1. What is density dependence, and why is it important in multicellular
organisms?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: It is when the population growth rates are regulated by density of a population. This is important in a multicellular organism for several reasons. It would affect the birth and death rates of the organism.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Density dependence refers to the dependence of population growth on density. Natality and mortality rates depend on the number of individuals. The concept is closely related to competition between individuals for resources.

---------------------------

The concept is related to the logistic growth model.

Populations that express a logistic growth model are mostly composed of multicellular organisms.

Population growth depends on density. Natality and mortality depend on the population size, meaning that there is no independence between population growth and population density.

When a population grows in a limited space, density rises gradually and eventually affects the multiplication rate.

The population per capita growth rate decreases as population size increases.

While growing, the population reaches a maximum point delimited by available resources, such as food or space. This point is known as the carrying capacity, K.

K is a constant that equals population size at the equilibrium point, in which the natality and the mortality rate get equal to each other.

Assuming that population size is N, when

N<K, the population can still grow.  N approximates to K, the population´s growth speed decreases.  N=K the population reaches equilibrium,   N>K, the population must decrease in size because there are not enough resources to maintain that size.  

Usually a sigmoid curve represents the logistic growth model.

So what does it mean?

That the natality and moratality rate depends on the number of individuals in the population.

As the population grow, the number of individuals increases, and competition for resources increases.

When the population reaches the critical point of being equal to carrying capacity, means that the environment can not support more individuals.

There are not enough resources for all of them, and competition increases affecting the reproductive rate and population growth.

So after this point, the population size decreases.

B) A plant cell has a well defined shape, because it has a cell wall.
C) A plant cell can store genetic information, because it has a nucleus.
D) Molecules can only pass into an animal cell because it has a cell membrane.

Answers

Answer:

B. A plant cell has a well defined shape because it has a cell wall

Explanation:

When you compare an animal cell to a plant cell you can see that a plant cell has a cell wall while and animal cell only has a cell memebrane. The cell walls of the plant help the plant by providing support and keeping it's shape.

The difference between plant and animal cells is plant cell has a well defined shape, because it has a cell wall.

What are the functions of cell wall?

The cell wall surrounds the plasma membrane of plant cells and provides tensile strength and protection against mechanical and osmotic stress.

The main functions of the cell wall are to provide structure, support, and protection for the cell. The cell wall in plants is composed mainly of cellulose and contains three layers in many plants.

The cell wall is composed of a network of cellulose microfibrils and cross-linking glycans embedded in a highly cross-linked matrix of pectin polysaccharides.

Answer: I think its b

Explanation:

A polar molecule is different from a nonpolar molecule in the fact that a polar molecule has charges separated like the poles of a magnet. Thus, the correct option for this question is A.

What is a Polar molecule?

A polar molecule may be defined as a type of molecule in which one end of the molecule is slightly positive, while the other end is slightly negative. For example, water is an example of a polar molecule.

Being a polar molecule, water is separated by a positively charged hydrogen atom and a negatively charged oxygen atom. Polar molecules are asymmetric in nature and significantly contain lone pairs of electrons on a central atom or atoms with different electronegativities bonded together.

Non-polar molecules are symmetric with no unshared electrons. These molecules have resulted from an unequal distribution of electron density.

Therefore, polar molecules have charges separated like the poles of a magnet. Thus, the correct option for this question is A.

Low genetic variation or a lack of genetic diversity increases the risks of extinction. Scientists have observed this in cheetah populations. Captive feline cheetahs at a breeding colony for large cats were exposed to a viral pathogen that killed roughly 50% of the cheetah population. None of the lions in the large cat population developed symptoms or were affected. Scientists know that lions have a more extensive genetic variation, which means they had the gene variations in their immune system necessary to fend off the disease. Describe the evidence that supports how the cheetah population is likely experiencing a lack of genetic diversity. Suggest one way humans can intervene to increase genetic diversity. Predict a potential adaptation that could result from this increase in diversity. (Please be longer than a few sentences)

Answers

Answer:

Because the pathogen killed off 50% of the population that means half of the population was susceptible to the disease, meaning that genetic variation is incredibly low because 50% of the species is the same. Humans can fix this by interbreeding cheetahs with different traits, or even breed them with a different species that is compatible for reproduction.

Explanation:

Half of the population was susceptible to the disease since the pathogen killed off 50% of the population, which means that genetic variation is extremely minimal because 50% of the species are the same.

What is genetic diversity?

Genetic diversity refers to the total number of genetic traits that make up a species' genetic composition.

It varies greatly depending on the number of species present as well as across species, and it can be linked to a species' longevity.

A group that is genetically homogeneous and exposed to a new pathogen without the gene variant to stop the disease could go extinct.

By performing a skin graft surgery where a portion of skin from a donor cheetah is given to a recipient cheetah, which is easily accepted if it is an inbred population, evidence to support the loss of genetic diversity of the cheetah population can be gained.

By implementing captive breeding programs, encouraging females to breed with various males in order to produce offspring with various traits, protecting the natural habitat, fostering coexistence of the cheetah species with other species and humans.

Also reducing competition for the same food source, we as humans can take action to increase the genetic diversity in the cheetah population.

Thus, these are the evidence that supports how the cheetah population is likely experiencing a lack of genetic diversity.

explanation:

asexual reproduction is when a single organism uses its own DNA as a template to create another organism (through binary fission, fragmentation, budding, etc.) that is genetically identical

sexual reproduction is when two organisms create a combination of DNA (through a mixing of genes during meiosis, reproduction, etc.) to create an organism that is genetically different
