The graph represents a typical carrying capacity graph, or the maximum population size a certain environment can support for an

extended period of time, for particular species. Under ideal conditions, a population naturally increases until it overshoots the carrying capacity. At this point, the environment can no longer provide for the species, due to a number of different environmental resistances. The population, due to lack of resources, will begin to die out, allowing the environment to recover.
Based on the trends of the carrying capacity graph, what is the predicted population of organisms, in millions, in 1950?
A) 1.25 million
B) 1.75 million
C) 2.0 million
D) 3.0 million

Answer:

B) 1.75 million

Explanation:

In the graph, the blue line is labelled as the carrying capacity. This must mean the purple line is the predicted population.

Above "1950" on the x-axis, the purple line reaches a space about halfway between 1.5 million and 2.0 million.

1.75 million is halfway between these two numbers.

Human mutations may increase resistance to some infectious diseases. Humans which carry the mutant gene, the "sickle cell allele
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

1 - Malaria

2- Typhoid fever and Tuberculosis

Explanation:

In case of malaria, the causal microorganism is Plasmodium falciparum, which target red blood cells of host. In humans who have defective sickle cell allele, have abnomral shaped red blood cells. So microorganism does not able to attach to abnormal shaped RBCs thus humans having sickle cell allele are more resistant to death caused by malaria.

In cystic fibrosis, mutation on that gene which encodes a protein known as cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR).

Normally Salmonella typhi (bacteria responsible for typhoid fever) enters into intestinal cells by attaching with CFTR receptor. Carriers of cystic fibrosis mutant gene, have abnormal CFTR thus reduced rate of entry of bacteria into carriers.

Normally Mycobacterium tuberculosis (bacteria responsible for tuberculosis) adds sulfate in its cell walls. In carriers of cystic fibrosis, arylsulfatase B activity is reduced which incorporates sulfate. Thus reduced arylsulfatase activity makes bacteria unable to add sulfate in its cell walls thus decreases their virulence to carriers of cystic fibrosis.

Which structure is NOT matched with its function? Which structure is NOT matched with its function?
maw [93]

Answer:

a. ciliary body: focus the pupil

Explanation:

The choroid thickens behind the iris and forms the circular ciliary body. Ciliary muscles are present in the ciliary body. The lens is attached to the ciliary body by ligaments. The function of the ciliary body is to holds lens in place and to serve in accommodation.

When focusing on a distant object, the relaxed ciliary muscles make the lens is flat and the suspensory ligament is taut. When focusing on a near object, the contraction of the ciliary muscles of the ciliary body allows the lens to accommodate. The lens becomes rounded causing the suspensory ligament to relax. Thereby, the ciliary body regulates the shape of the lens for near and far vision.
