Mortality, or death rate is a measure of the number of deaths in a particular population, scaled to the size of that population, per unit of the time. In this case a factor that would result to an increased mortality rate in a population due to increased competition of water will be the density-dependent factor.

Explanation:
A stimulus is something that provokes a response or reaction in a living organism. It can either be internal or external. An animal can respond to stimulus such as hunger, heat, predator etc.
However, among all the listed stimuli in the options, the PRESENCE OF A PREDATOR is most likely to result in a more rapid heartbeat in an animal. This is because the predator stimulus will require the animal to respond by running in order to survive. Running will increase its metabolic activity and cause its heartbeat to increase.

The first diagram is the alpha helix, which is a spiral shape.

Answer:
Spore
Explanation:
Most of the fungal species reproduce through spores. Spores are the reproductive structures of fungi that help in the survival of fungal species under unfavorable conditions and their dispersal to new habitats. Fungal spores are very light in weight and are dispersed with wind currents.
For example, ascospores are the sexual spores produced by fungal species of the group ascomycetes and are carried with the wind.
