this involves small scale changes within a community that occur repeatedly over the life of that community

Biology
1 answer:
Akimi4 [234]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

<u>Succession  </u>involves small scale changes within a community that occur repeatedly over the life of that community.

Ecological communities are highly dynamic- they gradually evolve. Typically their progression involves:

  • colonizing species exploiting uninhabited areas (Primary succession)
  • becoming a habitable and increasingly complex community
  • there is increased diversity of organisms (Secondary)

Further Explanation:

The makeup of biological communities is crucial to defining Primary and Secondary succession; eventually, through changes in this makeup, a steady-state or equilibrium is reached called a climax community. While Primary succession starts off with the modification of a previously unoccupied area along with increasing variation; secondary succession begins after major disruption in the community such as fires, storms and flooding.

However, the process of becoming a climax community can be pretty complicated- it is very dependent on other factors like temperature and rainfall. Communities that experience rapid change, frequent major disruptions and even human intervention, are less likely to attain a stable equilibrium and may never become climax communities.

Organize the terms isotonic hypertonic and hypotonic in order form the solution with the lowest concentration of dissolved parti
STatiana [176]

Answer: hypotonic, isotonic, hypertonic

Explanation: The tonicity of a solution depends in part on its concentration of the solute that can not pass the membrane (non penetrating solute) relative to that inside the cell.

Hypotonic solution (hypo means less): contains less concentration of non penetrating solute relative to that inside the cell. Water will enter the cell and the cell will swell and late.

Isotonic solution (Iso means same): it contains thesame solute relative to that in the cell, there will be no net movement of water across the plasma membrane.

Hypertonic solution (hyper means more) Hypertonic solution contain more solute relative to that in the cell. Hence the cell will lose water to its environment and may shrink and die.

Which statements describe telomeres and the actions of telomerase?
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Option (d).

Explanation:

Telomere may be defined as the repetitive DNA sequence present at the ends of the chromosomes. Telomeres consists of the nucleotide sequence rich in G and consists of vertebrate sequence  AGGGTT.

The mutation in telomerase enzyme can cause the excessive replication of the telomeres. These leads to the excessive cellular proliferation and makes the cell immortal. This extensive growth of telomere is one of the maine reason of the cancer development.

Thus, the correct answer is option (d).

6. What mechanisms or events are needed for a star to make heavier elements than iron?
lana [24]

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

A star's energy comes from the combining of light elements into heavier elements in a process known as fusion, or "nuclear burning". It is generally believed that most of the elements in the universe heavier than helium are created, or synthesized, in stars when lighter nuclei fuse to make heavier nuclei. The process is called nucleosynthesis.

Our Sun is currently burning, or fusing, hydrogen to helium. This is the process that occurs during most of a star's lifetime. After the hydrogen in the star's core is exhausted, the star can burn helium to form progressively heavier elements, carbon and oxygen and so on, until iron and nickel are formed. Up to this point the process releases energy. <u>The formation of elements heavier than iron and nickel requires the input of energy. </u>Supernova explosions result when the cores of massive stars have exhausted their fuel supplies and burned everything into iron and nickel. The nuclei with mass heavier than nickel are thought to be formed during these explosions.
