The population of frogs would exhibit competition due to the limited resources in the lake. Competition can be defined as the interaction among the species of organisms when resources are limited in an ecosystem. The type of competition observed in the above example of the lake with limited resources is called intraspecific competition as it is between the members of the same species competiting for the same resources. The species that do not compete will eventually die or get eliminated. This results in the change of population of frogs over time. Thus, competition is one among the forces that is responsible for natural selection.
Biotic factors that a population needs include food availability. Abiotic factors may include space, water, and climate. The carrying capacity of an environment is reached when the number of births equal the number of deaths. A limiting factor determines the carrying capacity for a species.
Answer:
4. a
5. a
6. a
7. a
8. a
9. a
10. True
Explanation:
4. Units of inheritance in living organisms are known as genes. These genes exist in pairs in all organisms and a copy of each gene is passed down to the offspring during reproduction.
Correct option: a
5. Assuming the dominance of allele A over allele a:
AA x aa
Aa Aa Aa Aa
All the offspring will appear tall since the effects of allele a is masked by allele A.
Correct option: a
6. From the cross in (5) above, the genotypic ratio of the offspring is 100% Aa.
Correct option: a
7. Alternate forms of genes in living organisms are known as alleles. A copy of the alleles is usually passed down to the offspring during the process of reproduction.
Correct option: a
8. Phenotypes are the physical appearance of organisms. They are physical interpretation of genes.
Correct option: a
9. The law of segregation was postulated by Gregor Mendel. It states that gene pairs segregate during the process of meiosis and then randomly unite during the process of fertilization.
Correct option: a
10 Heterozygous organisms have two different alleles for the same genes. For genes that obey Mendelian laws, heterozygous condition is characterized by one dominant and one recessive alleles.
If you meant "distributed" and not "disturbed" it is distributed through the water/ hydrologic cycle.
1) Answer:F<span>iltration occurs in the renal corpuscle.
</span>
Blood that is going to be filtered enters the first part of the nephron, the glomerulus, which is a tuft
of capillary vessels. The glomerulus is inside a "sac" called a glomerular capsule.Together, the glomerulus and the glomerular capsule form the renal corpuscle, which is the filtering unit.
2)Answer: <span>the excess substance is not reabsorbed and will be excreted in the urine.
</span> The kidneys are able to control the amount of that substance that is needed. So, the needed amount will be reabsorbed and the rest that is in excess, will be wasted to form urine.
