Answer:The predicted population of brain coral in a reef covering 120m² is ; ≈ 40

First step : Calculate the value of the default population density

Population density = population size (dive 1) / total area

                                                               = 4 / 12  = 0.33

Total area ;

∑ Area of each reef quadrant = length * width = 2 * 2 = 4m²

∴ Total area = 4 + 4 + 4 = 12m².

Final step : Determine the value of the predicted population of brain coral

Population density = ( predicted population ) / predicted area

0.33 = ( pp ) / 120m²

∴ Predicted population ( pp ) = 0.33 * 120

                                                = 39.6 ≈ 40 brain corals

Hence we can conclude that the predicted population of brain coral is 40

All embryos appear female during early development. <br> a. True<br> b. False
guapka [62]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Geneticists have discovered that all human embryos start life as females. In the early development in the embryonic stage, this is true both for humans and mammals. This changes only at the 2nd month (in the case of humans, since different mammals have different gestating periods) if the embryo can elaborate enough androgens (dominant male hormone) to offset the maternal estrogens (dominant female hormone) then, maleness develops.

The actively dividing cells, or meristems, control plant growth. Primary (apical) meristems, the dividing tissue at the tips of the roots, grow longer roots, and secondary meristems, the dividing tissue seen in the cross-sections, grow thicker roots.
