Which factor can cause secondary succession?

Biology
2 answers:
Elden [556K]3 years ago

Answer: a) clear cutting

Explanation:

An ecological succession is a change in the biotic community of an ecosystem with respect to changes occurring in the abiotic factors (non-living) such as sunlight, water, climate and climate in the course of time until the ecosystem attains stability. A secondary succession occurs in a region which was previously colonized by the living species but disturbed by human induced or natural calamity.

A secondary succession will occur in clear cutting because of the fact that some of the precursors such as seeds, stem stocks and roots can give birth to new plants and may help in recolonization of the region.

'm going to say <span>clear cutting </span>because clear cutting reduces a ecosystem/population of species that has been there for a while or long while. With secondary succession it is a process that is triggered by an event such as clear cutting or natural disasters.

Hopefully this helped and good luck.

What is a cross-bridge?
devlian [24]

Answer:

d. the movement of myosin head while attached to actin myofilament

Explanation:

During muscle contraction, the calcium ions released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum in the sarcoplasm bind to troponin which in turn removes tropomyosin from the myosin-binding sites present on the actin. Hydrolysis of ATP at the myosin heads energize them. These myosin heads with stored energy bind to the myosin-binding sites on the actin filaments. In their bound conditions on the actin filaments, myosin heads are called cross bridges. Only one myosin head of a single myosin molecule forms cross-bridge at a time.

If C-1 of glucose is radiolabeled and the glucose then enters glycolysis, what percentage of the pyruvate molecules will carry t
Talja [164]

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

Glucose is a simple sugar with a total of 6 carbon atoms in its structure. Pyruvate has a total of three carbon atoms. Two molecules of pyruvate are obtained per glucose by glycolysis.  None of the carbon of glucose is released in the form of CO2 during glycolysis. Therefore, the radio-labeled C-1 of glucose will be the component of the carbon skeleton of one of the total of two pyruvate molecules produced during glycolysis. So, 50% of the pyruvate will exhibit radioactivity.

Explain the life cycle of frog in detail​
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The first stage is the egg stage. Eggs are usually laid in or near water. A frog can lay thousands of eggs at once. The eggs are laid in large groups. There are covered in jelly which makes them slippery. The jelly protects them from other animals eating the eggs.

The second stage is the tadpole stage. A tadpole hatches from the egg. The tadpole breathes using gills and moves like a fish. It uses its long tail to swim. Tadpoles eat tiny water plants.

The third stage is the froglet stage. It grows lungs and legs. Its gills disappear. Its tail gets shorter until it disappears too. The froglet swims to the top of the water to breath.

The last stage is the adult stage. A frog can leave the water now and live on land. It eats insects, worms and snails. Mother frogs return to the water to lay eggs. the air.

7nadin3 [17]

Answer: comparative anatomy

Explanation:Darwin   proposed that the forelimbs of human, bats and other creatures (whale) are similar.  Although these Fore limbs are used for different purposes; he reasoned that similar forelimbs must have the same origin(Anatomy). He therefore concluded that these organisms should share same ancestors for evolution of modern Organism forms. He reasoned further that these modifications in body structures are required adaptations for survival in the competitive environment –survival of the fittest.  

Charles Darwin was an evolutionist, a biologist of immense knowledge. He formulated the law of survival of the fittest
