Answer:

The environmental factors which need to be investigated before clearing the land can involve living and non-living factors. The land clearing will remove species of animals and plants acquiring their habitat in the forest. The loss of floral species will affect the faunal species. The faunal species will extinct, decrease in number or may migrate to different locations. Therefore, complete loss of biodiversity will result.

This will also result in disturbance important cycles in nature like water, oxygen, nitrogen and carbon which will lead to disturbance of rainfall, seasonal or weather changes. Soil an important non-living factor will loose it's fertility due to soil erosion.

What would happen to an ecosystem without decomposers?
Sholpan [36]
A, plant growth would decrease. Decomposers break down organic materials into nutrients and return these nutrients to the soil. The nutrients are vital to plant growth. If decomposers went extinct, then eventually plants would use up all the existing nutrients and start to die.

What is a reproductive strategy
Bumek [7]
A reproductive strategy presents an approach of a type of an organism to reproduction and of taking care of it's offspring.  

Generaly speaking, there are two main reproductive strategies, K and R reproductive strategies.

The organisms that apply the R strategy produce a great number of small, independent offspring and when the offspring is born or hatched it's left to
try to survive on its own. This strategy is used by bacteria, many invertebrates, and reptiles.

On the other hand, the K strategy organisms produce a small number of offspring that they care of for a significant amount of time after they are born. This strategy is used mostly by mammals and birds.

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C, that is, in the mother in meiosis II.

Explanation:

A nondisjunction in meiosis I produce all the aneuploid gametes, while nondisjunction at meiosis II produces 50 percent aneuploid gametes and the 50 percent normal gametes comprising haploid number of chromosomes.  

As it is mentioned that one of the brothers possess normal number of chromosomes (46), the mother encounters nondisjunction at meiosis II resulting in the formation of one n+1 gamete exhibiting two copies of X chromosome. Fertilization of this n+1 gamete with sperm results in the creation of zygote (47, XXY).
