If there weren't so many species eating the plankton, two main things could possibly happen.

1) The amount of plankton could significantly rise, to possibly dangerous levels.
2) Other species would be expected to be abundant, so that the animals can eat something else.

See, if plankton is the building block of the food web, imagine how different the animals who eat plankton would be if the building block was removed or changed?

Hope this helps! <3

Where do bile and pancreatic enzymes enter the small intestine?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

The correct answer is duodenum

Explanation:

Bile is a digestive enzyme that is secreted by the liver which is temporarily stored in the gall bladder and pancreatic enzyme is released by the pancreas. The bile is secreted to the small intestine through the common bile duct and the pancreatic duct joins the common bile duct just before ampulla of Vater which opens in the first intestinal portion which is duodenum.

So bile and pancreatic enzymes enters the duodenum region of the small intestine and after getting in the small intestine it digests the complex macromolecules into simpler and smaller form which can be absorbed through the intestinal epithelium.

What was the Court’s decision in United States v. Nixon (1974) and how did the decision uphold the idea that even the President
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

The Supreme Court decided that the President was required to turn over tape recordings and other materials that had been subpoenaed by special prosecutor Leon Jaworski.

In trying to withhold some materials related to the Watergate investigation, Nixon's lawyer had argued that the President of the United States "is not subject to the processes of any court in the land except the court of impeachment." The Supreme Court disagreed, in unanimous fashion. They held that the President could not use executive privilege as an excuse for hiding wrongdoing or avoiding prosecution. In an interview some years after his resignation, Nixon still held to his view, claiming that when the President does something, "that means that it is not illegal." He felt that being in the position of President put him above the law. But the Supreme Court had firmly disagreed. They rejected the idea of "absolute, unqualified Presidential privilege of immunity from judicial process under all circumstances." Executive privilege can only protect matters of military or diplomatic confidentiality

Compare and contrast bioarchaeology and forensic anthropology. What are their similarities and differences? g
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Bioarchaeology is a discipline that studies human skeletal remains in an archaeological investigation; while forensic anthropology refers to the study of human skeletal remains in a criminal case  

Explanation:

Bioarchaeology is a discipline centered on the study of skeletal remains in order to obtain useful information about past societies/civilizations such as, for example, health conditions. On the other hand, forensic anthropology investigates human skeletal remains within a legal and/or criminal investigation. This information may result useful to identify a dead person, find the cause of death, and estimate time since death.

Similarities:

-Both disciplines have a strong biology background (especially in zoology)

-Both disciplines are focused on skeletal analysis

Differences:

-Bioarchaeology is associated with the anthropological study of human societies, while forensic anthropology associated with legal investigations
