A crop is treated with a pesticide and 98% of the insects are killed. what will most likely happen to the remaining insects?
Marina CMI [18]

The 2% of the insects will begin to reproduce and grow their population exponentially and in time enable the population to recover. This is if the population is large enough to enable random mating. The 98% reduction in population drastically reduces competition for the remaining individuals hence giving them abundant resources for them to thrive.

Which statement describes Redi's experiment, which helped disprove spontaneous generation?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

He examined covered and uncovered meat to determine that maggots came from eggs.

Explanation:

Prior to Redi's experiment and other supporting experiments, it was formerly believed that life could emanate from non-living things, for example, the generation of maggots from rotting meat.

In 1668, a scientist called Francesco Redi disproved the idea of spontaneous generation. He did this when he experimented that the maggots from meats are only as a result of eggs laid by flies when they perched on the meat.

He placed the meat in two jars; an uncovered jar and another in a covered jar with a cloth, after several days, the uncovered jar had maggots on the meat, while the covered jar had no maggot on the meat, but on the cloth. With this experiment, he was able to demonstrate that the maggot arose from the eggs of the flies, not the meat itself which is nonliving and hence, disproved the idea of spontaneous generation.

How are the two location different in regards to food/drink religion, customs etc?
Natali [406]
<span>Two locations can differ in their food, religion, customers, based on their heritage. Much of the time, the history of a nation often determines where it stands today. Examples include Great Britain. A nation that always had a singular ruler and even in today's age, there is a King and Queen, something that is not often seen among other nations.</span>
