Answer:
coatis would increase
sloths would increase
fruit bats would increase
Explanation:
The boa constrictor in this food chain is the top predator, thus it is on the top of the food chain. It preys on several of the animals on this list, such as the coati, sloth, and fruit bats, so it is regulating their numbers. If the boa constrictor is removed from the ecosystem, the ecosystem will lose its predator, so the animals on which the boa constrictor preyed upon will have no threat, thus will experience rapid increase in their numbers. The coatis, sloths, and fruit bats, all will be predator free in this scenario, so they will all experience increase in their population, which in turn will have big effect on all other species in the ecosystem.
C)temperature and rainfall
Explanation:
Temperature and rainfall are the most important physical factors that shapes the characteristics of an ecosystem.
Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of a place. It is mostly as a result of the solar radiation it receives.
Rainfall is a form of precipitation in which water falls under gravity in liquid form.
They are both by far the most important factors that shapes ecosystems.

Answer:
Botulism toxin disrupts motor control <u>by blocking the release of acetylcholine by motor neurons. </u>
Explanation:
Acetylcholine is the principal neurotransmitter in motor neurons. If there is no release of acetylcholine from the presynaptic motor neuron, the ion channels will not open. If the ion channels do not open, Na+ cannot enter the postsynaptic membrane to start an action potential. As a result, the muscle can not move.
The ion channels have a specif receptor for acetylcholine. When acetylcholine binds to the receptors, the channels open. With the ion channels open, Na+ can enter the postsynaptic membrane to start an action potential. This does not happen in the presence of botulism toxin since it blocks the release of acetylcholine.
Answer:
Explanation:
Nucleotides are building blocks of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). A nucleic acid contains a chain of nucleotides linked together with covalent bonds to form a sugar-phosphate backbone with protruding nitrogenous bases. For example, DNA contains two such chains spiraling round each other in the famous double helix shape.
