Because predator species often will switch its prey as one prey species becomes less abundant.
Why this is so should be obvious - because it's not in the interest of predators for the prey species to completely die out as it would effectively also mean that they would die out due to not having enough food to eat.
Answer:
An ionic bond is formed between a metal and a non-metal. Covalent bonding is a form of chemical bonding between two non metallic atoms which is characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms and other covalent bonds.
Explanation:
There are two types of atomic bonds - ionic bonds and covalent bonds. They differ in their structure and properties. Covalent bonds consist of pairs of electrons shared by two atoms, and bind the atoms in a fixed orientation. Relatively high energies are required to break them (50 - 200 kcal/mol). Whether two atoms can form a covalent bond depends upon their electronegativity i.e. the power of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons to itself. If two atoms differ considerably in their electronegativity - as sodium and chloride do - then one of the atoms will lose its electron to the other atom. This results in a positively charged ion (cation) and negatively charged ion (anion). The bond between these two ions is called an ionic bond.
Answer:
Air moves into the lungs from atmosphere
Explanation:
As per the gas law, pressure of a gas is indirectly proportional to the volume of the gas. Thus, if volume increases pressure decreases.
Here, the volume of alveoli has increased due to which the pressure within the alveolar space reduces such that the atmospheric pressure outside alveoli becomes higher than the alveolar pressure within the alveoli. Due to this difference in pressure, the air gushes into the lungs.
Answer:
The modified hemoglobin with free imidazole cannot be expected to show cooperativity in oxygen binding. The movement of iron ion takes place up in the plane of heme when binding of one subunit of hemoglobin takes place with oxygen. One of the iron's and oxygen's axial ligands comprise the proximal histidine's imidazole ring.
With the movement of iron into the hemoglobin ring, the pulling of proximal histidine takes place along with it. Therefore, when binding of oxygen takes place with one subunit, a modification also takes place in the intersubunit associations, this also comprises displacement of the alpha helix. This phenomenon plays an essential role in modifying the hemoglobin's tensed state to the relaxed state. The withdrawal or mutation of the imidazole ring from the histidine residue does not further permit the cooperative binding as it is not associated physically with the alpha-helix.
