The diversity of species in a community refers to the

Biology

alexgriva [62]3 years ago

Number of individuals of the species in the area. For example a school of fish requires a large amount of individuals to avoid inbreeding. A species that is very imbred is the Northern Elephant seal, having originated from a few select individuals after being nearly driving to extinction. Although these seals have made a meraculous recovery, they suffer from their inbreeding with damage to their spines and cateracts.

Why are decomposers and detritivores essential parts of all food webs?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer: Detritivores improve the nutritional value and the texture of the soil: This makes the soil productive to plant life which translates to availability of food for the herbivores and carnivores like human beings. They however do not complete the energy cycle as their wastes are energy products that need to be decayed.

Decomposers help in converting the leftovers of animals and plants to useful substances for other living organisms. They are mainly bacteria and fungi. Have you ever wondered what would happen if the decomposers and consumers were not in the ecosystem?

Detritivores play a very important in the cycle as they are the consumers of dead leaves, old skin, carcasses and manure. They include millipedes, earthworms and slugs that feed on dead plants and animals but leave some parts and their feces that are converted to energy by the decomposers. Players in the energy cycle function hand in hand, a decomposer is found at the lowest part of the cycle as it deals with the remains. They complete the energy cycle. The roles of the decomposers and detritivores almost coincide.

Hope this helps !!! Good luck !!! ;)

Which of the following statement(s) are true with respect to graded potentials?a. A graded potential has a threshold Graded pote
puteri [66]

Answer:

Following statements are correct

A graded potential has a threshold Graded potential amplitudes decay over distances

Graded potentials can summate in space and time

Graded potential amplitude increases with stimulus strength

Explanation:

Graded potential is generated in a neuron when ions enter or exit through the ligand gated channels. In general, this potential decreases with time before reaching axon. Signals that reach the graded potential, determine whether the amplitude of the potential will reach the threshold and hence causes action potential. Graded potential travel only over a short distance and is either depolarization or hyperpolarization. Their strength reduces with time as the charged ions move out of the membrane. They summate temporally or spatially

Graded potentials spread by passive means i.e spreading electronically to neighboring membrane regions.

Hence, the correct statements are

A graded potential has a threshold Graded potential amplitudes decay over distances

Graded potentials can summate in space and time

Graded potential amplitude increases with stimulus strength
