The bones of your arms are called humerus, while your forearms are composed of two bones, the radius and ulna. The bones of your fingers are called metacarpals and each one of those small bones are called phalanges.
The bones of your shoulders are composed of the clavicle, the bony part seen just right under the neck. Part of the shoulder area is the scapula, which is located at the back part of the body attached to the upper part of the ribs. They are the triangle-shaped bones you feel when you cross your arms at the back.
The bones of your thighs are called femur, they are the largest bones in your body. While the bones of your legs are called tibia and fibula. The bones of your toes are called tarsals and each are composed of smaller bones called metatarsals. Your heels also have bones and they are called calcaneus.
The bones of your pelvis are called Coxal bones as a whole but they are composed of the illium (biggest part of your hips); the pubic bone, located along the reproductive organ; the sacrum and coccyx all located at the base of the spine.
Answer:
- production of vaccine for disease prevention
- production of genetically modified crops
Explanation:
Recombinant DNA is a special type of DNA that has been infused with a foreign gene of particular interest.
With recombinant DNA technology, scientists can study different proteins and see how they can be used for therapy in the area of medicine. <em>The technology has been used to produce several vaccine in the prevention of diseases.</em>
In addition, recombinant DNA technology has been useful in agriculture to produce <em>genetically modified crops with desired traits such as resistance to pests/diseases and high yields.</em>
Answer:
D. Specialist Species
<h2>
What is the advantage for species to be specialists, and how can they survive in the presence of opportunistic/generalist species?</h2>
In the setting of specialized habitats or unique situations, specialized species exist. When those conditions and surroundings change, they must adapt or go extinct, thus they must survive while they still exist.
When compared to generalists, they have the benefit of efficiency, which increases the likelihood of survival and, hence, reproduction within certain settings or situations. The generalists, on the other hand, have the benefit of being able to survive in a larger variety of circumstances and have a higher probability of doing so.
Cactuses, which are plants adapted to dry environments, are an example of specialization. More generalist plant species would typically outcompete cacti in most habitats on Earth, but very few of such species could endure the harsh conditions of a desert.
Extreme environmental conditions, competition for limited resources, and "evolutionary arms races" are some of the pressures that cause specialization. Cheetahs sprint quickly both because their prey moves quickly and because quicker cheetahs will be more effective hunters and more likely to procreate. The advantage of specialization is clear when seen from the standpoint of catching the next meal on a daily basis.
My key argument is that specialization's benefits must always be viewed in the context of the environment that generated the selective pressure that resulted in specialization. Although experts are specialists because they must be, their specializations put them in danger.
The populations with the trophic levels that receive the least amount of the total energy from the grass would be Hognose snakes and owls.
<h3>Trophic Level</h3>
The higher we move up a trophic level, the lower the amount of energy transferred from the previous levels.
More precisely put, only about 10% of the total energy available at one trophic level is transferred to the next while the rest is lost as heat to the surrounding.
In this case, Hognose snakes and owls represent the two highest trophic levels in the ecosystem. Thus, their populations would receive the lowest amount of energy from the producer, the grass.
