Why do biologists measure the number of trophic levels in an ecosystem?
slega [8]

Answer:

Biologists measure the number of trophic levels in an ecosystem so as to check its stability and health.

Explanation:

Trophic levels are the feeding position in a food chain such as primary producers, consumers, etc. They are positions that an organisms occupies in a food chain (series of steps in which organisms transfer energy by eating or being eaten);- what it eats and what eats it. 

Theoretically there is no any limit to the number of trophic levels in a food chain or number of organisms that live on each level.

The brilliant research scientist, Professor "Iron-Mike" Scrawll is studying a new pore-forming toxin from the pathogenic bacteri
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

The correct option is C - Professor Scrawll applied 100 nM BurD to the cells for 24 hours, while Dr. Bogey applied 1 nM BurD to the cells for 12 hours.

Explanation:

The correct option is C - Professor Scrawll applied 100 nM BurD to the cells for 24 hours, while Dr. Bogey applied 1 nM BurD to the cells for 12 hours.

As the exotoxin, BurD is very stable and lyse the ankle cells very quickly, more concentration and more time of action should only lyse the cells. Perhaps Dr.Bogey's ankle cells were not lysed because the concentration she used was only 1nM compared to the 100nM concentration used by Dr. Scrawll, and the time period of incubation was only 12 hours compared to the 24 hours used by Dr. Scrawll.

Considering the other explanations given in the remaining options, the concentration and time of incubation used by Dr. Bogey are more than that used by Dr. Scrawll which should only have possibly lysed the cells. Moreover, contamination with bleach also should have only lysed the cells.
