Answer:

For our bodies the conversion from food energy to ATP happens in mitochondria. If your mitochondria are not working properly then you are less able to convert food into ATP. For cells that require a lot of ATP, for example your muscles, this is a problem and they may become weaker and get tired faster.

sertanlavr [38]

As the individual body size of an organism increases, the population density for this organism in a given habitat tends to decrease.

<span>It has been shown that an inverse relationship between the size of an animal and its local abundance exist. Animals with larger body size have higher energetic requirements, resource exploitation, and susceptibility to predation and thus the competition is bigger. Yet, the density–body size relation depends on the physical complexity of the habitat and population of a species.</span>

Which curve shows the course of the reaction in the presence of an enzyme--the black curve or the red curve? Which line represen

nikklg [1K]

I found the attached image on the internet and it really helps complete this exercise.

First question:
In the presence of an enzyme, the course of the reaction is shown by the red curve. The necessary energy to make a reaction occur is less when there is an enzyme to help the reaction happen. Enzymes work as catalysts that act over substrates converting them into different molecules in a much accelerated way then it would happen without the enzyme's help, if it would happen at all.

Second question:
The activation energy is represented by line B. The activation energy is the energy needed to be available for a reaction to happen. If we compare it with line A, which represents the activation energy necessary for a reaction without an enzyme, we can see how much less energy is necessary to dispend when an enzyme is part of the reaction. Line C represents the energy resultant from the reaction.

Some animals in grasslands can obtain water they need from plants.

Sati [7]

The statement given in this question is TRUE; Some animals in grassland can obtain the water they need from plants.

Grassland is a biome that is characterized by wide range of temperature and uniform distribution of rainfall all through the year. The major plants found in the biome are grasses and herbs. The soil in the biome is not fertile enough for trees to survive there. Different animals can be found in the biome and some of the animals has drought resistance capacity. Some of these animals obtain their water requirement from the grasses, which they consume.

sdas [7]

Answer:

The correct answers are "The population of birds with large beaks will increase on the island" and "The trait for large beaks will be passed on to future generations through natural selection".

Explanation:

Natural selection functions under the premise of survival of the fittest, where stressful situations such as lack of resources will select the organisms with advantageous traits. In this case, the decrease on seeds affected particularly the numbers of small, soft seeds over large, hard seeds. This stressful situation will select the finches with the advantageous trait of having large beaks, because they are able to feed from large, hard seeds. This trait will be passed on to future generations through natural selection, which eventually will result in the population of birds with large beaks will increase on the island.
