Consider the rabbit pairs that illustrate the pattern in the Fibonacci sequence. These rabbits produce exactly 1 pair of new rab

bits after reaching maturity at age 2 months. Imagine that the rabbits and all their offspring live forever. Also, imagine the field the rabbits live in can expand in size so that its side length is exactly equal to the number of pairs of rabbits living in the field. What is the side length of the field at the end of two years

Answer:46368

Explanation:

Start with two non-negative integers, f(0) and f(1). Compute f(2) = f(0) + f(1). Compute f(3) = f(1) + f(2).

Continue, creating f(n) = f(n-1) + f(n-2), where each new number is the sum of the prior two numbers in the sequence.

By convention, f(0) = 0. f(1) = 1 for our new first pair. f(2) = 1 as well, as conception just occurred. The new pair is born at the end of month 2, so during month 3, f(3) = 2. Only the initial pair produces offspring in month 3, so f(4) = 3. In month 4, the initial pair and the month 2 pair breed, so f(5) = 5. At the end of a year, Fibonacci has 144 pairs of rabbits.

1st month=1

2nd month = 1

3rd month= 1+1=2

4th month=2+1=3

5th month= 3+2=5

6th month =5+3 =8

7th month= 8+5 =13

8th month = 13+8 =21

9th month =21+13 =34

10th month= 34+21 =55

11th month =55+34=89

12th month=89+55=144

13th month =144+89=233

14th month= 233+144= 377

15th month=377+233= 610

16th month = 610+377=987

17th month =987+610 =1597

18th month =1597+987 =2584

19th Month =2584+1597= 4181

20th month =4281 + 1597= 6765

21st month =6765+ 4181= 10946

22nd month= 6765+10946= 17711

23rd month= 17711+ 10946= 28657

24th month = 28657+ 17711= 46368

Therefore side length of the field at the end of 2 years is 46368

Water would move out of the cells of the microorganisms by osmosis and the cytoplasm would become dehydrated, killing the cells.
The brine is a hypertonic solution, thereby "pulling" the water out of the bacterial cells.

Explain how biodiversity contributes to maintaining different life form on earth ​
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Biodiversity boosts ecosystem productivity where each species, no matter how small, all have an important role to play. For example, A larger number of plant species means a greater variety of crops. Greater species diversity ensures natural sustainability for all life forms. It keeps the "balance" in nature.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

When the required direction of transport is opposed to concentration levels, a cell <u>will </u> expend energy to force<u> ions</u> across its membrane.

Explanation:

If the concentration gradient is opposite to the direction of transport of minerals, then the cell will use energy to transport mineral ions from a lower concentration to a higher concentration. The most common process through which this happens is termed as the active transport.

The process of active transport is opposite to passive transport. In passive transport, molecules move from a higher concentration to a lower concentration.

a classmate states that mitochondria and chloroplasts descended from the same type of bacteria. Does the evidence support this?
tia_tia [17]
The endosymbiotic theory explains that mitochondria and chloroplasts descended from the same type of bacteria. Symbiosis is an interaction between two organisms of different species, and <u>endo</u>symbiosis is a type of symbiosis in which one organism lives <u>inside </u>the other one. According to the endosymbiotic theory, a host cell ingested symbiotic bacteria, which specialized into mitochondria or chloroplasts. The evidence for this theory is that mitochondria and chloroplasts, like bacteria, have their own circular DNA. They also have their own transcriptional and translational machinery.
