The algae, walleye pollock, and orca populations could have all affected the moon jelly population. What additional
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

I'd need the data from the population sizes of the algae, walleye pollock, orca, ocean sunfish and sea turtles. And I'd also need water temperature data, levels of dissolved oxygen.

Explanation:

The jellyfish population may have increased because of an increase in phytoplankton. This leads to an increase in

zooplankton; a decrease in walleye pollock, leading to an increase in zooplankton; or an increase in orcas, leading to a

decrease in sea turtles. Sea turtles, being the main predator for keeping the jellyfish population in check.

Also, if there are more red algae, jellyfish polyps have less place to grow. Without it, the polyps can attach itself on every surface.

A. How do the Earth’s physical factors influence population density? When population growth increases in an area, what is happen
madreJ [45]

Question 1 The world's population is spread very unevenly. Some spaces are empty or very sparsely populated: we speak of human deserts:

• Cold polar environments are the least populated regions: the ground, frozen permanently, prevents any form of agriculture, the very low temperatures make the habitat difficult.

• The hot or cold desert environments are also not busy: the lack of rain and the strong heat during the day limit the activities of men. The only exceptions are oases.

• The role of relief is more difficult to define. High temperate mountains like the Alps are generally sparsely populated but tropical chains like the Andes have a high population density. However, men have generally settled in the plains, in the valleys (along with the rivers) and on the coasts.

There are also other factors unrelated to land factors that influence population density such as job availability, or even historical factors.

Question 2: Birth rate:

The birth rate (sometimes called the crude birth rate) is the ratio of the annual number of births to the average total population for that year. When the population grows, the contact between people will be more permanent, and it will increase the marriage rate, and thus the birth rate. Age structure:The age structure is a mode of graphical representation of the structure (of age as well as of sex) of a population which constitutes a synthetic image of the past, present and future of the population.When a population resides for a long time in the same place (in favorable conditions, not raising the death rate and without moving), this will vary the age structure by observing an increase in the elderly population.

Why do you think pressurized seeds and spores are a beneficial adaption for these plants and fungi?
Annette [7]

It is a beneficial adaptation since the pressurized seeds and spores spread widely, helping the organism reproduce elsewhere.   In plants, it allows them to survive better by flinging the seeds far away so that their offspring don’t compete for food. For the fungus, it allows the parent to fling the spores into the grass so that when other animals eat them, the life cycle of the fungus continues on.  These may be dispersed by the wind.

What will happen when the membrane and transporting substance meet?
horrorfan [7]
The structure of the lipid bilayer allows small, uncharged substances such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, and hydrophobic molecules such as lipids, to pass through the cell membrane, down their concentration gradient, by simple diffusion.
