Answer: A. They often form mutualistic relationships with native organisms.

A non- native or invasive species is  species which when immegrated or introduced into a ecosystem compete for resources with native species, and can cause decrease in number and extinction of native species.

Scientist estimate that 200 non-native organisms have been introduced into Chesapeake Bay this will lead to conditions like the non-native organisms can deplete the food sources of native organisms, they can be aggressive at acquiring and maintaining territory and they can prey on native organisms causing them to go extinct. But these organisms cannot form mutualistic relationships with native organisms as both have same ecological niche in an ecosystem, so there will be competition not mutualism. Also, mutualism is a interspecific relationship between different species in which all interacting species gets the benefit, but here competing nature of invasive organisms will not prefer mutualism.

Bacteria grow best in food that has a pH factor that is _____.
Andru [333]
Bacteria in general grow optimally when the pH is around 7 (5-9 let's say). That is not to say that there are not bacteria that grow in extremely acidic conditions, like in our stomach, or others in extremely basic conditions, like the conditions near volcanoes. Nonetheless, bacteria that grow in food prefer acidic environments over basic ones and usually cannot tolerate the acidity of fruits which is around 4 pH for the most acid ones. For example, stuff like milk and bread that have a pH from 5-6 are prime examples of food where bacteria would thrive. Thus, the correct answer would be b.

What is the normal physiological response to increased intake of sugars?
user100 [1]

Answer:

A fast increase in blood sugar causes a rapid increase in insulin, which is the hormone responsible for allowing glucose to enter cells. High insulin levels cause glucose levels to quickly fall, which can then cause you to feel hungry again, prompting you to take in more calories.

GrogVix [38]
.-. from what I can see, no :/. but then again I cant see the model for the dog if there isnt. But based of this, the Skeleton structure isnt within a same group class, but the Dolphin and Dog do share a similar inside, such as similar Lungs, Immune system, both require air to breath (despite the dolphins ability to live in water)

Natali5045456 [20]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is:

A client with myasthenia gravis improves and is discharged from the hospital. The discharge medications include pyridostigmine bromide (Mestinon) 10 mg every six hours. The nurse evaluates that the drug regimen is understood when the client says, "I should:

1

Take the medication on an empty stomach."

2

Set an alarm so I take the medication on time."

3

Take my pulse rate before taking the medication."

4

Monitor for an increase in blood pressure after taking the medication."

Answer:

The correct answer is statement 2.

Explanation:

Pyridostigmine refers to an essential drug, which must be consumed on time, as a late or missed dose can lead to extreme neuromuscular and respiratory consequences or even death. Pyridostigmine should be consumed with a small concentration of food in order to inhibit gastric irritation.  

It is not essential to take the pulse rate prior to taking the medication. Pyridostigmine may result in hypotension, however, not hypertension, which is not an indication of cholinergic crisis.
