Answer:   This is what I could find on it.

There are many external factors that can disrupt homeostasis. Disease, toxins, and pathogens are just a few examples.

Some diseases can have external causes, like a toxin or pathogen invading the body. Toxins are products of plants, animals, fungi, or bacteria that hurt cells in some way.

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

E-You disagree because the resulting increase in phytoplankton at the surface would inhibit sunlight from penetrating into the water, thus inhibiting photosynthesis in the submerged plants.

Explanation:

Eutrophication is the process wherein nutrients specifically phosphorus and nitrogen are present in excess in a water body such as a lake. The increased concentration of nutrients promoter the growth of cyanobacteria and algae such as phytoplankton.

The increased population of phytoplankton in surface water reduces the oxygen availability and clarity of water for the organisms present in deeper layers.  Also, reduced clarity of water limits the amount of solar radiations penetrating the surface water to reach the deeper layers.

Increased nutrient levels of the lake would rather inhibit the growth of submerged plants due to reduced availability of sunlight as caused by presence of phytoplankton in surface water.

Describe maximum parsimony.
Burka [1]

Maximum Thrift is a method / philosophy that considers the shortest tree (in number of transformation steps) the best hypothesis about the phylogenetic relationship of a given set of terminals. Transformation step is the cost attributed to the change of character state in a given branch of the tree, be it the change from one nucleotide base to another, amino acids, or the color of an animal's iris. The fewer transformations, the shorter the tree, and therefore the more parsimonious.  In this method, what programs do is to investigate as many alternative topologies as possible (or all if their array has less than 25 terminals; see more details below) given their character array. Each will be measured, and the shorter (optimal) trees will be retained as the most parsimonious result.

Concepts: What key concepts or ideas do you think are important and worth holding on to from the text?
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Osmosis is a process in which molecules pass from semipermeable membrane.

Explanation:

Osmosis is a biological process. The solvent molecules pass through semipermeable membrane and then solute particles move through the membrane with the help of water. These molecules are not capable of passing through the membrane in absence of water.
