The population doesn’t grow(increase) anymore and the number of organisms stay at about that point(the carrying capacity).

Answer:

When the population reaches its carrying capacity, natural resources become scarce and the members of that population end up dying or moving to another location.

Explanation:

A population reaches its carrying capacity when the number of births is equal to the number of deaths and the environment in which this species lives is no longer able to support the number of members of that population.

As a result, natural resources end up becoming increasingly scarce and there is a very large competition for habitat. As a result, many members of this population end up dying or moving until the population is again able to be in balance with the environment in which they live.

How does salt maintain fluid levels inside your body?
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

These results show that the body regulates its salt and water balance not only by releasing excess sodium in urine, but by actively retaining or releasing water in urine. The advantage of this mechanism is that the long-term maintenance of body fluids isn't as dependent on external water sources as once believed.

What is required before a hypothesis advances to the status of a scientific theory ?
Vesna [10]
<span>The hypothesis has to survive all attacks on it and continue to provide the best known explanation of the known data. In the scientific method, there are several steps towards the creation of a hypothesis and eventually a theory.
 1. Gather data. 
 2. Construct a hypothesis that explains the data. This hypothesis should be capable of being disproved and should be capable of making predictions.
 3. Gather more data. DO NOT cherry pick only that data which supports the hypothesis . If data is uncovered that contradicts the hypothesis , revise or replace the hypothesis.
 4. After the hypothesis has survived all attacks on it and is the best known explanation of the data, then it becomes a theory.
 5. Note, data collection continues after the hypothesis became a theory and if new data is discovered that is in conflict with the theory, then the theory is modified, or discarded in favor of a new hypothesis or theory.</span>

padilas [110]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-Mullis was able to imagine the outcome of carrying out a different process.

Explanation:

The technique of replicating the DNA artificially or in-vitro is known as the polymerase chain reaction or PCR was discovered by the Kary Mullis.

He was working in a Cetus company on synthesizing oligonucleotides and the detection of point mutation. One day while driving with his partner he went into an intellectual leap and thought about the concept which led to the development of the polymerase chain reaction techniques.

This is an example of creativity in a sense that he was able to think the result of a technique to synthesize new DNA by using opposed primers and repetition of denaturation, annealing and polymerization process will help amplify the DNA.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
