Famine- High population means more mouths to feed
Disease- Diseases usually spread more quickly with people who live closer( as it can just move from one person to the other)
War- People like to fight for land, resources, money, etc. And having more of those things mean they are more able to support families, communities, and more.

(Hope this helps a little)

Answer:

Larger populations lead to an increase in the demand for resources. Since the resources available do not increase with the increasing population, resources become scarce as there is an increased demand without an increased supply. Famine occurs when there is not adequate food supply for a population, which is directly related to the scarcity of resources that can come about due to a large population. Disease is more likely when large numbers of people are in close proximity and when resources are scarce. The likelihood of war increases as the competition for resources increases as well.

Define the components of blood and briefly describe their role.

Grace [21]

Tha main components in blood are the plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, and blood platelets.

Plasma is like the main component that makes up most of the blood. It has a light yellow color and it carries many substances including nutrients, waste, hormones and more.

Red blood cells are the reason why blood is red in color. They have a hemoglobin inside them which can help carry oxygen for the tissues and organs. In order to maximize the oxygen carrying capacity, they don't have a nucleus.

White blood cells can be divided into phagocytes and lymphocytes. Their main function is to protect us from diseases. Phahocytes and engulf and digest bacteria, while lymphocytes can produce antibodies.

Blood platelets can cause blood clotting which can stop us from bleeding forever. They're not cells, but just fragments of cells. They also don't have nucleus since they're not complete cells.

In E. coli, there is a mutation in a gene called dnaB that alters the helicase that normally acts at the origin of replication.

kvasek [131]

Answer:

When helicase mutations occur, problems in DNA replication are found. The helicases are proteins that open the 2 strands of DNA to initiate the duplication, they are responsible for breaking the hydrogen bonds between the two DNA chains, thus separating the chains, also they have the function of repairing DNA mutations, if there is mutation in the gene that encodes them, various functions will be absent in the cell.
