Is the biological domain Animalia autotrophic or heterotrophic
KIM [24]

Biological domain Animalia is <u>heterotrophic</u>

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Animalia kingdom follows the heterotrophic  mode of nutrition which means it depends on other organisms for their nutrition while autotrophs produce their own food. Carbon is the main source of energy. The heterotrophs get carbon from consuming these organic resources.

The cells are eukaryotic and they are multicellular organisms.They do not have a cell-wall. They intake large molecules and using their different organ system break down the food into simpler substances which provides nutrition and energy for the organism to survive.

Explain how natural selection could lead to a change in allele frequency leading to a change in the color of the frogs.
Pie

Answer:

Due to increasing the survival.

Explanation:

The natural selection causes a change in allele frequency leading to a change in the color of the frogs because the colour of the frog helps it in hiding from predators. The population of that frog specie increases which has the ability to hide from the predators in that environment while on the other hand, the population of frog decreases which can easily be seen by the predator due to its colour so this change in allele frequency will leads to natural selection.

Delvig [45]
The answer to this question would be: <span>Compensatory phase


In this question, the patient is having difficulty in breathing, altered level of consciousness, increased heart rate, and increased respiratory rate. In the compensatory phase of shock, the body will try to compensate the loss of fluid by increasing their function temporarily. This was done by increasing heart rate so the blood delivered into the body could be increased.
If the patient doesn't get any treatment, the organ will be tired after a while and then the patient condition will be progressively declined into the progressive phase.</span>

Lynna [10]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

A. bioremediation

B. mutualism

C. quorum sensing

D. quorum settling

E. mass-settling

Answer:

C. quorum sensing

Explanation:

Quorum sensing is the gene regulation mechanism used by the bacteria to communicate with the other bacteria.  The quorum sensing process depends on the number of bacterial cells or the density of the cells.

When the bacterial number increase in number then the bacterial cells send the signal to the nearby cells and and regulates the expression of the gene.  In the given question, the same chemical signal process depends on the density of the cell and thus quorum sensing is correct.
