What is a limiting factor

Biology
2 answers:
inna [77]3 years ago
3 0
A limiting factor is something that restricts organism(s) from increasing their population. If you look at a graph showing the population of a certain organism, you will notice that at a certain amount of their population it stays around the same area. That is known as the <em>carrying capacity</em>. The carrying capacity is there due to the limiting factors, which depends based on the needs of particular organisms. For example, one limiting factor for a certain species might be that the number of predators increased, or there are limited resources available in order to survive.

Two solutions will be prepared with the mixture of distilled water and stock solution of KMnO4 (10 mM). Give the correct volumes
Yanka [14]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>Recall that the law of dilution states that the number of moles before dilution must be equal to the number of moles after dilution.</em>

Mathematically,

     molarity x number of moles before dilution = molarity x number of moles after dilution.

For solution A: final molarity = 3 mM, final volume = 2mL, initial molarity of KMnO4 = 10 mM

Applying the equation:

    10 x initial volume = 3 x 2

        initial volume = 6/10 = 0.6

<u>Hence, Tube A should be made with 0.6 mL of 10 mM KMnO4 stock and  1.4 mL of distilled water to give a solution of 2 mL 3 mM KMnO4.</u>

For solution B:final molarity = 8 mM, final volume = 2 mL, initial molarity = 10 mM

    10 x initial volume = 8 x 2

       initial volume = 16/10 = 1.6

<u>Hence, Tube B should be made with 1.6 mL of 10 mM KMnO4 stock and 0.4 mL of distilled water to give a solution of 2 mL 8mM KMnO4. </u>

How does a bacteria become antibiotic resistant?
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Bacteria develop resistance mechanisms by using instructions provided by their DNA. Often, resistance genes are found within plasmids, small pieces of DNA that carry genetic instructions from one germ to another. This means that some bacteria can share their DNA and make other germs resistant.

Whenever squidward laughs, his olfactory organ shrivels up. what is it?
Illusion [34]
The olfactory organ is Squidward's nose. The nose is called an olfactory organ because it is responsible for olfaction (from Latin word <em>olfactus</em> which means "to smell"). The exact mechanism why Squidward's nose shrivels up while laughing is physiologically unexplainable.
