DDT, to reduce contamination in different food and water sources. There are too many animals that get contaminated for feeding on vegetables or other animals grown on perturbed soil, and for drinking polluted water. When these animals die, condor feeds on them and also dies. It is important to avoid using these products that affect the whole biodiversity, including human beings.

The other action is to educate people. It is very important to create educational programs that are accessible to everybody and by which it is possible to teach people about the condors´ biology, feeding behavior, and reproductive rate, among others. People should know that these animals are not dangerous, that they only feed on dead animals, and that their reproduction rate is very low. If people do not have any knowledge about this species and its situation, they will not be able to protect it.

In C3 plants the conservation of water promotes _____.
bija089 [108]

Answer:

The correct answer is d. photorespiration

Explanation:

In the C3 plant, the Rubisco enzyme is important that fix CO2 into organic molecule by binding with CO2. Rubisco can also bind to oxygen when the oxygen concentration increases in cells which leads to the loss of fixed CO2  and waste of energy which is called photorespiration.

So when stomata are open CO2 comes in and O2 goes out of the cell which maintains the high CO2 concentration in the cell but during hot days C3 plants close stomata to prevent water loss.  

So closing of stomata decrease the intake of CO2 and increase the oxygen concentration inside the cell. So in increased temperature and high oxygen concentration, the rubisco enzymes bind to O2 and promote photorespiration.
