Birds are the main predators of these beetles; they hunt the beetles by sight and pick them up off of the tree bark where they feed. A logging company clears the trees off of the island and plants younger trees as a replacement. Trees with light bark are planted on one side of the island and trees with dark bark are planted on the other side of the island. What do you predict would happen to the range of coloration in the populations of beetles on each side of the island?
Select TWO answers, one to represent the beetles living on the light colored trees and one to represent the beetles living on the dark colored trees. (2 points)

D. graph 5 below
Answer:
B. graph 3 below
D. graph 5 below
Explanation:
The original population of beetles (Graph 1) shows that most individuals had an intermediate phenotype between dark and light color. The graph expresses its highest point in the middle of the phenotypic ax, while the curve´s tails coincide with light and dark colors.
Probably, most of the trees inhabiting the whole island had some darkish color tone, which beetles used to camouflage and avoid predation.
When the company cleared the area and reforested, they planted light trees on one half and dark trees on the other half of the island. This change in the environment modeled the beetled phenotype, together with predation pressure.
<em>If we consider the whole original population, we should say that it went under a disruptive selection.</em> But if we think about the sides of the island separately, we could say that the population living on each side went under directional selection. We are not thinking about the whole population of beetled inhabiting the whole island, but two groups inhabiting each side of the island.
- Graph 3 represents the beetles inhabiting the part of the land with dark trees. The population went under directional selection, and most of them turned into dark-colored to camouflage with the substrate in which they live.
- Graph 5 represents the beetles inhabiting the other part of the land with light trees. The population went under directional selection, and most of them became light-colored to camouflage with the substrate in which they live.
<span>The nitrogen cycle could not exist without first nitrogen. The cycle is about this specific element which goes to show that if this element is not present then, there will not be any nitrogen cycle. Also, an important factor for the cycle is the presence of the bacteria and other microorganism which are needed for the fixation. </span>
Answer: False
Explanation: The COMPLEMENT SYSTEM consists of proteins synthesized in the liver. They are activated by inespecific harmful substance (antigen) and begins a cascade of proteins that finally forms an attack complex against bacteria.
The COMPLEMENT is part of the INNATE IMMUNITY, because it is an inherent response, something all humans born with, and it is part of the first defense barrier against any antigen. Part of the innate immunity are too: natural killer cells, neutrophils, monocytes, dendritic cells and macrophages.
On the other hand, the ADAPTATIVE IMMUNITY, is the response that the body develops after being exposed to an antigen before. It is like something that the body recognizes, and then "learns" how to act against it. Part of the adaptative immunity are: lymphocyte T and B, and the antibodies (substances called Immunoglobulins). The immunoglobulins (Ig) are glycoproteins present in the blood.
Answer:
Symbiosis is any type of interaction between two different species of living things in the same environment. A predator-prey relationship is between two animal species —one kills and eats the other. ... Commensalism is an interaction benefiting one organism, and neither benefiting nor harming the other.
Explanation:
Magnesium is the major mineral which is important for nerve and heart functions. It is a co-factor for over 300 enzymes. It is a major constituent of bone and is found in whole grains and vegetables. Sudden heart attacks may be due to the low level of magnesium. It can be obtained by consuming rice bran, sunflower seed, wheat barn and linseed meal.
