10) _____ agree that native wildlife should have the priority on federal land areas

Environmentalists

Explanation:

1) The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is responsible for managing over 247.3 million acres, or an eighth of the country's landmass.

2) Even though horses & burro aren't native to America; their ancestors, along with cattle, came to the States with the Spanish explorers 500 years ago, with some escaping to the wilds, herds began to develop and adapt.

Since herding Wild burros for food was not as profitable as wild horses, they were turned to the mining industry, becoming the main work animal of the industry, since their small size made them perfect for working in narrow mine tunnels.

3) Velma B. Johnston, was known as “Wild Horse Annie” because she was the main defender of wild horses and burros being slaughtered for pet food. Thanks to her, Congress passed a bill to prohibit planes and trucks from rounding up the animals in 1959.

4) The other name that wild horses were known by in the 70's was Mustangs, so a Mustanger was a horse thief

5) Wild Deer and wild elk have no direct competition for food, they might overlap but they coexist because one feeds on shrubs and the other feeds on grass.

6) Bears have been feeding from dumpsters and campgrounds and will continue to do so for one reason: it's easy. Since they are free to roam, and they have develop a taste for human food, and the availability and storage is easy to access, then that is a problem.

7) Yellowstone National Park recently reintroduced native wolves to the park as a method to re-balance the natural biome of the area, since they were the natural predator of rodents and similar wildlife, that at the moment were being controlled by traps or poisons.

8) When cattle overgraze, ranchers tend to burn the land to make it fertile again and re-grass it, causing an overtime erosion.

9) Cattle and horse ranching requires a lot of water so the Department of Fish & Wildlife wants to repair said damage recovering waterways & allow fish to reestablish their populations, for this they have requested a 5 year period of no cattle or horses in the area.

10) Environmentalists agree that native wildlife should have preference on federal land to protect diversity & manage land, in fact this is included in the Federal Land Policy & Management Act

1.large biological macromolecules carry out several roles in the human body. What is one of these roles?
jeyben [28]

The correct answer is: D. all of the above

A macromolecule is a large molecule present in the cell, composed of a huge number of monomer units with the various functions. There are four main groups: proteins (monomers are amino acids), nucleic acids (monomers are nucleotids) , lipids (monomers are free fatty acids) and carbohydrates (monomers are simple sugars such as glucose).

Some of their functions:

• Provide structure on the cellular levels-lipids (phospholipids) are the main components of the cell membrane;  

• store genetic material-nucleic acid (DNA, RNA) are the carriers of genetic information

• store energy-starch is energy source in plants;

• enzymes -proteins often are with the functionin metabolism

• etc.

The model below represents a DNA molecule. The presence of which element best provides evidence that nucleotides are the buildin
uranmaximum [27]
DNA has 3 components; phosphate, a sugar called deoxyribose (a 5 carbon sugar as opposed to the sugar in the picture which is a 6 carbon sugar - glucose) and a nitrogenous base (adenine, thymine, guanosine or cytosine). So if you look at those 3 pictures, the only one is the nucleotide that's part of the DNA.

Re-read the question: the presence of phosphorous is the answer!!

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

1. When two bones join together and fuse so that no visible separation occurs, it is referred to as a(n) <u>synostosis,</u> or bony joint.

2. Bones that join together and are held in place with threads of collagen, form a joint that is called a(n) <u>synarthrosis</u>.

3. The most complex joints are called <u>synovial</u> joints. They display varying amounts of mobility.

4. Bones joined together with cartilage between the ends of the bones, form a joint called a(n)<u> amphiarthrosis</u>.

Explanation:

The ossification of the connective tissue between two bones results in the fusion of them. As a result, now there is one bone instead of two. It's is called synostosis.

A synarthrosis is a joint that has very little or no movement at all. It has threads of collagen around them that keep the joint together.

A synovial joint is a diarthrosis joint. They have a wide range of mobility and are complex due to the number of components:

  • A fibrous joint capsule connected to the two bones.
  • A synovial membrane.
  • Synovial fluid to lubricate the joint.
  • Articular cartilage on the bones' joint surfaces.

An Amphiarthrosis is a joint with limited mobility. This type of joint has fibrocartilage that connects the two bones. We can find it in the pubic synthesis.

What releases glucose into the blood stream?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Insulin helps your body turn blood sugar (glucose) into energy. It also helps your body store it in your muscles, fat cells, and liver to use later, when your body needs it. After you eat, your blood sugar (glucose) rises. This rise in glucose triggers your pancreas to release insulin into the bloodstream.
