Answer:
0.1
Explanation:
The Net Reproduction per individual per unit time (r) can be calculated as (births-deaths)/population size
Given that:
Population size of mice = 1,000; Birth = 500; Death = 400,
Net reproduction rate (r) = (births-deaths)/population size
r = (500 – 400)/1000
r = 100/1000
r = 0.1
The Net reproduction per individual per unit time (r) is 0.1
Answer:
Oxygen
Explanation:
Cellular respiration is the process whereby living organisms synthesize energy in form of ATP. However, it can either be aerobic or anaerobic depending on whether it occurs with or without oxygen. Aerobic respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen.
The aerobic cellular respiration is further divided into glycolysis, Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. The oxidative reactions used by aerobic bacteria to generate ATP use OXYGEN as a terminal or final electron acceptor.
Protists are the eukaryotes which are neither plants, animals nor fungi. But they are plant-like, fungi-like and animal-like organisms. It is difficult to classify all the protists in one kingdom Protista because of their numerous diversified traits. There are a few parasites, predators and also producers among the protists. Some have a cell wall, while others have a cell membrane. Mode of locomotion can be flagella, cilia or the pseudopodia. The best example is the <em>Euglena</em> exhibiting both plant and animal like characteristics in having a chloroplast performing photosynthesis and exhibiting locomotion by flagella. These diversified traits made the scientists to reclassify the protists. The kingdoms which arose from protist ancestors include the kingdom animalia, plantae and mycota sharing common characteristic features with their ancestor. Scientists say that we should not look for the earliest ancestors of animals among modern-day protists because, the modern day protists have gone through a process of evolution which makes them different from their early ancestors. The gradual changes during the course of evolution has made them different from their ancestors with respect to their structure, adaptations and also the genetic composition.
Answer:
<u>3. Hot spots , 4. S shaped mid oceanic ridge, pacific ocean</u>.
Explanation:
- The Hawaiian islands are located on the hotspots that are formed by the collision of two strong plates and the presence of volcanoes and high magnitude earthquakes as the pacific plate is continuously moving on the western side as its subducting under the North American plate and hence shrinking in size.
- The s-shaped Atlantic ocean has mid atlantic ridge and as this ocean spreads the lava is up welding across the ocean floor and hence the opening of the atlantic plate is seen.
Answer:
The options
A) "Medications are needed to prevent heart failure."
B) "I will take aspirin, atenolol, and captopril indefinitely."
C) "My blood pressure should be less than 130/80 mm Hg."
D) "Daily estrogen will prevent another heart attack."
The CORRECT ANSWER IS D)
D) "Daily estrogen will prevent another heart attack."
Explanation:
A reduction in the natural hormone estrogen levels could be a causative factor in heart disease increase within post-menopausal women. Estrogen is thought to show a positive impact on the inner layer of artery wall, functioning in such a way to keep blood vessels elastic.
In spite of the advantages of estrogen, the American Heart Association speaks against employing postmenopausal hormone therapy to decrease the likelihood of coronary heart disease or stroke as some research works have revealed that it vividly do not decrase the risk of heart attack but increases the likelihood of blood clots and stroke.
