Answer:

d. competitive exclusion

Explanation:

The amount of individuals of a given species that the resources of an environment can support is called the carrying capacity. The density of a population is often less than its carrying capacity when it is limited by predators. If predators are withdrawn, the population may increase to the point of carrying capacity or beyond so that crucial resources are insufficient and the population collapses.

Competitive exclusion has little effect on the carrying capacity of an ecosystem, because if two species are using a common food source, which has little source, the growth of one may deprive the other of its food source. Under some conditions the fastest growing species causes the other population to die and prevents the environment from reaching the limit of carrying capacity.

Answer:

Experimentos de índole descriptiva han demostrado que diferentes tipos de virus no pueden desplazarse por aire, con lo cual estas estrategias resultan efectivas para evitar su esparcimiento en la población

Explanation:

El distanciamiento social y el uso de barbijos son herramientas útiles para combatir la propagación de muchos virus, especialmente aquellos con un alto indice de infección, como es el caso del nuevo Coronavirus Sars-Cov-2 el cual está asociado a un síndrome respiratorio agudo que puede incluso llevar a la muerte del individuo. Sars-Cov-2 es un virus muy peligroso porque todavía no contamos con un tratamiento efectivo tal como, por ejemplo, una vacuna que permita generar una respuesta inmunológica permanente contra el virus. De este modo, es imprescindible evitar la propagación del virus hasta que la comunidad científica pueda desarrollar un tratamiento efectivo.
