Answer:

The correct answer is: C. They will have a lower energy efficiency.

Explanation:

Similar to aerobic cellular respiration, <em>anaerobic cellular respiration </em>uses electrons taken from a fuel molecule to drive ATP production through an <em>electron transport chain</em>. Bacteria and archaea are prokaryotes that survive in low-oxygen conditions and use anaerobic respiration to break down energy.

Methanogens, for example, can employ carbon dioxide as a terminal electron acceptor and produce methane as a by-product. Methanogens may be found in soil as well as in the digestive tracts of ruminants. Fermentation is another anaerobic (non-oxygen-requiring) process for breaking down glucose that is used by a variety of species, including bacteria.

However, <u>the </u><u>glucose breakdown performed by anaerobic respiration isn't complete</u><u> and thus, the energy released is </u><u>19 times less</u><u> than aerobic respiration for the same amount of glucose</u>.

Answer:

Transgenic

Explanation:

Recombinant DNA technology is used to make transgenic organisms. Genetic material from one specie is inserted into the genome of another thus modifying its characteristics. There are several ways of doing this including electroporation and transduction. This process is referred to as genetic engineering.

Two species of closely related frogs are found in the same pond high in the Andes of South America. Both species only have teeth
IgorLugansk [536]

Complete question:

Two species of closely related frogs are found in the same pond high in the Andes of South America. Both species only have teeth on the top jaw. One has small teeth for holding small live prey prior to swallowing. The other species has very large sharp teeth for injuring and killing large prey prior to biting off pieces of flesh for consumption. The above is an example of:

  • Directional selection
  • Analogous structures
  • Character displacement
  • Hybridization
  • Vestigial structures

Answer:

  • Character displacement

Explanation:

Competition is an ecological and evolutive process very common in nature. Competition might be intra- or interspecific. Competition between different species in a community or ecosystem might be due to the same resource use, or the same territory, shelter, etcetera. When a resource is useful for two or more species, and limited, they compete to gain it.

The principle of competitive exclusion states that different species with the same requirements sharing the niche can not coexist indefinitely based on the same limited resource. When <u>two competing species coexist, this is because of niche partitioning or niche differentiation</u>.

Differentiation of effective niche is closely related to <u>character displacement.</u>

<u>Character displacement</u> is the result of interspecific competition, in which two or more species that live in the same habitat manage to avoid competition by developing different traits. Morphological divergence, or any adaptative trait development, fixated genetically, is the product of niche segregation. Species tend to differentiate morphologically in the presence of strong competitors. Traits divergence favors coexistence in the same place.

In the exposed example, both species live in the same pond. But to avoid competition and competitive exclusion, species developed different teeth sizes to feed on different prey items.
