Is the escape of a rattlesnake from a zoo exhibit an example of an invasive species?

Biology

Brums [2.3K]3 years ago

Answer:

No, it isn't

Explanation:

An invasive species is characterized by an organism's appearance in an area it is not a native of, with a high capacity of reproduction that will cause it to be a threat to native species in that area. A species of organism is tagged "invasive" if it is foreign to a region/location and possess a high reproductive rate that spreads fast and causes harm to other species.

Based on the analogy given in this question about the escape of a rattlesnake from a zoo, it cannot be ascertained that it is an example of invasive species. This is because rattlesnakes may be native to that area and possess a zero threat level to the environment in terms of high spreading rate.

Which of these statements best describes a similarity between photosynthesis and dissolving in the sea?
Mama L [17]

The correct answer is D. Both absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

The process of photosynthesis is carried out using atmospheric carbon dioxide by green plants. Many gases including carbon dioxide are dissolved in seawater. Some of the carbon dioxide gas remains in dissolved state but most of the carbon dioxide is reacts with water to form carbonic acid. Dissolved gases in seawater make balance with atmosphere by mixing of the surface by wind and waves. Therefore, both photosynthesis and sea water take carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

Distinguishing between Rotation

Answer:

For example, put a table in the middle of your room and spin around while going in a circle around the table going round the table is revolution spinning around by yourself without going around something is rotation. Another example is the Earth revolves around the sun while rotting on it's axis and the Moon revolves around the Earth. Just like the saying the world doesn't revolve around you. It means that the world isn't based off you. :) Hope this helped.

Describe the genetic mutations that you think occurred in the cancer cells that were responsible for the phenotypic differences
ruslelena [56]

ANSWER:

Most types of cancer are believed to begin with a random genetic mutation. This is followed by mutations, which endow the cancer cells with properties allowing them to grow without normal controls to become a tumor.

Mutation is any change in the DNA sequence of a cell. Mutations may be caused by mistakes during cell division, or they may be caused by exposure to DNA-damaging agents in the environment.

Genetic Mutations that lead to cancer cell formation can occur in two forms:

1. GROWTH-PROMOTING GENES are commonly mutated in cancer cells, becoming SUPER-ACTIVE and producing cells that are too strongly stimulated by growth receptors.

2. Mutations can INACTIVATE the genes that suppress cell proliferation or those that signal the need for apoptosis. These genes are known as TUMOR SUPPRESSOR GENES.
