You suggest using a logistic growth model instead. Your colleague agrees, and recommends harvesting the bass population down to

just under carrying capacity. Their argument is that the population will remain large and population growth will be fastest if it is harvested down to this size. A) Why is this argument incorrect
Biology

Ivan3 years ago
8 0

Answer and Explanation:

The error of this argument is to state that a population will remain large and increase when it is close to the carrying capacity. This is because the carrying capacity is the term that determines that a population of living beings is living in an environment that has the minimum resources for their survival, because that population has already consumed the resources. In this case, when a bass population comes close to carrying capacity, the amount of environmental resources is starting to become scarce or limited, this will cause a decrease in the size of the population, because many members of the population will not have access to the necessary resources and will die, decreasing the population. In addition, reproduction among members of the population will be reduced, which will prevent the population from remaining large, since the mortality rate will be higher than the birth rate.

It’s competition I think since they were both against each other to gain energy for themselves and it caused the other species to die out so the gaining species can have more.

What type of fertilization requires a great excess of egg and sperm gametes because most are wasted?
vivado [14]
<span>b.internal fertilization

</span>Sexual reproduction provides genetic variation because the sperm and egg that are produced contain different combinations of genes than the parent organism.  Sexual reproduction involves meiosis which is the process of a cell doubling its DNA, shuffling its genes and then dividing the shuffled DNA among four cells.<span>Each resulting cell, or gamete from meiosis has only half the amount of DNA as the parent cell. So in order to form a new organism, two gametes, sperm and egg, must fuse, further mixing the genes to produce more genetic variation.</span>

Aminolevulinate dehydratase (ALAD ) is an enzyme that relies on zinc as a coenzyme. A zinc ion binds to the ALAD active site, wh
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

The correct option is C. It changes the three-dimensional structure of the active site so that ALAD is no longer compatible with its substrate.

Explanation:

Co-factors are molecules that are required by an enzyme to perform its function of catalysis. If a wrong co-factor binds to the enzyme then it will change the three-dimensional structure of the enzyme and the substrate will no longer fit into the enzyme. Hence, Option C is the best choice that explains the inhibition of ALAD.

Other options are false because :

Option A: The wrong co factor will not affect the substrate nor will it make it compatible for ALAD's active site.

Option B:  The wrong factor doesn't change the amino acid sequence of the protein or enzyme, rather it changes the three dimensional structure of the enzyme.

Option D : The wrong co factor won't allow the reaction to proceed at a faster rate, rather it will inhibit the reaction.
