Apuk’we, the common cattail is a versatile native edible plant for the Ojibwe people of Minnesota. They are important to the eco

system for many reasons. They help stabilize marshy borders of lakes and ponds, help protect shorelines from wave erosion, providing spawning areas for northern pike, provide cover and nesting sites for waterfowl and marsh birds such as the red-winged blackbird, are a food source for muskrats and beavers, and humans, too. However, where native cattails once stood, now there is a vast lawn of nonnative narrow-leaved cattails or their hybrid offspring. These new cattails are taking over wetlands once populated by the native cattails, decreasing the biodiversity in these areas.
What kind of ecological relationship exists between the native and nonnative species of cattails in the Minnesota wetlands?
A) commensalism
B) competition
C) mutualism
D) predation

Answer:

B) Competition

Explanation:

The native and non-native cattails are <em>competing </em>for the area.

Answer:

Predation

Explanation:

The way the question is worded, gives me the effect that the nonnative species of cattails predated the native species and ultimately, lowered their numbers.

I was torn between competition or predation, but it cannot be competition due to the effect it's having on the native species. In competition, there's obvious tension between the two, though in this scenario, the species is just lowered completely. There's a chance it could be competition though, I'm not really understanding the wording of the scenario given; that's just me though.

So, ultimately, it's predation.

What is the relationship between water temperature and the brine shrimp and brine flies in the Mono Lake ecosystem?
UNO [17]

Answer:

brine flies prefer warm temperatures to breed in, more brine flies means more food for the brine shrimp, so brine shrimp will be able to breed more as there's more food. and vice versa- in colder temperatures there would be less breeding of the flies, meaning less food for shrimps. therefore less breeding of shrimps)

9. Which of the following is considered a Local Histone Mobilization (circle all the correct ones and explain each) a. Ejection
kati45 [8]

Answer:

Phosphorylation

Methylation

Explanation:

Histone mobilization deals with the covalent bonding of several functional groups to the free nitrogens in the R-groups of lysine in the N-terminal tail.

DNA transcription can be controlled or altered via 'methylation' on the histones. Methylation is the mode of transferring methyl group to amino group of histone proteins that form the nucleosomes, which result to chromosomes formation through wrapping of DNA double helix around it. Histones methylation can either increase or decrease genes transcription. Chromatin modification is known to stimulate neural pathways that are essential for long memories and learning.

Histones phosphorylation is associated transcriptional activation. It deals with the transfer of phosphate group to amino acids of the proteins. Phosphate group known to be negatively charged, when transferred to amino acids of the histone proteins, it creates a repulsive force with the negatively charged phosphates of the DNA backbone. It can occur in serine, tyrosine and threonine. The enzymes kinases activate phosphorylation, while protein phosphatases remove phosphate groups.
