Biology

kolbaska11 [484]3 years ago

The answer is A. The cuticle is a protective film that is non cellular covering the outer cell layer (epidermis) of green, aerial parts of plants. Cuticles protect plants against drying (desiccation), UV radiation, and various kinds of physical, chemical and (micro)biological agents. The cuticle also provides some support. Actually the cuticle which protects the underlying tissues has basically the same function as our own skin. In several groups of plants, cuticles are very resistant. Only few groups do not generally have highly resistant cuticles e.g. ferns and lycopods.

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

 ≈ 572

Explanation:

<u>Predict the size of the California condor in 2022</u>

we can predict this value with this relation below

Nt  =  No*e^(rt)  --- ( 1 )

where ; Nt = Future population , No = initial population,  r = intrinsic rate of increase ,  t = time

No = 235

r = 0.089

t = 2022 - 2012 = 10

Insert values into equation  1

Nt = 235 * e^( 0.089 * 10 )

    = 235 * e^0.89

    ≈ 572

Therefore the size of the California condor population in 2022 ≈ 572

What are the effects of fishing on the reef ecosystem
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Coral reef fish are a significant food source for over a billion people worldwide. Many coastal and island communities depend on coral reef fisheries for their economic, social, and cultural benefits. But too much of a good thing can be bad for coral reefs. Download this infographic | Infographic Text

Coral reef ecosystems support important commercial, recreational, and subsistence fishery resources in the U.S and its territories. Fishing also plays a central social and cultural role in many island and coastal communities, where it is often a critical source of food and income.

The impacts from unsustainable fishing on coral reef areas can lead to the depletion of key reef species in many locations. Such losses often have a ripple effect, not just on the coral reef ecosystems themselves, but also on the local economies that depend on them. Additionally, certain types of fishing gear can inflict serious physical damage to coral reefs, seagrass beds, and other important marine habitats.

Coral reef fisheries, though often relatively small in scale, may have disproportionately large impacts on the ecosystem if conducted unsustainably. Rapid human population growth, increased demand, use of more efficient fishery technologies, and inadequate management and enforcement have led to the depletion of key reef species and habitat damage in many locations.
