Answer:
b) a graphical representation of the relationship between hemoglobin's percent saturation and the partial pressure of oxygen
Explanation:
On vertical axis-hemoglobin's oxygen saturation
On horizontal axis-oxygen partial pressure
This curve determines hemoglobin affinity for oxygen. If hemoglobin has high oxygen saturation, hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen is high.
As the blood moves through the systemic capillary, hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen decreases, so that oxygen can be released into the cells.
Answer:
ExplanatThe geometric or exponential growth of all populations is eventually curtailed by food availability, competition for other resources, predation, disease, or some other ecological factor. If growth is limited by resources such as food, the exponential growth of the population begins to slow as competition for those resources increases. The growth of the population eventually slows nearly to zero as the population reaches the carrying capacity (K) for the environment. The result is an S-shaped curve of population growth known as the logistic curve. It is determined by the equation As stated above, populations rarely grow smoothly up to the …(100 of 4579 words)

Bio-geographic isolation is the separation of part/a whole species due to either biological or geographical reasons.
Biological could be lack of food, or a more preferable source of food somewhere else, etc. Geographical could be rivers, oceans, mountains, etc.
Answer: Hunt and kill other organisms
Explanation:
A predator is a living organism usually animal, that is capable of hunting, killing and feeding on other organisms. The hunted animal is called a prey.
For example:
Lions, tigers, leopards all hunt for antelopes using their good eyesight to find them, their powerful claws to kill and their jaws to feed on its flesh.
Thus, lions, tigers and leopards are predators while antelopes are preys
