Answer:

The top Predators

Explanation: The top predators are the least numerous organisms to maintain the population of the other organisms. If the top predators were the most numerous than the species in the forest would go extinct because they would eat all of the organisms lower on the food chain and would therefore starve to death. The top predators maintain the population of the forest by eating the lower organisms so that the amount of plant life will not go extinct.

It follows that the carnivores (secondary consumers) that feed on herbivores and detritivores and those that eat other carnivores (tertiary consumers) have the lowest amount of energy available to them.

Reproductive isolating mechanisms are divided into categories based on when they act. _____ isolating factors prevent fertilizat
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer: (B) Pre-zygotic; post-zygotic.

Explanation:

Prezygotic isolation occurs before fertilization of eggs. It occurs between the two sex gametes and deter sexual reproduction between different species.

However, individuals are considered to be diverge on the phylogeny tree and different species, when they cannot reproduce.

Mechanisms of prezygotic isolation include habitat isolation, gamete isolation, mechanical isolation, behavioral isolation, and mating seasons.

Whereas, postzygotic isolation prevents the formation of fertile offspring. This phenomenon leads to production of an hybrid offspring from different species and this is a form of speciation in nature.

Mechanisms of postzygotic isolation include hybrid inviability, hybrid breakdown, and hybrid sterility.

LD50 is used to express _____.
dlinn [17]
LD50 is used to express TOXICITY OF TOXINS AND POISONS.
LD50 stands for Lethal Dose 50. This is the standard measure of the toxicity of a material, which will kill half of the sample population of a particular test animal in a defined time period, when they are exposed to the material.

What specific event triggers the uncovering of the myosin binding site on actin?
Bess [88]
Striated muscles contain repeating sarcomeres of overlapping arrays of long, thin actin and thicker myosin filaments. Myosin filaments contains the myosin heads, which are enzymes that can bind to actin, split and make use of the energy from ATP. When muscle contraction starts, myosin heads bind to actin, change their configuration on actin, liberating the products of ATP hydrolysis and causing slide of the actin and myosin filaments. The action of the proteins troponin and  tropomyosin on the actin filaments regulates vertebrae striated muscle contraction. The release of calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum is triggered by the nervous stimulation which causes depolarization of muscle membrane. Calcium ions bind to troponin and thus cause or allow the tropomyosin strands on the actin filament to move so that the part of the actin surface where myosin heads need to bind is uncovered. Contraction then occurs and only stops when the sarcoplasmic reticulum pumps calcium out of the muscle interior.

So basically, what triggers the uncovering of the myosin binding site on actin is the calcium ions binding to troponin and changing configuration.
