How can the environment affect population sizes?

Food, water, shelter, predation, and density are all things that can allow a population to increase or cause it to decrease. Limiting factors like food and water are necessary resources for all organisms without them they will die so these factors directly affect any population size. Hope this helps :)

Answer: More people require more resources, which means that as the population increases, the Earth's resources deplete more rapidly. The result of this depletion is deforestation and loss of biodiversity as humans strip the Earth of resources to accommodate rising population numbers. Food, water, shelter, predation, and density are all things that can allow a population to grow or cause it to decline. Limiting factors like food and water are necessary resources for all organisms; without them they will die so these factors directly affect population size.

Brainliest please if it helped!

Given what you know about the endosymbiotic theory, which region of the chloroplast below would you expect to be derived from th

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

Photosynthetic lamellae

Explanation:

The cyanobacteria were the first successful photosynthetic cells present on the Earth which were able to convert the light energy into the chemical energy.

The endosymbiosis theory suggested that these cyanobacteria were engulfed by the eukaryotes and the cyanobacteria get transformed into the chloroplast.

The region of the chloroplast that was formed in the cyanobacteria before the endosymbiosis happened was the photosynthetic lamellae which contained the chlorophyll molecule and thus is the correct answer.

Thus, Photosynthetic lamellae are the correct answer.

What is the natural polysaccharide whose repeating structure can be symbolized by glcuaβ(1→3)glcnac, with these units connected

Nina [5.8K]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

The polysaccharide is <u><em>Hyaluronic acid</em></u>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

<u><em>Hyaluronic acid is a natural polysaccharide</em></u> which is in the class of glycosaminoglycans that is mostly found in <em><u>neural, connective and epithelial tissues in human body. </u></em>
<em><u>Hyaluronic acid is made up repeating units of glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine</u></em> that are<em><u> joined by alternating β- 1,4 and β- 1,3 glycosidic bonds. </u></em>
It is a <em><u>linear polysaccharide and is the only glycosaminoglycan </u></em>that lacks sulfate atoms in its structure.

Identify the position on the graph that gives the carrying capacity of the population.

Darina [25.2K]

The carrying capacity of any individual biological species is the maximum size of the population which can sustain indefinitely in that environment provided the necessary requirements like food, water and other environmental conditions are available.

The carrying capacity in the graph is the point on the graph where the line of population is horizontal. The graph has the population in y-axis and time period on x-axis. Alternatively if in the carrying capacity graph the line becomes parallel to x axis then it gives the carrying capacity. Here, at the point 2000 on y-axis and starting from 15 months in x-axis is the point of carrying capacity is marked with red horizontal line and green border in the image attached.

What are some similarities between the structure of DNA and a ladder?

Sidana [21]

The similarity just lies in the structure. DNA is double-stranded, however it is twisted/helical, while the ladder does not twist. However, other than that, they are quite similar. The 2 strands (5' -> 3' and 3' -> 5') of DNA serve as the 2 vertical sides of the ladder. The base pairs of DNA are what connect the two strands together. So, in terms of the ladder, think of the steps of the ladder as the base pairs. Think each step as consisting of 2 entities joining together to make 1 big step. For example, think of a step having 2 halves down the middle. 1 half would be a guanine (base) and the other half would be a cytosine (base). Guanine is connected to the 5' --> 3' strand (Left vertical side of ladder) while the Cytosine is connected to the 3' --> 5' strand (right vertical side of ladder). These two come together at one of their ends and base pair, which appears to look like the steps on a ladder.
