A marine ecologist counts the number of crabs in three different intertidal regions that are each two hectares. The crab counts

are 7, 2, and 6, respectively. What is the best estimate of population density per hectare for this particular species of crab?

Answer:

Density is nearly 3 cabs per hectare

Explanation:

Given -

There are three three intertidal regions.

Area of each intertidal region is 2 hectares.

Number of crab in the intertidal regions are as follows -

Intertidal region I - 7

Intertidal region I - 2

Intertidal region I - 6

Sum of crabs in all three regions is equal to

7 + 2+ 6\\= 15

Total area of all three intertidal regions is equal to

2 + 2+ 2\\= 6 hectares

Now density per hectare is equal to total population of crab divided by total area of all the three intertidal regions

Density = \frac{15}{6} \\= 2.5

Density is nearly 3 cabs per hectare

What do high and low air pressure systems mean in terms of density?
Arada [10]

<span>There are two physical differences between Low pressure systems and </span>High pressure systems.

First, is the circulation surrounding them.

Secondly, is the atmospheric motion that they cause.

Low pressure systems circulate counter-clockwise. High pressure systems circulate clockwise. These "motions" are the building blocks in our atmosphere. They give us our weather.

A Low’s counter-clockwise circulation forces air upward (ultimately resulting in condensation, cloud formation and ultimately precipitation). A High’s clockwise circulation causes a sinking motion in the atmosphere, resulting in fair/clearer and often sunnier skies.

________ is the main form in which carbon dioxide is carried in the blood.
V125BC [204]

Carbon dioxide is transported in the blood in three ways: (i) dissolved in solution; (ii) buffered with water as carbonic acid; (iii) bound to proteins, particularly haemoglobin. Source: https://academic.oup.com/bjaed/article/5/6/207/331369

Assume that you have 1 mL of a solution of amylase (an enzyme) at a concentration of 15 mg protein/mL. Calculate the volume of d
lidiya [134]

Answer:

42,5 mL

Explanation:

We need to use the serial dilution formula beacuse we start with a stock concentrate solution and we need to prepare a new less concentrated one.

DF=\frac{Vi}{Vf}

<u>DF in the dilution factor, Vi is the initial volume and Vf is the final volume.</u>

The first step is to have the same measurment unit so we need to convert 345 µg to mg.

we know that 1 µg equals 0,001 g, hence:

345 µg = 0,345 mg

now the final volume is 0,345 mg  protein/ mL and the inital volume is 15mg protein/mL, both of them are in the same unit so we can use the formula

DF= \frac{15mg protein/mL}{0.345mg protein/mL}

DF= 43,5 mg protein/ mL

Now since the question said that we already have 1.0mL of the amylase stock solution we need to subtract that 1.0mL to the 43,5 mg protein/mL

43,5mL-1,0mL = 42,5 mL

So, we need 42,5 mL of diluting buffer if we want a final concentration of 345 µg protein/mL (0.345 mg protein/mL)
