Out of the following given choices;
(1) an increase in the number of clams
(2) a decrease in the number of water plants
(3) an increase in the number of crabs
(4) a decrease in the number of crayfish
The answer is D. Crayfish are are freshwater crustaceans resembling small
lobsters. Clams and crabs are found in marine waters. Most crayfish cannot
tolerate polluted water. Crayfish feed on animals and plants, either living or
decomposing, and detritus, therefore a decrease in small invertebrates in the river
would decrease their food source thence
consequently affect their numbers.
Answer:
its cells that build organisms
Explanation:
Two sample T test
subjects are independent across treatments
The two-sample t-test is used to determine if two population means are equal. A common application is to test if a new process or treatment is superior to a current process or treatment.
Cells need to be small in order to make exchanging materials faster. This is because, as the size of the cell increases (if we were to increase the size), then the volume increases faster than the surface area. We want more surface area, so this isn't effective if we increase the size. The larger the size also means that it takes more energy for them to move, so there will need to be more cytoplasm, and that's too much effort to generate. Imagine being in math class when you use those cubes, the one huge cube assembles 100 small cubes, that one huge cube has less surface area than those 100 small cubes combined. That's why we need small cells. A larger surface area allows for more exchanges to occur and a larger volume allows for more materials to be brought in or released from the cell at a given time. (The rate of exchange would increase for larger surface areas and volumes of cells.)
