One of the reasons why the fish population remains approximately the same from one generation to the next is because not all the eggs laid will survive to adulthood. There are several factors which bring about elimination of the the newly hatched eggs. Examples of these are predators and diseases which eliminate the young offsprings at different stages before they develop into adulthood. 
Secondly, production of many eggs by the different fish species leads to competition for survival. Resources such as water, food, oxygen and shelter have to be fought for and its only the fittests that will be able to survive till the reproduction stage.

What chemical compounds are in a sunflower?​
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:  The major components of the sunflower seed hull, lipids, proteins and carbohydrates.

Explanation: The major components of the sunflower seed hull, lipids, proteins and carbohydrates were studied Lipids represent 5.17% of the total hull weights, 2.96% of which is wax composed of long chain fatty acids (C14–C28, mainly C20) and fatty alcohols (C12–C30, mainly C22, C24, C26).

Clathrin coated vesicles bud from eukaryotic plasma membrane fragments when adaptor proteins, clathrin and dynamin-GTP are added
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer: Clathrin cages assemble, vesicles form but cannot be pinched of but no disassembly occurs so the vesicles remain coated in clathrin.

Explanation:

Endocytosis is a cellular mechanism that allows the introduction of extracellular material into the cell. Clathrin-coated vesicles act to incorporate different molecules that are recognized by specific proteins located in the clathrin-coated pits. Upon invagination of a portion of the plasma membrane, the material is transported to its final intracellular destination.

<u>Clathrin is a protein that forms the lining of cell membrane microcavities where various receptors are located. Once a particle is recognized by the receptors, invagination of the plasma membrane occurs, which then fuses to form an endocellular vesicle.</u> When vesicle budding occurs, the vesicle is detached from its attachment to the membrane with the help of a GTPase protein called dynamin. Then, the vesicle is freed from clathrin by the action of a type of ATP-ase called Hsp70-ATP and docks to late endosomes that are immediate precursors of lysosomes, fusing the membranes of both. The fission of the clathrin-coated vesicle is controlled by the GTPase dynamin and it has been proposed that dynamin acts by generating the necessary force to strangle the "neck" and cleave the vesicles from the membrane. So they are mainly involved in the cleavage of newly formed vesicles from the membrane of one cell compartment, their orientation, and their fusion with another compartment. Also, without the dynamin, vesicles are not freed from clathrin.

<u>In the absence of dynamin, vesicles are formed but the membrane fusion or pinching off will not occur. Then, invaginated coated pits will be found.</u>

State the five requirements for a population to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
mihalych1998 [28]

When it comes to population evolution and genetics, we cannot fail to cite the Hardy-Weinberg principle which emphasizes that if evolutionary factors such as natural selection, mutation, migration and genetic oscillation do not act on a particular population, the frequencies genotypic proportions will remain constant.

The five requirements for a population to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are:

  • Large-scale breeding population: For a population to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, it is important that this population is large, as small populations favor genetic drift (unanticipated fluctuations in allele frequencies from one generation to another).
  • Random mating: In order for the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium to occur, it is necessary that the mating occur at random, with no preference for certain groups within the population. In this case, we say that the population is in panmixia, that is, they all mate at random.
  • No mutations: Mutations alter the total alleles present in a population (gene pool). Therefore, in a Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium population, no mutations should occur.
  • No gene flow: When there is gene flow due to migration or immigration of individuals, some genes may be included or excluded from the population. Thus, in an equilibrium situation, no gene flow occurs.
  • Lack of natural selection: For a population to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, natural selection must not be acting on it. If natural selection acts, some genotypes will be selected, modifying the allelic frequencies of the population.
