Answer:

D. The native snail species will compete for resources with the invasive species and destabilize the ecosystem ​

Explanation:

In Ecology, an invasive species refers to a species of organism that is foreign i.e. non-native to a particular habitat or environment. They are characterized by the ability to proliferate in growth and compete for space and nutrients with the native species in the habitat they are introduced to.

In this case, the giant african land snail, which is an invasive species, if introduced into a stable ecosystem will compete for resources with the native species of that ecosystem leading to the destabilization of the ecosystem.

How does an r group determine if an amino acid is acidic basic or nonpolar?
Alinara [238K]
<span>R group (or side chain) is an organic component of amino acids that is unique to each amino acid. </span> <span>Three of the amino acids have basic side chains at neutral pH: arginine (Arg), lysine (Lys), and histidine (His). Their side chains contain nitrogen and resemble ammonia, which is a base and their pKa's are high enough that they tend to bind protons, (positive charge). Aspartic acid or aspartate (Asp) and glutamic acid or glutamate (Glu) are acidic amino acids because their side chains have carboxylic acid groups whose pKa's are low enough to lose protons, (negatively charged). The non-polar amino acids contain uncharged functional groups<span> at physiological pH and are incapable of participating in hydrogen bonding. </span></span>

Assume that the mutation rate for a given gene is 1 × 10−6 mutations per generation. For that gene, how many mutations would be
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

500

Explanation:

Mutation rate is largely known as changes that occur in the frequency of a particular gene over an extended period of time

So given that;

the  mutation rate of a particular gene = 1 × 10⁻⁶

The expected mutations after 500 million sperm are examined will be:

= (1 × 10⁻⁶)×(500,000,000)

= 500

Thus, The expected mutations  = 500
