The group of the options are given below:

Individuals of population X are predators

Individuals of population X are prey

Individuals of population Y caught and spread a disease.

Individuals of population Y lost their shelters after a flood

Answer:

The correct answer would be -  Individuals of population X are predators.

Explanation:

The limiting factor is a factor that prevents or slow the growth of the population. In this case the population an increase of a population results in the decrease in the other population directly.

Increase in the population X results directly in the dcrease of the decrease of population Y. Such relation of the two variables in apopulation growth occurs when there is predator- prey relatioship among two organism or population. Increase in the population of predator result in decrese of the population of prey.

Which of the following is NOT a function of Sertoli cells?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

The correct answer is option - d. Production of primary spermatocytes.

Explanation:

The accessory cells or supporting cells present within the seminiferous tubules of reproductive system termed as the Sertoli cells. They play various roles in the body and reproductive system.

Sertoli cells make blood-testis barrier in adjacent Sertoli cells in the seminiferous tubules. These cells secrete different types of enzymes and hormones such as inhibin which are also secreted by ovary and placenta in females. Sertoli cells produce seminiferous tubular fluid to provide nutrition to the sperm. Apoptotic germ cells are timely eliminated by these cells.

Thus, the correct answer is option D. Production of primary spermatocytes.

If a man and a woman, each with sickle-cell trait, were planning to marry, what information could you provide them regarding the
kiruha [24]

Answer:

I'll inform them that the possibility of all their future children/offspring being phenotypically sickle-celled is very high.

Explanation:

Sickle cell is an inherited disease condition in which the red blood cells of the blood loses its shape and hence, dies or gets broken down. It has to do with the blood genotype of an individual. There are three major types of blood genotypes in humans namely: AA, AS, and SS. SS is the recessive genotype that codes for the sickle cell trait.

Hence, a human with the sickle cell trait has a genotype- SS. Therefore, according to this question, a man and a woman, each with sickle-cell trait (SS), were planning to marry, This will mean that both the man and the woman will always produce a gamete with S allele, which will combine to form an SS offspring. In other words, all of the offsprings of this man and woman will be sickle-celled.

Consider the data on cliff swallow mortality. Why is this an example of directional selection?Overall genetic variation decrease
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

The average trait value changed in one direction.(In this case, larger size)

Explanation:

In evolution a natural selection can be disruptive, directional or stabilizing

In stabilizing no extreme trait is favored hence provides intermediate values .

Disruptive selection both extreme traits are favored over the intermediate trait.

Directional, the enviroment will favor the survival of one trait hence a change in direction either towards the left or the right.

In the case of swallow cliff mortality, selection favored the larger size.
