Answer:

a. 1/2 b. The organism is an animal

Explanation:

a. What is the medullary index for an organism that has a medulla width of 2cm and hair shaft width 4cm?

Medullary index = diameter of medulla/diameter of hair.

Given that diameter of medulla = medulla width = 2cm and diameter of hair = hair shaft width = 4cm,

Medullary index = diameter of medulla/diameter of hair = 2 cm/4cm = 1/2

b. Is this organism human or animal?

Since the medullary index = 1/2 > 1/3 (if it is ≤ 1/3 it is human hair and ≥ 1/2 it is animal hair), it is animal hair. So, the organism is an animal.

vodomira [7]

Answer:

Decrease population of staghorn coral and spotlight parrot fish.

Explanation:

Humans greatly affects biodiversity by decreasing the population of most of the organisms due to its activities. Human activities causes pollution in the environment as well as disturbed the habitats of many organisms that leads to  decrease in their population. Humans activities releases carbondioxide gas in large concentration that will leads to the increase of pH of the ocean water which adversely affected the population of many marine animals such as staghorn coral and spotlight parrot fish etc so that's why we can say that human activities adversely affected biodiversity.
