he exterminator proudly tells you that they are using biological concepts to get rid of these pests, and he generously sprays a solution of juvenile hormone all over your house. Assuming there are no breeding adults and only nonreproductive nymphs, which of the following would you expect in the days after the visit from the exterminator?
A. The number of nymphs will increase immediately after the exterminator sprays.
B. The number of adults will increase immediately after the exterminator sprays.
C. The number of nymphs will stay the same after the exterminator sprays.
D. The number of adults will decrease after the exterminator sprays.

Answer:

The correct answer is - option C.

Explanation:

The case in this the biological exterminators asks to use the biological concept which includes spraying the solution of the juvenile hormone to get rid of nymphs of specific insect and according to the assumption, this solution causes some alteration on the ability to reproduce of such nymphs and leads to only nonreproductive ones.

On the given condition the increasing of nymphs, the number of adult nymphs or decreasing of nymphs can not be condition and as the reproductive ability is affected the number of nymphs would be the same.

Thus, the correct answer would be - option C.

The German Cockroach is more closely related to the American Cockroach than it is to the Desert Cockroach.
Mnenie [13.5K]

German roaches have flat bodies with six legs, two antennae projecting from their heads, and flat bodies, just like their American cousins and other cockroach species. Contrarily, American cockroaches are typically reddish-brown in appearance and develop to a length and width of around an inch and a half.

<h3>What is Cockroach?</h3>

Cockroaches are an insect paraphyletic category that includes all Blattodea members with the exception of termites. Only about 30 of the 4,600 cockroach species have any connection to habitations by people. Some species are infamous for developing pest problems.

Elephants are considered K-strategists because they give birth to only one calf at a time and most have five years in between ha
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Type I curve

Explanation:

The K-strategist are species characterized by relatively stable populations that fluctuate at the carrying capacity of the habitat or niche in which organisms reside. Elephants are considered as K-strategists because they have a low population growth rate and relatively stable populations. There are three different types of survivorship curves. The Type I curve (also referred to as A curve) is characteristic of k-strategist organisms. Humans and elephants exhibit a Type I survivorship curve in which organisms tend to die when they become elderly. These species have a small number of offspring and provide parental care to ensure their survival. In a Type II survivorship curve, species produce many offspring and only some offspring survive (e.g., birds), while in Type III survivorship curve organisms produce many more offspring and most do not survive (i.e., r-strategists such as frogs or insects).

Suppose molecules were unable to diffuse into and out of the cells. How might life be different if cells had to use active trans
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Cells would most probably not exist because these units of life metabolize energy molecules like glucose to harness their energy for the running of biochemical processes, like active transport, to support life. However, harnessing this energy from these energy molecules is NOT 100 percent efficient. A higher percentage of energy is lost as heat in the process.

Therefore if the cells were required to carry all molecules in and out of the cell, actively, including the energy molecules themselves (which is counterintuitive), this would require a lot of energy and would be unsustainable. This would be analogical to the counteracting and infinite loop of more fuel needed to carry the mass of the more fuel in space travel...
