How can pollution be found in greater amounts at higher trophic levels compared to lower trophic levels?

Answer: D. Biological magnification

Explanation:

A food chain is a linear sequence of transfer of food and energy when one organism is consumed by another organism. The transmission of food and energy takes place from the lower trophic level to higher trophic levels when organisms of the lower trophic level are consumed by the organisms of higher trophic levels.

Biological magnification is a phenomena in which a toxic material or pollutant enters into the food chain. The material remains undigested in the body of the organisms and causes detrimental effects. The organisms at the highest trophic levels decline in number due to the increase in concentration of the toxic at the higher level as they consume organisms of the lower trophic levels.

According to the given situation, biological magnification is the correct option because here the amounts of pollution at the higher trophic levels is the greatest as compared to the lower trophic levels.

Five closely related species of frogs live in ranges that overlap. Some breed in woodland ponds, some in lowland swamps, and som
Anarel [89]

The answers are; geographical isolation and temporal isolation.

In temporal isolation, because the different species have different mating seasons, so even though their habitats overlap, they do not interbreeding is rare. Geographical isolation also plays a role because the different species are found predominantly in different sites during breeding, some in the woodland, some in the lowlands and others in streams.

In the last stage of cellular respiration, oxidative phosphorylation, all of the reduced electron carriers produced in the previ
Mumz [18]

Explanation:

ADP, O2, NADH

Respiration in the mitochondria utilizes oxygen for the production of ATP in the Krebs’s cycle via the oxidization of pyruvate( through the process of glycolysis).

Oxidative phosphorylation describes a process in which the NADH and FADH2 made in previous steps of respiration. The process give up electrons in the electron transport chain these are converted it to their previous forms, NADH+ and FAD. electrons continue to move down the chain the energy they release is used in pumping protons out of the matrix of the mitochondria this forms a gradient where there is a differential in the number of protons on either side of the membrane the protons  re-enter the matrix through the enzyme ATP synthase, which makes the energy storage molecules of ATP from the reduction of ADP.  At the end of the ET see molecules of oxygen accept electrons and protons form molecules of water.

Which molecules are distinctively different in bacteria and archaea? . . A. fatty acids. B. transfer DNA. C. RNA polymerases. D.
patriot [66]

Answer:

C. RNA polymerases.

Explanation:

Bacteria has a primitive type of RNA polymerase while archaeal RNA ploymerase is more advanced and complex than that of bacterial. The structure of  archaeal RNA ploymerase has more resemblance with RNA polymerase II of eukaryotes. The RNA polymerase of bacteria requires sigma factor for transcription initiation whereas the RNA ploymerase of archaea requires transcription factors for transcription initiation just like eukaryotes.
