A group of scientists working for the University of Florida commented on the lack of alligators in a swampy area around Jacksonv

ille, Florida. They hypothesized that recent land development for housing and an increased human population had driven the alligators from their normal habitats. The scientists tracked the population data of alligators in the area for a period spanning 100 years and concluded that their hypothesis was correct; human sprawl had greatly lowered the alligator population.
Based on the data in the passage, the restriction of residential development in and around Jacksonville would have what type of impact?


A) It would help restore the alligator population to pre-1900 levels.
Eliminate
B) It would help to revive the dwindling population of local alligators.
C) It would help stop the local alligator population from decreasing further.
D) It would help re-establish the swamp areas needed by the alligators to live.

Read about symbiosis using this link. Then answer the questions provided. Identify the type of symbiosis described. The saguaro
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Mutualism

Explanation:

Mutualism is also referred to as inter specific cooperation, a phenomenon in which two organisms from two different species co-exist in such a way that both get benefit from each other, either from their activities or from their fitness. Such behavior is commonly termed as cooperation.

Here in example, we see that saguaro cactus provides food for the white-winged dove through its large fruit. The bird eats that fruit but along with fruits it also ingests the seeds present in fruits. SO, when the bird flies to some new location, it drops the seeds there. In this way cactus can colonize new lands and spread offspring in new places while birds get their food. Both get benefit so it was a mutulalistic relationship.

Hope it help!

In garden pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant to white flowers (p), and full pod shape (F) is dominant to constricted po
kifflom [539]

Answer:

The phenotypes are as follows

Purple, full- 9

Purple, constricted- 3

White, full- 3

White, constricted- 1

Genotype of parents are PpFf, each produce the following gametes: PF, Pf, pF and pf.

Explanation:

This is a dihybrid cross involving two distinct genes. One coding for flower color and the other for pod shape. The allele for purple color (P) is dominant over the allele for white color (p) while the allele for full pod (F) is dominant over the allele for constricted pod (f).

In a cross between two heterozygote parents i.e. PpFf × PpFf, each parent will produce the following gametes: PF, Pf, pF and pf. Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image) the following 16 offsprings will be produced in a phenotypic ratio: 9:3:3:1

Purple color, full pod- 9

Purple color, constricted pod- 3

White flower, full pod- 3

White flower, constricted pod- 1

Why do cells divide instead of just grow larger
hjlf
There are two main reasons why cells divide rather than continuing to grow larger and larger. One of the main reason is that the larger cell become more demanding, therefore the large cell will increase load on the machinery of the cell such as DNA. The other reason is that if the cell grow too large it will be difficult for the cell to move for nutrients and discard the waste across the cell membrane. Also the surface area for each cell will also be reduced, which is required for active functionality of a cell.
