Answer:

A.

Explanation:

Dark coloured moths will be better camouflaged and so better protected from predators. More of them will survive and reproduce, increasing the frequency of dark coloured genes.

Light coloured gene will provide less camouflage, those moths will be caught by predators more often and live to reproduce less. So the light coloured gene will decrease.

Identify the substances that can readily pass through the inner mitochondrial membrane.
KIM [24]

Answer:

A,C E

Explanation:

The inner membrane of the mitochondria separate the matrix of the mitochondria from the cytosol(inner membrane space.). It is invaginated  folded inwards  to form the critae. This is an adaptive feature to increase the surface area for biochemical reaction in the mitochondria.

The invagination gives two compartments the inner mitochondria also creates the outer intermembrane space and the inner matrix

These are the substances that can pass freely the inner membrane of the mitochondria.Pyruvate and H+ can not pass through.Specifically,it is not preamble to H+ because, hydrogen ions are needed to generate the electrochemical gradients needed for the chemical energy  for phosphorylation of ADP by  P to form ATPs by the enzyme ATPase synthase.If the inner membrane is permeable to H+ the electochemical gradient will not be produced, and therefore ATPs productions stops.

O2 needs to pass through the inner membrane because it it the final electron acceptor. Therefore if not allowed to pass through oxidative phosphorylation  and ETC will nor occur.

CO2 must pass through because its accumulation will increase the acidity of the inner  mitochondria

Why the rainforest in Costa Rica is not rich with plants? Remember to use scientific language
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Deforestation is the major problem causing lack of rich species in Costa Rica. This is due to over grazing by cattle.This may lead to flooding which affect fertility of the soil.These animals graze on  the plants without regulations,and cause erosion as their hoofs percolate the soil,  further reducing soil fertility.

In addition to sustain the beef production,  trees were fell to for cattle ranching.This ultimately contributed to loss of the forest species.

Banana plantation is an  additional factor.Forest were cleared to cultivate banana, which affects forest population.
