Type II survivorship curves Your answer: are characteristic of humans and elephants. typify a population in which all ages have

an equal chance of survival. indicate a high mortality rate in the very young. show that very few young are produced, that each is given parental support, and that most individuals live a long life and die of old age. are typical of annual plants

Answer:

b. typify a population in which all ages have an equal chance of surviving. → YES

e. are typical of annual plants → YES

Explanation:

Different species have survival curves differently shaped. In general terms, there are three different survival curves.

  • Type I. Mortality often occurs at the end of the cycle, representing species with low mortality. Organisms exhibiting this type of survivorship curve have long cycles of life and high probabilities to survive until they are old enough. These species have few descendants and spend too much time and energy in parental care to ensure their reproductive success.
  • Type II. The probabilities of dying are equals all along the cycle, at any age interval. The number of dead individuals remains constant from the beginning to the end of the life cycle. These species have reduced offsprings, and they ensure their reproductive success by providing some significant parental care.
  • Type III. Significant mortality during the early stages of life. Only a few individuals reach the later life stages, getting to survive their first period of life. Survivors usually have a long life. These species produce big offsprings at the same time, but they provide little or no parental care. Their reproductive success relies on the number of descendants.

Type II survivorship curves:

a. are characteristic of humans and elephants → No, this is Type I curve

b. typify a population in which all ages have an equal chance of surviving. → YES

c. indicate a high mortality rate in the very young. → No, this is Type III curve

d. show that very few young are produced, that each is given parental support, and that most  individuals live a relatively long life and die of old age. → No, this is Type I curve

e. are typical of annual plants → YES

Sympathetic nervous system vs parasympathetic nervous system
AveGali [126]

Answer:

Differences between Sympathetic and Parasympathetic

1. Anatomical: The location of preganglionic neurons of the autonomic ganglia and the extension of preganglionic and postganglionic fibers are different in these two systems;

2. Pharmacological: In the Sympathetic system we have the presence of Cholinergic fibers (Ach) and in the Parasympathetic system we have the presence of Noradrenergic fibers (NE);  

3. Physiological: They act antagonistically, they rarely work harmoniously synergistically in coordinating visceral activity (balance)

3.Why should a model of the carbon cycle include the burning of fossil fuels?(1 point)
user100 [1]

Answer:

Burning fossil fuels moves carbon from the geosphere to the atmosphere.

Explanation:

  • Fossil fuels such as coal, petroleum and natural gas are produced and stored in the geosphere. i.e. the part of the Earth that includes the Earth's interior, landforms, rocks and minerals.
  • Fossil fuels, extracted from the geosphere are burned to generate energy.
  • Combustion of fossil fuels releases the stored carbon into the atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide.

If a diploid cell has 20 chromosomes, how many sister chromatids will be present
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

92 chromatids

Explanation:

During phosphate, the nuclear envelope of the cell (which is where the 92 chromatids are contained) begins to break down. The centrioles, which are the only present in animal cells, separate and each moves to an opposite end of the cell
