The right answer is C
The carrying capacity (or carrying capacity, or limiting capacity) in ecology is the maximum size of the population of an organism that a given environment can support, ie the capacity of this environment to:
- provide the necessary resources to ensure the sustainability of this species - repair the attacks (pollution, disruption of natural ecological regulations) inflicted by this species on its environment.
At this size a balance will be reached between the number of organisms born and the number of dead organisms.
The gravity they have stays the same all the time unless their mass decreases, but they have less gravitational force on each other as they move apart.
Answer:
The correct answer is option 4.
Explanation:
Viruses cannot be considered alive as they cannot carry out metabolic reactions on their own. Metabolism signifies the tendency to gather and use energy. The chemical reactions in the cells spontaneously change the molecules into the forms of energy, which can be utilized by the organism.
However, in the case of viruses, they are too small and simple to collect and utilize their own energy. They are completely dependent upon the host cells for energy. The viruses only require energy when they need to make duplicates of themselves, however, they do not require any energy when they are present outside of the cell. Thus, as they cannot carry out metabolic reactions, they are not considered as living.
