The estimated expected (mean) time for project completion is 50 weeks, time management includes all the activities necessary to achieve the target date of delivery of the project. It includes the following activities: identification of activities, logical sequencing of activities, estimation of duration of activities, and preparation of the project schedule. For the preparation of the schedule we will see various methods such as resource leveling, simulation, and the critical chain method.
Answer:
DNA replication a process of copying of a cell's DNA. DNA replication is semiconservative process which means that each strand in the double helix helps in the synthesis of new, complementary strand and conserve the parent template.
The Molecular mechanism of DNA replication is as following:
- The double starnded DN in binded with hydrogen bond, the enzyme helicase opens up the DNA at the replication fork.
- A single stranded binding protein prevent the rewinding of DNA and so binds to the DNA around the replication fork
- Topoisomerase prevent supercoiling at replication fork.
- The ezymes primase come in action and produces RNA primers which are complementary to the DNA strand.
- DNA polymerase III help to extends the primers and allow them to add to the 3' end, to make new DNA.
- DNA Polymerase then remove RNA primers and replace with DNA.
- DNA ligase blocks the the gaps between DNA fragments.
So, this is the molecuar mechanism of DNA replication.
Answer:
A food chain is a representation of what eats what in an ecosystem.
A combination of food chains is termed as a food web.
Example of two food chains in a food web are :
Example No 1:
Plant----- Grasshopper------ Frog---snake--- bacteria
Example No 2:
Plant---- rabbits---- fox---- bacteria
In a food chain, producers are usually plants and algae which are able to make their own food. Consumers feed on the plants. In example no 1, grasshoppers are primary consumers, frogs are secondary consumers, snakes are tertiary consumers.
In example no 2,plants are producers, rabbits are primary consumers and foxed are secondary consumers.
Decomposers are organisms that feed on the dead organisms in a food chain. In both the examples of food chain, bacteria are the decomposers.
Q1:
Answer:
Studies have reported that due to predation of pythons on rabbits, the population of other predators is badly affected.
Bobcats are a natural predator of rabbits thus they come in a competition with pythons for food. As pythons are more powerful so they target rabbits more easily than Bobcats. The population of Bobcats has been declined by 90% or more due to the establishment of pythons in the Everglades.
<em>Alligator mississippiensis </em>or American alligators are also abundant in Everglades and just like Bobcats they compete with pythons for their food. They can even kill pythons if pythons are smaller in size than them, but python will kill alligator if he is of smaller size. Although rabbits are food for both alligator and Python but Alligator is a key stone specie and it has very important ecological role, because it digs holes in land that retain water upon rainfall. These water hole provide water in the extreme dry weather and help in survival of other small specie like insects and birds.
So, we can expect the population of Alligator, Bob cats and other small insects and birds to decline rapidly if Python population kept on increasing with same speed.

Q2:
Answer:
There is no doubt that Pythons pose serious threat for both humans as well as survival of other organisms like Alligators and birds. However, I donot think that “Python challenge” is a reasonable way to kill or remove Pythons. Because It can threat the lives of many individuals who take part in competition, although they are trained but still they are nor professionals and get training of only few weeks so it is not safe competition.
There should be some strategy of introducing natural predators like Brown beers, Cougars and Alligators which can kill python naturally without staking the life of humans at risk.
Hope it helps!
