Marsupial mole rats evolved in New Zealand in the 1700s and had few natural predators so they overpopulated the area. Scientist

developed a virus to bring their numbers down, which was successful for awhile. After several generations though, their numbers began to increase. Why? *
A. Marsupial mole rats mated with other mole rats and created a new species.
B. Marsupial mole rats learned to survive regardless of being sick.
C. Some marsupial mole rats had a natural immunity to the virus.
d. Marsupial mole rats changed their reproductive cycle and were able to reproduce more.

Answer:

C. Some marsupial mole rats had a natural immunity to the virus.

Explanation:

According to Darwin's evolutionary theory, over time some of marsupial moles may have acquired natural immunity which evolves as an adaptive trait in the population. Since these organisms have more chance to survive and reproduce (survival of the fittest), they will likely transmit the natural immunity to the next generation .

Why do we need greenhouse gases in our air?
Law Incorporation [45]

Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide trap heat, helping warm the globe. The surge in carbon dioxide levels due to human activity since the Industrial Revolution is now causing an overall warming of the planet that is having impacts around the globe. And the burning of fuel generates not only carbon dioxide, but also air pollutants that are harmful to human health.

What is photosystem 1 and photosystem 2 and what do they do? What are the steps ?
lesantik [10]

P I and PII are proteic compounds present in the thylakoid membrane that contain about 300 chlorophyll molecules each.

<h2><em><u>Step I</u></em></h2>

First of all light with a wavelength of 690nm is absorbed by P II. The light excites an  electron that leads to the photolysis of water(H2O--->2H+ +2e- + 1/2O2). The two electrons released go into the electron transport chain. The second compound in electron transport chain is plastoquinone that is reduced when it accepts electrons then oxidised when it loses them to P I. The next two compounds are cytocromes  that make  hydrogen protons  go inside the thylakoid when they recieve the electrons.(I will mention what happens to the  H+  in the second step). The next compound in the electron transport chain is a compound that contains Fe and S. The electrons finally reach the last step: Reduction of NADP+ to NADPH+H+.

<h2><em><u>Step II</u></em></h2>

In the second step is ATP synthesis. Hydrogen protons accumulate inside  the thylakoid membrane. An electrochemical gradient is formed. The protons can leave the thylakoid according to this gradient through an enzyme.

When the protons flow through , it turns ADP into ATP.

<u>To sumarize: the role of P II is O2 production through photolysis and ATP synthesis(indirectly) The role of P I is NADPH+H+ synthesis.</u>
