Read the passage. Then evaluate the need for a solution and consider each solution suggested. Which solution do you think is mor

e likely to be successful? Explain your reasoning.
Passage

People traveling to an island accidentally introduced mice into an ecosystem that previously had no mice. The population of mice quickly grew out of control. It started harming populations of native plants and birds. Scientists offered two solutions. One was to introduce cats to the island. The cats could hunt and eat the mice. The other suggestion was to introduce a disease that could infect the mice and reduce their population.

Answer:

Cat.

Explanation:

Introduction of cat can control the population of mice on the island more effectively as compared to the introduction of disease because the introduction of disease can cause damage to other population of that environment that adversely affected the ecosystem. Cat feeds on mice that act as a controlling agent in this ecosystem that will leads to decrease as well as controls the population from increasing in order to cause damage to the environment.

Red Flag can be explained or described as signs and symptoms that can be found in either medical history of a patient or/and patient clinical examination, which may show or explain that a disorder is tie to a pathology. This means that, the signs may be a warning  of a potential serious disease.

Lethal genes (genes that result in the failure to develop a vital organ or metabolic pathway) are nearly always recessive. Anima
allsm [11]

Answer: C

Explanation:

When breeders notice a unique trait of interest and selectively breed to increase their population, there is tendency of also increasing the population of lethal genes. This happens via a situation known as inbreeding depression. There is a tendency to mate closely related individuals in a bid to increase the occurrence of a desired phenotype. However, in a situation where these animals have a recessive lethal gene, it may result in a double recessive thus becoming obvious in the population.

This element is a gas that is found in both nucleic acids and in amino acids, important building blocks of life. What is it? A.
damaskus [11]

Answer:

Yes, your answer, nitrogen, is correct (the most appropriate option). However, oxygen is also a correct option.

Explanation:

Nitrogen exists on its own as a diatomic gas. However, it exists as organic nitrogen in nucleic acids such as DNA and RNA (as part of their nitrogenous bases) and in the amino (--NH_{2}) group of amino acids.

Do note that a case can also be made for oxygen as a right option: like nitrogen, it exists as a diatomic gas and can be found in both nucleic acids and in the carboxylic group of amino acids.

Sulfur is not an appropriate option as nitrogenous bases (and nucleic acids) to the best of my knowledge do not contain sulphur although some amino acids like cysteine do.

Carbon is not also an appropriate option because elemental carbon does not exist in gaseous form even though it can be found in both nucleic acids and amino acids.
