The possible answers are 
<span>A.a drought reduces the toad population </span>
<span>B. an influx of soil nutrients results in increased grass growth </span>
C.a hawk species moves in that hunts toads
<span>D.the toad population increases after a warm, wet spring

The correct answer is D

The increase in numbers in the toad population after a warm and wet spring would mean that there are more toads that prey on the beetles and that they are limiting the beetle population by hunting them.</span>

Two protein kinases, K1 and K2, function sequentially in an intracellular signaling pathway. If either kinase contains a mutatio
Korolek [52]

Answer:

The order must be K2→K1, since the permanently active K1 allele (K1a) is able to propagate the signal onward even when its upstream activator K2 is inactive (K2i). The reverse order would have resulted in a failure to signal (K1a→K2i), since the permanently active K1a kinase would be attempting to activate a dead K2i kinase.

Explanation:

  • You characterize a double mutant cell that contains K2 with type I mutation and K1 with type II mutation.
  • You observe that the response is seen even when no extracellular signal is provided.
  • In the normal pathway, i f K1 activat es K2, we expect t his combinat ion of two m utants to show no  response with or without ext racell ular signal. This is because no matt er how active K1 i s, it would be unable to  act ivate a mutant K2 that i s an activit y defi cient. If we reverse the order, K2 activating K1, the above  observati on is valid. Therefore, in the normal signaling pathway, K2 activates K1.

Are viruses living organisms
viva [34]

Answer:

No. Viruses are not living organisms.

Explanation:

Viruses are not living things. Viruses are complicated assemblies of molecules, including proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates, but on their own they can do nothing until they enter a living cell. Without cells, viruses would not be able to multiply. Therefore, viruses are not living things.

Arrange the sentences in order to describe how oxygen from air is transported to the cells in the kidneys.
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

The pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood to the heart. Air enters the bronchioles in the lungs and reaches the alveoli. The capillaries join together to reach the arteries, transferring the oxygen. The oxygen-rich blood moves from the aorta and reaches the kidneys through a series of blood vessels.
