Biology
1 answer:
elixir [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Biodiversity boosts ecosystem productivity where each species, no matter how small, has an important role to play. For example, A larger number of plant species means a greater variety of crops. Greater species diversity ensures natural sustainability for all forms of life.

Question 4....??? What effect can bottleneck events have on population that have nearly become extinct????
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

The answer is; D

It reduces the diversity of the population because some variations in the population can be completely eliminated by the bottleneck effect. Even if the population recovers in population size, the genetic variation will have reduced as compared to the initial population before the bottleneck. For a mall population, this effect can be grave because the reduced genetic variation may mean that the population may be unable to adapt to new selection pressures hence may go extinct.

Honey Bees have a much different social and reproductive structure as compared to humans.
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Unlike the queen bee, which has 32 chromosomes, drones have half the chromosomal charge (n= 16), so they are considered haploid.

Explanation:

The system of determination of the sex in the bees —like in other insects— is called haplodiploidy, and consists of which the females of the species possess complete charge of chromosomes, whereas the males only possess half. This is what happens with the queen bee with 32 chromosomes, while drones only have 16 chromosomes, so they are considered haploid.

Additionally, as a characteristic of haplodiploidy, males only proceed from female gametes, so they can only contribute gametes to produce females of the species.

The other options are not correct because:

  • <em>Drones, with half of the chromosomal charge, </em><u><em>cannot be diploid</em></u><em>. </em>
  • <u><em>Monosomy and trisomy</em></u><em> are defects in the distribution of chromosomes during meiosis, which imply one chromosome less or one chromosome more in the normal chromosome charge respectively.</em>

which graph shows how enzyme activity changes as the temperature is adjusted above and below the enzymes optimum I'll temperatur
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Graph D

Explanation:

Enzyme activity will be highest at its optimum temperature.

At temperatures far below the optimum, the enzyme does not possess enough energy to work (i.e. the molecules aren't moving fast enough because of the higher temperature to increase collisions). This is called the activation energy.

At high temperatures, the enzyme can become denatured, warping its shape and catalytic activity. This means its activity will drop quite quickly until it can no longer function.

These features are all displayed in graph D.
