Answer:

It will remain relatively stable

Explanation:

<u>The carrying capacity (k) of an environment is a factor that represents the maximum number of organisms of a particular species such environment can support based on the resources it has. </u>

<em>Below the carrying capacity</em>, the population of a species still has the potential to increase due to resource availability, and <em>above the carrying capacity</em>, the population has the potential to reduce due to the overstretching of the available resources. Factors that keep the population from expanding significantly beyond the carrying capacity include competition for resources, natural disasters, disease outbreaks, etc.

<em>Hence, if a population is steady at its carrying capacity and a group of organisms from that species moves into the same space occupied by the original population, the carrying capacity will only increase temporarily before factors such as competition and natural disasters operate to bring the carrying capacity to the normal level. </em>

Identify and explain three major issues that cut across psychology
oee [108]
The three major issues that cut across psychology are stability versus change, rationality versus irrationality and nature-nurture issue.
Stability versus change deals with the issue of whether human beings change as they grow older or they remain essentially the same.
Rational versus irrationality illustrates the disparity between a human's mind ability to perceive and interpret correctly or incorrectly.
Nature - nurture issue centered on the relative contribution of genetic inheritance and environmental factors to human development.

DNA is found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells and the ribosomes, the location where proteins are made, are found out in the cy
Reika [66]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>The DNA of eukaryotic organisms being present in the nucleus while the protein-synthesizing organelle, the ribosome being present in the cytoplasm poses a spatial problem. It means that transcribed DNAs (messenger RNA) in the nucleus would have to somehow be transported to the ribosome in order for the cell to successfully synthesize proteins.</em>

The problem of transporting the messenger RNA is solved by two features of the cell:

  • The presence of pores in the nuclear envelop
  • The presence of transport proteins in the nucleus

<u>The mRNA binds to the transport proteins to form mRNA-protein complexes and is transported through the nuclear pores, often with the assistance of ATP. </u>
