Explanation:

1. The Burmese python is an invasive species in the Everglades ecosystem. This means its numbers increase dramatically due to lack of natural predators. The python is feeding on small mammals such as rodents that feed of egg of animals such as the turtles. This, therefore, causes a ripple effect on the food web in the ecosystem e.g dramatically increasing turtle population.

2. Due to the lack of natural predators in the ecosystem, the Burmese python causes an imbalance in the Everglade ecosystem. They reduce the biodiversity of the ecosystem hence diminishing the quality of natural resources.

3. The number of Burmese pythons can be regulated by introducing a predator in the Everglade ecosystem. Examples of animals that can prey on the snake are eagles, pumas, lions, crocodiles, cobras, and humans. This will reduce the numbers of the Burmese python and restore the balance in the ecosystem.

Define excretion and list the ecretory product of mammals and indicate where each product is formed

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Excretion is a process by which metabolic waste is eliminated from an organism. In vertebrates this is primarily carried out by the lungs, kidneys and skin. This is in contrast with secretion, where the substance may have specific tasks after leaving the cell. Excretion is an essential process in all forms of life.

Answer:

A trait that is going to be dominate is the No Cleft because it is the most produced data.

Surveying different people like your friends will add data that could be random, unlike just doing a data analysis on your family where the results will be similar, adding outside data will "Spice things up" and make it interesting.

I can help you out with some but I can not just do your homework for you, this looks like a whole lab assignment, If you get confused let me know and I can help you with the rest but I can't do it all for you.

In a certain mutant strain of bacteria, the enzyme leucyl-tRNA synthetase mistakenly attaches isoleucine to leucyl-tRNA 10% of t

Effectus [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is "proteins in which isoleucine is inserted at some positions normally occupied by leucine".

Explanation:

The missing options of this question are:

A. proteins in which leucine is inserted at some positions normally occupied by isoleucine.

B. proteins in which isoleucine is inserted at some positions normally occupied by leucine.

C. no abnormal proteins, because the ribosomal translation machinery will recognize the inappropriately activated tRNAs and exclude them from the translation process.

D. no proteins, because the inappropriately activated tRNAs will block translation

The correct answer is option B. "proteins in which isoleucine is inserted at some positions normally occupied by leucine".

In normal conditions, the enzyme leucyl-tRNA synthetase attaches one leucine amino acid to leucyl-tRNA as part of synthesis of proteins that have one or more leucine residues in their sequences. Since the enzyme of this mutant strain of bacteria mistakenly attaches isoleucine to leucyl-tRNA 10% of the time, approximately 10% of all the proteins that normally have leucine residues will going to have isoleucine. Therefore, These bacteria will synthesize proteins in which isoleucine is inserted at some positions normally occupied by leucine.
