Answer:

A mutation could have no effect on the organism that inherits the mutation because of the chances of the organism's parents/producers. One parent may be dominantly having the mutation while the other parent may have the mutation but does not display its effects, thus labeling this parent as a carrier of the trait/mutation. Drawing a punnet square would best be used to describe the possibilities of each offspring and how each carries or shows the mutation inherited from their parents.

Answer:

Explanation:

Food webs describe the relationships — links or connections — among species in an ecosystem, but the relationships vary in their importance to energy flow and dynamics of species populations. Some trophic relationships are more important than others in dictating how energy flows through ecosystems. Some connections are more influential on species population change. Based on different ways in which species influence one another, Robert Paine proposed three types of food webs based on the species of a rocky intertidal zone on the coast of Washington (Ricklefs 2008, Figure 2). Connectedness webs (or topological food webs) emphasize feeding relationships among species, portrayed as links in a food web (Paine 1980). Energy flow webs quantify energy flow from one species to another. Thickness of an arrow reflects the strength of the relationship. Functional webs (or interaction food webs) represent the importance of each species in maintaining the integrity of a community and reflect influence on the growth rate of other species' populations. As shown in Figure 2, limpets Acmaea pelta and A. mitra in the community consume considerable food energy (energy flow web), but removal of these consumers has no detectable influence on the abundance of their resources (functional web). The most effective control was exerted by sea urchin Stronglocentrotus and the chiton Katharina (Ricklefs 2008).

A prey is an animal that is being eaten by a predator.
- If prey population decreases in number, the predator population will also decrease because there is not enough food for predators to survive.
- If predator population decreases, the prey population will increase because less prey will be eaten by predators.
- If prey population increases, the predator population could also increase because there will be a lot of food for them.
- If predator population increases, the prey population must decrease because more predators will eat more prey.
