What would happen to the size of the lion population if elephants usually won this competition

Lions have many other sources of prey so they would most likely still be alive. If we are excluding the existence of other animals, then lions would decrease in population after fourteen days (longest they can go without food).

Which of these types of rock must form near Earth's surface? Select all that apply.
Ahat [919]

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

igneous rocks are the rocks which are formed by the cooling of molten magma cooling can be on the surface or below the earth surface.

sedimentary surface is the rocks which are formed by the weathering or some chemical action upon the rock due to the passage of time.

metamorphic rocks are those rocks which are formed due to the high pressure and temperature acted on the rocks.

so, the best answer will be sedimentary rock

hence, the correct answer is option B

How does natural selection affect animal behavior and how behavior can affect the survival of an animal species?
Elina [12.6K]
The process of natural selection is a part of the evolution process. Let's take a herd of animals that live together so as to defend themselves and survive. If animals from the herd don't live by herd rules or similar, they will get eaten by predators or die. In time, the rebellious animals will die out leaving only those that live as a herd, and this trait will be transferred to their off-springs who will in turn behave as the herd too.

The Genetic Code was cracked by several different types of experiments. Some involved the synthesis of an RNA strand (that acted
Igoryamba

Answer:

A. Repeats of "Alanine-Arginine"

B. Repeats of "Tyrosine-Isoleucine"

C. Repeats of Aspartic acid

Explanation:

A. The synthetic RNA with GC repeats would have repeats to two codons: GCG and CGC which in turn code for alanine and arginine amino acids respectively.  Hence, its polypeptide would have repeats of "Alanine-Arginine"

RNA: GCG CGC GCG CGC GCG CGC  

Alanine-Arginine-Alanine-Arginine-Alanine-Arginine-Alanine-Arginine ...

B. The synthetic RNA with UA repeats would have repeats to two codons: UAU and AUA which in turn code for tyrosine and Isoleucine amino acids respectively.  Hence, its polypeptide would have repeats of "Tyrosine-Isoleucine"

RNA: UAU AUA UAU AUA UAU AUA

Tyrosine-Isoleucine-Tyrosine-Isoleucine-Tyrosine-Isoleucine-Tyrosine-Isoleucine

C. The synthetic RNA with GAC repeats would code for polypeptide of aspartic acid only as GAC codes for aspartic acid.

RNA: GAC GAC GAC GAC GAC GAC

24. Name two types of pathways that help a body maintain homeostasis, and an example of each.
gavmur [86]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Homeostasis refers to the maintenance of relatively constant internal body processes. This is done in two ways

  • <em>Negative feedbacks</em>
  • <em>Positive feedbacks</em>

Negative feedback returns body processes back to normal after the process has been breached. An example is when the body temperature becomes too high or too low. At too high temperature, vasodilation of the skin's blood vessels occurs and more heat is lost to the surrounding from the skin, sweat is also produced by sweat glands and evaporation of the seat causes cooling. At too low temperature, vasoconstriction occurs leading to the conservation of more heat. The muscles also shake to generate more body heat

Positive feedback ensures that a breach of body processes reaches completion. An example is when a pregnant woman starts laboring. The increase in the amount of oxytocin in the blood leads to the contraction of the uterus consequently leading to the opening of the cervix. More and more oxytocin leads to more frequent and stronger contraction of the uterus untill the baby is born.
