Answer: A) The resident populations are more likely affected by these threats because of their proximity to shore.

Explanation:

All of these threats are higher in coastal regions.

As contaminants usually reach the ocean through rivers or because of coastal cities, the highest degree of pollution is there. All chemicals will accumulate in this region first, before they disperse into the offshore region. This is also caused by the fact that the coastal waters have a lower volume and surface area than the offshore which results in a higher degree of contamination.

Difference between specialist and generalist species and their niches?? Example of both?? A little help please

igor_vitrenko [27]

A generalist species is able to survive in a wide variety of environmental conditions and can make use of lots of different resources. Generalist species have a big niche. Humans, rabbits, house flies, and raccoons would all fall under the generalist species list.

A specialist species can only thrive is a small variety of environmental conditions and/or only has a limited diet. Specialist species have a small niche. Pandas, koalas, and salamanders would all fall under the specialist species list.

Starch, cellulose, dextran, and glycogen are polysaccharides. How are they similar? To what are their different properties due?

daser333 [38]

Answer:

similarity

Starch, cellulose,dextran and glycogen are all polymers of glucose

differences

monomer/glucose glycosidic bond branching

1.starch α glucose 1-4 and 1-6 branch and unbranced

amylose 1-4 unbranched

amylopectin 1-4 and 1-6 branched

2. dextran α glucose 1-6 branched

3. cellulose β glucose 1-4 unbranched, linear

4. glycogen α glucose 1-4 and 1-6 branched (shorter

branches than starch)

Enzyme: amlase acts on starch and cellulase acts on cellulose as they are specific for their substrates.

Explanation:

Starch: Consists of both branched amylopectin and unbranched amylose

Enzymes: Enzymes are specific as the gulcose molecule in starch is α and in cellulose is β which differ in their position of hydroxyl groups at anomeric carbon, their structures differ so they form different bonds. Active sites of enzymes can act only on specific bonds a sthey can fit to their specific substrates.

How did the Mafia gain the interest and scrutiny of the public?

mihalych1998 [28]

Mafia gain the interest and scrutiny of the public through their unique and fearful actions.

Mafia gain the interest and scrutiny of the public by threatening people in the society as well as killing some of them. The main aim of Mafia is to earn money so they perform many actions in order to gain money from the public such as extortion, kidnapping etc.
