Answer:

B.

Explanation:

Florida's climate itself hasn't particularly changed a bunch, but in the 20th century the population of Florida has increased. Plus D and C are easy to rule out. The easiest explanation for the panther's decline is the fragmentation of their habitat, and human interaction with the environment, not hunting per se. Good news is that the Florida panther's population has gone up to over 100!

Best of luck, and feel free to ask for any clarification.

B . Hunting decimated the population badly, and it was one of the first species added to the U.S. endangered species list in 1973. The Florida panther's current status is listed as endangered. Today there are only 120 to 130 Florida panthers left in the wild.

Cell A = Sperm cell

Sex of rabbit = Male (bc males produce sperm cells)

12. Recent developments have resulted in the ability to clone cats. Many people argue that cloning offers pet owners comfort in
ipn [44]

Cloning is a process of producing genetically identical organisms through the techniques of biotechnology. Reproductive cloning of animals involves the somatic cell nuclear transfer in which the nucleus from an adult donor cell is transferred to an egg cell from which the nucleus has been removed. It is then incorporated into the uterus of a surrogate animal.

Pet cloning is not acceptable because of the following reasons-

(1) Its a very expensive procces with a high rate of failure.

(2) The clones produced tend to develop health problems. Large Offspring Syndrome (LOS) with very large organs is observed showing problems with blood flow and breathing with respect to heart and lungs, renal failure and other complicated issues.

(3) The clones are susceptible to skeletal abnormalities, higher rates of infection and tumour development. This results in a high mortality (death) rates.

(4) Since a surrogate mother is involved in the process of cloning, they experience a lot of health problems while carrying the embryos and sometimes it can be even killed.

Thus, cloning of pets is not acceptable as it affects both the cloned animal and the surrogate mother which is not preferred. Instead, adopting a homeless pet will provide shelter to another animal with a better nourishment.
