Compare a natural meadow with a cornfield in terms of biodiversity. in your answer, be sure to address the: • number of species

that live in each habitat; • number of interactions among species that occur in each habitat; • relative ability of each habitat to survive a natural disaster that might occur

In a cornfield, only one plant species has dominated the area, that is the corn plant. While in a natural meadow, multiple species of plants occurs of different species. The presence of the different types of plants in the meadow will interact more number of insects in it as compared to the corn field. This will lead to more interactions among the different species in a natural meadow. The greater biodiversity of the natural meadow than the cornfield will support it better.

In case of any natural disaster, or a pest attack, all the plants will be killed in a corn field and so will the insects dependent on them, but in a natural meadow, if one plant species is killed by a natural disaster, other will still be alive. Hence, the ability to survive is greater in natural meadow.

k0ka [10]

Answer:

The whole body works together, as a “team.”If one of the parts of the body won’t work together as a team, everything will get messed up. The stomach muscles churn and mix the food with digestive juices that have acids and enzymes, breaking it into much smaller, digestible pieces. An acidic environment is needed for the digestion that takes place in the stomach.

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The intercalated cells in the distal convoluted tubule of a nephron can cause and increase or decrease in body pH.

Explanation:

The renal collecting duct is the nephron segment where the final urine content of acid equivalents and inorganic ions are determined.

Two types of cells regulate the acid-base and volume homeostasis.

Intercalated cells, which express acid-base transporters and vacuolar H+-ATPase, maintain an apropriate acid-base balance and principal cells that express the epithelial sodium channel ENaC and aquaporin 2, regulate electrolyte reabsorption.

Filtered bicarbonate is predominantly reabsorbed from the proximal convoluted tubule about 80% and the remaining bicarbonate is reabsorbed from the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle, the distal nephron, specifically the distal convoluted tubule & the connecting tubule, and finally the cortical and both the outer and inner medullary collecting duct.

Intercalated cells are enriched in mitochondria, and express proteins involved in transport of proton equivalents such as vacuolar H+-ATPase, carbonic anhydrase II and bicarbonate transporters. There are two types of intercalated cells Type-A and Type-B.

A major theme in biology is the relationship between structure and function. Describe how the structures of chloroplasts and mit
Flura [38]
The structures of chloroplast and mitochondria are similar. Both organelles consist of a smooth outer membrane, folded inner membrane (in chloroplasts called lamellae, in mitochondria called cristae), and fluid intracellular space (in chloroplast called stroma, in mitochondria called matrix). Only these structures allow those organelles to perform their function. The presence of folded inner membranes enables a formation of compartments inside the organelles. Differences in concentrations of hydrogen ions in those compartments are important for photosynthesis in chloroplasts and cellular respiration in mitochondria.
