Answer: B) Predator/prey
=========================================================
Explanation:
The lynx is the predator that hunts and eats the snowshoe hare, which is the prey.
The graph shows that when the hare population is large, so is the predator population because they rely on the hares as a source of food. However, the more predators there are, the less prey there will be. This causes the prey population to decrease. In turn, this decrease causes the predator population to decrease as well. If there's less food, then some of the lynx population will starve to death.
At some point, the hare population will rebound and go back up due to less predators eating them. They have a better chance to survive. As the hare population goes up, so does the lynx population. They're both strongly linked together, and we have this cyclic pattern the graph indicates. You could say this is "the cycle of life" or "cycle of nature" so to speak.
This is a very simplistic viewpoint because it does not account for other factors such as other predators and other prey, and it also doesn't take account of things like habitat loss for instance. Despite that, such predator-prey models are still useful to understand the connection between the two species.
Answer:
<u><em>Tube A will turn red the fastest. </em></u>
Explanation:
- Tube A will turn red fastest because Elodea plants will take up the white light and carry out photosynthesis.
- In tube B, the red colour will not be generated fastly because plants do not use green light. Usually, the green light is just reflected by the plants and it is not absorbed.
- In tube C, no photosynthesis will be able to occur because due to the wrapped aluminium foil the plants could not receive any light for photosynthesis.
<span>1. Breathing moves air in and out of the lungs.
2. Oxygen diffuses from alveoli in the lungs into capillaries.
3. Oxygen enters red blood cells, where it binds to the protein hemoglobin.
4. Oxygen diffuses from the blood to the body's tissues, and carbon dioxide diffuses from the tissues to the blood.
5. Carbon dioxide leaves the body when exhale.</span>
Answer:
e. bind to troponin which moves the tropomyosin.
Explanation:
Troponin (Tn) is a protein complex composed of three different proteins: troponin C (TnC), troponin I (TnI), and troponin T (TnT). This complex is found both in skeletal muscles and cardiac muscles, where TnC attaches calcium ions through four and three calcium ion-binding sites, respectively. When a muscle is relaxed, Tn attaches to tropomyosin to prevent muscle contraction. During muscle contraction, calcium channels open and cytosolic calcium ions bind to TnC, thereby Tn changes its conformation and moves the tropomyosin. This process relieves the inhibition of the interaction between actin and myosin filaments, which makes muscle contraction possible.
