Answer:

There are several environmental factors that causes changes in the ecosystem and the population of that area such as invasive species, extreme weather, land use change, pollution and disease.

Lets take invasive species as environmental factor. Introduction of invasive species can cause a huge change in the ecosystem and affects the native population in that area. it increases the competition for food resources and decreases the survival rate of their preys.

For example: Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes). It is an invasive plant species that has very bad impact of native population as well as other population, like it reduces biological diversity, oxygen loss, decreased phytoplankton productivity,  eliminate plants that animals use for nesting, and alter animal communities by blocking access to the water.

Thus invasive population can affect population by reducing biodiversity, water shortages, decreasing availability and quality of key natural resources, disturb the food chain and can cause natural calamities.

Invasive species affect the resources that native species are using and that decreases the carrying capacity of the native population as it disturbs the whole food chain.

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

DNA is a molecule composed of two chains in form of a DOUBLE HELIX compose by ORGANIC NITROGEN CONTAINING BASE, PHOSPHATE GROUPS and PENTOSE.

Explanation:

Nucleic acids are found in all living cells. They are composed of strands made up of repeating units called nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of

--> a five carbon sugar( PENTOSE)

--> a phosphate group

--> an organic nitrogen containing base: adenine, guanine, cytosine or thymine.

The two types of nucleic acids include:

--> Deoxyribonucleic acid ( DNA) and

--> Ribonucleic acid ( RNA)

Deoxyribonucleic acid ( DNA) is found in chromosomes located in the nucleus of cells.

STRUCTURE OF DNA

The DNA molecule consists of two strands that curve spirally to form a double helix structure. The strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between the base side arms. Each base on one strand will only pair with a specific base on the other strand: hence guanine will only pair with cytosine and adenine with thymine.

FUNCTIONS OF DNA

It stores the organism's hereditary traits and directs the day to day metabolic activities of each cell in the organism.

Which of these is a disadvantage of CT scan technology?
Vilka [71]

CT (Computerized Tomography) scan uses X-ray images with the aid of a computer to generate cross-sectional views of a patient's anatomy. An MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) on the other hand is a scan that uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce a detailed image of the body’s soft tissues and bones. An disadvantage of CT scan technology is the radiation exposure. Correct answer: C The level of the radiation depends on the design of the scanner, the size of the patient, the anatomic volume scanned, the scanning protocol, the technique used, and the quality of the x-ray beam
