Given Proposition: The Shark Population has increased. This is assuming that we only base it off of the given food tree, rather than using the food web, which is more factually correct. This means that the sharks in the area can only eat sea otters, and that sea star populations and sea otters can only eat clams.

1) In this case, the shark population increases. This generally means that the sea otter population by itself has increased, suggesting a positive net change within the given food chain. However, with increased shark populations, would mean a damage to the amount of sea otters in the area. This can create an underpopulation of sea otters, which, if sea stars were not a factor, can mean a increase of clam population.

However.

2) Sea stars are a part of the food chain given. Therefore, it can be suggested that while the sea otter population may stabilize and/or diminish, the sea star has no "predator". This means that with the decrease of the sea otter population, the sea star population may actually grow, as the competition for the same source diminishes. Again, with the demand taking over the need, the sea star population may fall once again due to overfeeding, and essentially starvation.

In essence:

Shark Population: Increased

Sea Otter Population: Decreases (is eaten)

Therefore, Clam Population is speculated to increase.

However, the Sea star population would thereby increase due to having more food.

A larger sea star population in which the clam population cannot sustain would collapse, leading to a fall.

Also, due to the smaller amounts of sea otters in the area, the shark population may also see to an decrease of population, as they die from starvation.

The sea otter population would then stabilize when the predatory amounts or less, and their competition collapses.

Of course, there will always be a "food web". Sea otters do not solely rely on clams, neither do sharks solely rely on otters.

If there is an increase in the shark population, then there will be a slight decrease in the other populations.
Explanation:
Based upon the three animals listed, the shark is at the top of the food chain. This means that the shark will eat the sea otter and see star, declaring their population will decrease.

miv72 [106K]

The correct statement is that the concentration of acetylcholine will be inhibited by enzymes and can cause several diseases as follows:

  • Alzheimer's disease-related to damage to brain cells,
  • memory loss,
  • and thinking ability.

How to reduce the symptoms of these diseases is to use drugs that contain cholinesterase inhibitors.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2>

Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that plays an important role in the functioning of the autonomic nervous system. Acetylcholine is one of the most commonly recognized neurotransmitters or nerve stimulating chemicals. These neurotransmitter compounds can be found in the nervous system.

There are several side effects of the acetylcholine drug, which are as follows:

  • Can cause a lot of sweat
  • Excessive salivation
  • Stomach ache
  • Headache
  • Blood vessel dilation
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Diarrhea is a sign of an increase in parasympathetic tone.

Hi,

I think that you're missing some options, but here they are (let me know if I'm right!

-A population of wolves was introduced
-The amount of disease in the deer population decreased
-More grass was planted

Now, if the gene diversity decreased, it means that a lot of deer died. This could happen because wolves were introduced -this is the correct answer, and the wolves ate some deer.
