Answer:

Invasive species do not have natural predators and therefore usually overgrow, invading other species habitat and breaking the normal ecosystem process.

Explanation:

When a species its brought by human mistake to a new environment where they can successfully adapt and grow. This invasive species can usually reproduce and grow rapidly, using many resources and therefore affecting the native species. Part of their success its because in many cases, they do not have natural predators or pests. A well known example its the introduction of the Lionfish to the Caribbean Sea.

Imagine a protein that has been engineered to contain a nuclear localization signal, a nuclear export signal, a C-terminal perox

Masja [62]

Answer:

This sequence would target the peroxisome

Explanation:

When the protein is made it will be able to target several organelles in the cell
However, the C-terminal sequence is the last sequence transcribed and when the protein is complete this sequence will be the sequence used for targeting the specific organelle
in this case, the C-terminal sequence targets the peroxisome

The solutions in the two arms of this U-tube are separated by a membrane that is permeable to water and glucose but not to sucro

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is: the level of liquid in Side A will rise.

Explanation:

Sucrose is formed of two molecules of glucose but the membrane is impermeable to it.
The given membrane is said to be permeable to water and glucose.
Through a semi-permeable membrane, molecules tend to move from a region where its concentration is high to another region where its concentration is low by the process of diffusion until its concentration in the two regions becomes equal. This phenomenon is known as Osmosis.
Concentration gradient of a molecule can be defined as the difference in the concentration of the molecule in two different regions separated by a semi-permeable membrane.
Considering glucose, the concentration of glucose is low in side A (1M) and high in side B (2M), so it will tend to move from side B to side A down its concentration gradient.
Considering sucrose, although its concentration is high in side A (2M) but low in side B (1M), it is unable to move as the membrane is impermeable to it.
Water tend to move from a region where the concentration of solute is low (or water concentration is high) to a region where the concentration of solute is high (or water concentration is low).
Due to the movement of glucose from side B to side A, the concentration of total solute concentration becomes high in side A as compared to side B. Therefore, water would move from side B to side A.
Hence the level of liquid in Side A will rise after sometime.

Which of the following correctly describes the importance of the nitrogen cycle?

victus00 [196]

The answer is C. To decompose death animals.

That's a very important thing to be done in life. Can you imagine it, all animals death without being decomposed, left there for like years and years... That would be so smelly!

I hope this helped you! Good luck!!
