Salt accumulation in the runoff when the snow melts can cause loss of water from the roots of plants leading to the death of the plants. Sufficient amounts of salt could cause fresh water organisms harm in the same manner.

HI~ I hope this helps

(these answers were hand-written meaning I did not copy and paste so, feel free to use the answers freely)

1.

When ecosystems change rapidly the fundamental environmental cycles such as the circulation of water, carbon and nutrients can change as ecosystems depend on them. The usage of factors such as freshwater, carbon dioxide emissions and fertilizer provides a large benefit to humas therefore meaning, that large and rapid changes to an ecosystem could also effect the things we as humans rely on.

2.  

Complex organic matter is broken down by decomposers into carbon dioxide, water etc. The ecosystem is affected based upon the fact that the decomposition of organic matter that is produced by plants, animals and soil organisms is an important process which affects the different important ecosystem processes like nutrient cycling and carbon sequestration.

3. (could have two answers- I recommend the second)

Adaptation- due to the mutation process which results in changes in the structure and function of organisms, these ecosystems would be different as well as unique. The organisms which possesses the traits needed to adapt could then survive as its unique characteristics due to mutation would provide a strong ability

Rise in temperature- If the temperature located on earth was to rise, organisms would have a higher living rate as bacterial life flourishes in warmer temperatures and dies out in colder ones.

4.

~The rapid change of increased food production provides better life sustainability to those living in the ecosystem.

~The rapid change in a large increasing number of organisms could be helpful as they often live of off one another.

5.

~Rapid growth of things such as phytoplankton which cause dead zones are harmful to the ecosystem. Dead zones create zones where too much oxygen is consumed resulting in areas where plants and sea life can no longer survive.

~Whereas the rapid increase of organisms could also be harmful to an ecosystem as the possibility of the organism outnumbering the food sources could become prominent.

What is a major difference between the structure of a cell wall and a cell membrane
poizon [28]

The cell wall is the outside layer and the cell membrane is the inner layer. Cell walls are made  of cellulose and lignin, while cell membranes contain phospholipids. Cell walls are made of cellulose and cell membranes are made of proteins. The cell wall is the rigid structure the surrounds the cell and the cell membrane is flexible and skin like and surrounds the cytoplasm.

Domestic cats have 38 chromosomes in their diploid cells. If a diploid cat cell enters meiosis, how many chromosomes and double-
sdas [7]

Answer:

Meiosis is a reduction division of diploid cells.(2n) Chromosomes numbers are reduced with each successive division stages  of meiosis 1 and 2, to haploid(n).

Cats  have  38 diploid  somatic (body)chromosome (2n) in the somatic cells  and are reduced to 19  new   varied haploid cells (n) of chromosomes in the gametes.

In cats, as in other mammals, during spermatogenesis in (seminiferous tublule of testis) and oegensis(in the ovaries);<u>meiotic  reduction division</u> reduced the diploid  somatic chromosomes to haploid chromosomes  in  sex gametes.

Therefore 38 chromosomes will be in  the somatic chromosomes, while the sex gametes, with double-helical molecules of DNA, at the end of meiosis II will  have 19 chromosomes, half of the somatic chromosomes.
