There’s a lot but probably you know the basics like they’re vertebrates which means they got back bones , they have a scaly skin , they reproduce shelled eggs , cold blooded
The answer, I believe, would be C) A decrease in the wolf population - because the prey decreases, fewer wolves will be able to find food, which will lead to a decrease in their population.
Individuals with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency have increased resistance to malaria because the parasite does not survive well in cells with oxidative stress.
<h3>What is the link between G6P deficiency and malaria?</h3>
- Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is an X-linked recessive disorder.
- G6PD protects cells from oxidative damage especially the RBCs whose main function is to carry oxygen.
- Mutation in the gene results in G6PD deficiency leading to oxidative stress which can lead to anemia (iron deficiency) as there is breakdown of RBCs.
- However, G6PD deficiency is quite common in parts of Africa, Middle East, and South Asia, which are the regions of high malaria endemism.
- This is due to natural selection in which G6PD deficiency is not eliminated from the population as it can protect people from malaria infection.
- Malaria parasite <em>Plasmodium</em> species does not survive well in cells with oxidative stress.

Answer:
Explanation:
A keystone species is the one which plays an important role in maintaining the structure of the ecosystem. On the keystone species many other species of the ecosystem are dependent upon.
The potential effects associated with the keystone species includes the following:
1. No other species will be capable of filling the same ecological niche. Hence, the dependent organisms will suffer and the ecosystem will change drastically.
2. The ecosystem will be populated by the invasive species which will affects the population of native species.
Answer:
It is true to say that by using cuttings, exact genetic characteristics can be maintained, because the cuttings retain the same genetic information about the plant from which they were extracted.
Explanation:
Cuttings are buds or branches extracted from a plant to obtain a plant of the same species, through a type of asexual reproduction.
Once separated from the "progenitor" plant, the cutting is provided with a suitable medium for growth, and will have the possibility of growing roots, developing and growing as an independent plant, with the same genetic characteristics of the original plant, as if it were a clone.
In this reproductive process, man intervenes.
