Answer:
Reading graphs: The variable plotted on the x-axis is year while the two variables plotted on y-axis are both wolves and moose.
Interpreting variables: The population of moose rose from 800 to 1550 between 1965-1972 while the population of wolves rose from 24 to 43 between 1973-1976.
inferring: The change in population of moose might cause a change in wolves population as a result of the feeding pattern of wolves, perhaps the contest between them was affected by availability of another prey which allows the predator (wolves) to feed on another prey, hence increasing the population of moose.
Conclusion: The dip in population of moose between 1974 and 1981 could be attributed to voracious feeding pattern the predator (wolves) had on the prey (moose) which inturns allows the dip in population during the above mentioned years.
Predicting: If there is a disease infection in wolves, then there would be an increase in the population of moose the next year as a result of disruption in the predator-prey contest, hence; allows one to be more populated the following year.
Explanation:
From the above assertions, it could be deduced that only when the feeding pattern of the predator (wolves) changes then the population of the prey would either be reduced or increased.
Answer:
Like a prokaryotic cell, a eukaryotic cell has a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, and ribosomes, but a eukaryotic cell is typically larger than a prokaryotic cell, has a true nucleus (meaning its DNA is surrounded by a membrane), and has other membrane-bound organelles that allow for compartmentalization of functions.
The statement that describes the cell after twenty minutes is this: WATER WILL MOVE FROM THE CELL INTO THE BEAKER RESULTING IN A SMALLER CELL.
Osmosis is defined as the process by which the molecules of a solvent move through a semi permeable membrane from the region of lower concentration to the region of higher concentration. For the question given above, the concentration of 30% salt is greater than that of 10% in the cell, so the water molecules will move from the cell [region of lower concentration] into the salt solution [region of higher concentration]. The loss of water will make the cell to shrink and to become smaller.
Answer:
<em>The correct option is C) Water is repelled by the hydrophobic tails of the phospholipid.</em>
Explanation:
The cell membrane is made up of phospholipids. The phosphates make up the head and are hydrophilic. The lipids make up the tail and re hydrophobic. The cell membrane is double layered with the heads pointing outwards and the tails embedded inwards. As lipids do not dissolve in water, hence the cell membrane is partially permeable for water. The tails made up of lipids are hydrophobic and hence repel water.
