Helen's in 1980, over 200 square miles of pristine forest were buried under millions of tons of lava, ash, mud, and avalanche de

bris. Just a year after the eruption, lupine plants are seen on the pumice plain. Lupine is a herbaceous perennial. It is: A Nitrogen Fixer Short-lived Dynamic Accumulator Beneficial Insect Attractor Beneficial Insect Shelter Ground Cover Edible Seeds As the mountain sleeps, wildlife bounces back: gophers are seen, surviving by eating the lupine. The top of Mount St Helen's was considered to be alpine tundra. How can these two organisms, the lupine and the gopher, aid in succession on Mount St. Helen's? A) The lupine is a pioneer species. It adds oxygen to the ecosystem. The gopher relies on the lupine for food and oxygen. B) Both the lupine and the gopher improve air quality; the gopher releases carbon dioxide and the lupine uses the oxygen for photosynthesis. C) The lupine and the gopher act as soil formers by decomposing the lava that is found on Mount ST. Helen's as a result of the volcanic eruption. D) Both the lupine and the gopher improve soil quality; the lupine fixes nitrogen and adds organic matter. The gopher adds organic matter and aerates the soil.

Based on the given scenario above, both the plants Lupine and the Gopher have survived on Mount St. Helen's. This has become possible because both of these plants aid in improving soil quality. The gopher is responsible in adding organic matter and also introduces air to the soil. On the other hand, the lupine is responsible in fixing nitrogen and adds organic matter. Answer is D.

Answer:

D) Both the lupine and the gopher improve soil quality.

Explanation:

The correct Answer is D, the gopher and the lupine are colonizers in this new habitat, and help in the development of the soil quality. Therefore aiding in succession by changing the ecosystem over time, and possibly allowing more types of animals and plants to live there.

Answer B) its not correct because plants use CO2 for photosynthesis not Oxygen.

Answer A) its not correct because the gopher does not rely on the lupine for Oxygen.

Answer C) its not correct because they do not decompose the lava.

Which synapse(s) are specifically responsible for the habituation of the withdrawal response?
fredd [130]

<u>Sensory neuron to motor neuron</u> are specifically responsible for the habituation of the withdrawal response.

  • The withdrawal reflex, which is the automatic withholding of a limb from a painful stimulation, is what is known as this automatic reaction.
  • Humans are shielded by this reflex from tissue necrosis brought on by exposure to noxious stimuli like pain or heat. Either the upper or lower limbs may experience it.
  • A somatic reflex, like the withdrawal reflex, and a visceral reflex, an autonomic reflex, differ in that the latter has an efferent branch.
  • The lower motor neuron in the ventral horn of the spinal cord, which immediately projects to a skeletal muscle to produce its contraction, is the output of a somatic reflex.

Answer:

Components of the electron transport chain (ordered by electronegativity from least electronegative to most electronegative):  

NADH dehydrogenase >> Coenzyme Q >> Cytochrome b-c1 complex >> Cytochrome c >> Cytochrome oxidase complex > O2

Explanation:

The electron transport chain transfers electrons from donors to acceptors via redox reactions (i.e., where reduction and oxidation occur together), and couples the transfer of electrons with proton transfer (H+ ions) across the membrane. In the electron transport chain, the electrons are transferred from NADH dehydrogenase NADH to oxygen (O2) through a series of transmembrane complexes: NADH-Q oxidoreductase, Q-cytochrome c oxidoreductase and cytochrome c oxidase. In the first place, the reduced form of coenzyme Q (ubiquinone) transports the electrons from the NADH-Q oxidoreductase to the Q-cytochrome c oxidoreductase complex (Cytochrome b-c1 complex). Second, the cytochrome c transports the electrons from this complex (i.e., Cytochrome b-c1 complex) to the Cytochrome oxidase complex, this being the last component in the electron transport chain that is responsible to catalyze the reduction of O2.
