"A student group is interested in studying the biodiversity that exists in the retention pond behind the school's parking lot. T

he students wonder if the conditions are appropriate to support invertebrates and fish in the muddy bottom and water of the pond. In order to plan this study, they need to propose the methodology and required apparatus to their science teacher. Which equipment would be best suited for this study?"

5 0

Some of the equipment the student can use are:

Nets

Underwater cameras

pH indicators

among others.

<h3>What does the student want to study?</h3>

The student wants to find out if there are invertebrates and fish or if the conditions of the pond would support these types of organisms.

<h3>What does the student need to do?</h3>

In this situation, there are two main approaches:

  • Study invertebrates and fish: This approach implies finding out if there are already invertebrates and fish in the pond, to do this, the student can
  • Directly observe organisms by using a special camera.
  • Use a net to catch organisms in the pond and then classify the organisms.

  • Study the conditions: This approach implies determining if the pond has the conditions for invertebrates and fish to live. To do this, the student will need to measure conditions such as:
  • Nutrients in the pond.
  • Temperature.
  • Ph.

This will require equipment such as pH indicators.

1.) Librarians organize books according to a classification system. Describe another type of classification system you have seen
marysya [2.9K]

Answer and explanation:

<h3>1. Librarians organize books according to a classification system. Describe another type of classification system you have seen or used.</h3>

<u>Similar to the way librarians organize their books, taxonomists and biologists can classify living organisms</u>.

In terms of biology, the taxonomic categories of species is a system used to group different species according to their physical and functional characteristics and their phylogenetic relationship.

Taxonomy can classify living organisms into domains - according to their cellular characteristics, as well as placing them in Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus and Species.

For example, man (Homo sapiens) is classified, according to his taxonomy in:

  • <em>Domain: Eukarya. </em>
  • <em>Phylum: Chordata. </em>
  • <em>Class: Mammal. </em>
  • <em>Order: Primates. </em>
  • <em>Family: Hominids </em>
  • <em>Gender: Homo </em>
  • <em>Species: Homo sapiens. </em>

The taxonomic classification system is a way of establishing differences and similarities among living beings, as well as offering an approximation to their morphology and specific functions within nature.

<h3>2. Describe three examples of how are plants and animals different</h3>

Plants belong to the Plantae kingdom, while animals belong to the Animalia kingdom, and there are clear differences between them:

  1. <em>Plants have no movement, while animals do. </em>
  2. <em>Plant organisms are capable of processing their own nutrients (autotrophs), through sunlight, carbon dioxide, oxygen, water and inorganic nutrients from the soil. Animals (heterotrophic) require to obtain their nutrients by consuming plants or other animals. </em>
  3. <em>In plants, plant cells have cloproplasts and chlorophyll, which are necessary for photosynthesis and to obtain energy substrate. The animal cell has mitochondria, which are in charge of cellular respiration, a process that provides them with energy. </em>
<h3>3. Describe three examples of how are plants and animals are similar</h3>

The similarities between plants and animals are based on the general characteristics of some living organisms:

  1. <em>They are eukaryotic multicellular organisms, formed by biomolecules such as carbohydrates, lipids and proteins. </em>
  2. <em>They have the capacity to reproduce and respond to stimuli. </em>
  3. <em>The metabolic pathways to carry out their organic processes - such as obtaining energy - are similar.</em>
<h3>4. What are some differences between plants and fungi? What specific characteristics that you observed from this activity might help you classify this organism?</h3>

Some differences between plants and mushrooms are:

  1. <em>Plants are photosynthetic organisms, capable of processing their own nutrients. Fungi require feeding on organic matter (heterotrophic). </em>
  2. <em>The nutrition of plants is by absorption of inorganic nutrients from the soil, while fungi perform an external digestion process and then make the absorption. </em>
  3. <em>From the cellular point of view, the wall of the plant cells is predominantly cellulose, while in the fungi the main component of the cell wall is chitin. </em>

An observable characteristic that allows us to establish the difference between plants and fungi is that plants are generally green, due to the presence of chlorophyll, necessary to carry out photosynthesis, while fungi are of variable colors, such as white, yellow, reddish or brown (they lack chlorophyll).

According to the envelope in Model 1, who is supposed to receive the letter?
matrenka [14]

If you are referring to the model attached, then the answer would be:

<u><em>Jane Doe</em></u>

This model demonstrates how one can categorize something based on certain information from general to specific characteristics. For example, many people have the same names, so how would we know who the person is referring to? Using specific details like the house number, building name or apartment, street and zip code will help narrow down who the letter is addressed to specifically. This is a method they use to organize organisms into specific classifications, based on specific characteristics.

<span>The correct answer is Paramecia, Euglenoids, and Mold. These are all unicellular eukaryotic organisms. Mold may seem like one big piece but it's actually a bunch of unicellular organisms living together and constantly spreading over foor or similar things. They are most commonly predators.</span>
