Many different relationships exist between organisms in an ecosystem. These relationships include competition for food, shelter,

and
other resources as well as predation in which one organism kills and consumes another for food. There are also symbiotic
relationships. Symbiosis is a close relationship between two species in which at least one species benefits. For the other species, the
relationship may be positive, negative, or neutral. There are three basic types of symbiosis: mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism.'
Evaluate each of the relationships depicted in the choices. Select ALL the relationships illustrating commensalism.

What is the term expressing how a receptor can be stimulated by a certain stimulus but not any other stimuli?
Sveta_85 [38]

Receptor specificity Physical energy such as light, sound, and heat is detected by specialized receptor cells in the sense organs—eyes, ears, skin, nose, and tongue. When the action potential that relays information about the stimulus through the nervous system to the brain. Sensory receptors take in information from the environment, creating local electrical currents; These currents are graded.

Assume that the growing polypeptide chain of amino acids being produced represents an enzyme humans use to help digest starch. T
arlik [135]

Answer:

B) nuclei of gland cells.

Explanation:

DNA carries the blueprint for the production of all the proteins including enzymes in human beings. Humans are eukaryotes and their DNA is present in the nucleus of their cells. All the cells that make the complex human body are derived from division in the zygote and therefore, are genetically identical and have the same DNA.

However, gene expression is regulated by the expression of specific genes in specific cells and at a different time of developmental stages. Amylase is the enzyme that digests starch in humans. Amylase is secreted by salivary glands. So, the nuclei of these glands would have genetic information for the synthesis of amylase.

An air mass forms over the North Pole region describe what you think the temperature and humidity of this air mass will be like?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer: hope this helps :)

The motion of air mass motion is usually based upon the air flow in the upper atmosphere. As the jet stream changes intensity and position, it affects the motion and strength of air masses. Where air masses converge, they form boundaries called "fronts".

3-D view of a cold front.

Fronts are identified by change of temperature based upon their motion. With a cold front, a colder air mass is replacing a warmer air mass. A warm front is the opposite affect in that warm air replaces cold air. There is also a stationary front, which, as the name implies, means the boundary between two air masses does not move.

The motion of air masses also affects where a good portion of precipitation occurs. The air of cold air masses is more dense than warmer air masses. Therefore, as these cold air masses move, the dense air undercuts the warmer air masses forcing the warm air up and over the colder air causing it to rise into the atmosphere.

So, fronts just don't appear at the surface of the earth, they have a vertical structure or slope to them as well. Warm fronts typically have a gentle slope so the air rising along
