Question 1: Biodiversity and Ecosystem Health (20 points) a) Describe two ways of measuring biodiversity. Explain the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem stability. As part of your explanation, discuss how susceptibility to disease in agricultural crops and in isolated tribal human populations provides evidence that supports this idea. (5 points)
Answer:
explanation below
Explanation:
A) Biodiversity is simply known as the number and variety of organisms found in a definite environment or region. Scientists have devised several ways of measuring biodiversity and the methods to be used depend on the type of organisms they are to count.
Canopy fogging – one of the ways of measuring biodiversity, has remained an effective way of obtaining details about the biodiversity of insects. It involves the act of spraying low dose of insecticides on a tree top, and when the insects fall from the trees, they are being collected on a large screen, that looks like a funnel.
Transact sampling is another way of measuring biodiversity and this time, with a transact line. The transact line is usually a measuring tape or rope that has been marked at set intervals.
b) Ecosystem stability is the ability of the ecosystem to maintain its steady state, even after it has experienced stress or disturbances. The biodiversity of an environment makes huge impact on the ecosystem stability in that particular area. It has been known that certain areas that have high levels of species and genetic diversity, are more likely going to an ecosystem that is complex, with varying food webs and biotic interactions. The increase in this complexity makes it more likely that the ecosystem of that area will rightly move back to a stable state whenever disturbances are experienced.
There are evaluated scientific evidence that shows that reduced biodiversity affects the transmission of communicable disease in agricultural crops, animals and humans. Loss of biodiversity usually increases susceptibility to diseases in plants and humans.
The swimming reflex is the combination of 2 unique factors. First, when submerged, babies will reflexively stop breathing through their nose. Secondly, their high voice boxes mean that any water will go into their _____.
Answer:
Trachea
Explanation:
The laryngeal reflex occurs and it is present in babies after birth. When water occupies or enters the mouth, the laryngeal reaction is triggered. While your infant is underwater, the glottis and epiglottis shut, keeping water from penetrating the throat(larynx and pharynx) and establishing a watertight barrier to the lungs. This is so to prevent the aspiration of water into the lungs.
Rheumatoid arthritis is commonly associated with the presence of rheumatoid factor autoantibodies in the bloodstream. This indicates that rheumatoid arthritis is likely to be a. an infective process. b. caused by bacterial infection. c. an autoimmune process. d. because of an enzymatic defect.
Answer:
The correct answer is - c. an autoimmune process
Explanation:
Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease or condition that affects the joints mainly by swollen, and painful joints. It is an autoimmune disease as the person's own immune system attacks the body.
The presence of rheumatoid factor autoantibodies states that it is an autoimmune process. There are other autoantibodies also associated with this type of arthritis that are rheumatoid factors (RF), anti‐keratin antibodies (AKA), anti‐filaggrin antibodies (AFA), and anti‐perinuclear factor (APF).

A segment of a DNA molecule has the base sequence ATGAAC. Write a shorthand structure for this segment and for its complementary strand, using the symbols D for deoxyribose and P for phosphate.
Answer: See attached picture.
Explanation:
DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is the name for the molecule that contains the genetic information in all living things. This molecule consists of two strands that wind around each other to form a double helix structure.
The basic unit of nucleic acids are called nucleotides, which are organic molecules formed by the covalent bonding of a nucleoside (a pentose which is a type of sugar and a nitrogenous base) and a phosphate group. So each nucleotide is made up of a pentose sugar called deoxyribose, a nitrogenous base which can be adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C) or guanine (G) and a phosphate group.
What distinguishes one polynucleotide from another is the nitrogenous base, and thus the sequence of DNA is specified by naming only the sequence of its bases. The sequential arrangement of these four bases along the chain is what encodes the genetic information, following the following criterion of complementarity: A-T and G-C. So the sequence of these bases along the chain is what encodes the instructions for forming proteins and RNA molecules. In living organisms, DNA occurs as a double strand of nucleotides, in which the two strands are linked together by connections called hydrogen bridges.
The chemical convention of naming the carbon atoms in the pentose nucleotide pentose numerically confers the names 5' end and 3' end ("five prime end" and "three prime end" respectively). The 5'-end designates the end of a DNA strand that coincides with the phosphate group of the fifth carbon of the respective terminal deoxyribose. A phosphate group attached to the 5'-end allows the ligation of two nucleotides; for example, the covalent bonding of the 5'-phosphate group to the 3'-hydroxyl group of another nucleotide, to form a phosphodiester bond.

What is the mechanism by which binding of testosterone to the testosterone receptor leads to upregulated gene transcription
Answer:
This binding causes a conformational change in the receptor which enters into the nucleus and binds DNA to activate transcription
Explanation:
Testosterone is a steroid hormone responsible for inducing protein synthesis and growth of tissues with androgen receptors. Testosterone receptors, also known as androgen receptors, are a class of nuclear receptors activated by binding androgenic hormones (e.g. testosterone) in the cytoplasm, whose binding induces a conformational change of the receptors that are subsequently translocated to the nucleus. Within the cell nucleus, these activated receptors form homodimers that bind DNA in order to promote the transcription of target genes capable of regulating cell growth, cell cycle progression and survival.
Ecologists are interested in quantifying different kinds of biodiversity. In below study outlined here, which kind of biodiversity are ecologists studying?
Ecologists establish 20 small areas, called plots, randomly scattered across a California grassland. They count the number of different plant species present in each plot. By noting how many species appear in the plots, the ecologists are able to estimate the number of species in the entire grassland.
a. Genetic diversity
b. Functional diversity
c. Ecosystem diversity
d. Species diversity
Answer:
d. Species diversity
Explanation:
The species diversity can be measured by:
Species richness: Refers to the number of species are inhabiting a defined area. Species abundance: Describe the distribution of the species abundance.Species richness is the number of species present in a sample, within a community, habitat or microhabitat, ecosystem, landscape, region or any well-defined spatial unit. It is a metric for measuring biodiversity which simplicity and easy interpretation make it a standard metric. It is the simplest and straightforward measure of biodiversity. It is just a count of species, with no need for abundance data. In some cases, this can be the cause of criticism, as it ignores information about the species-abundance distribution.
What is the rapid change in a membrane's potential caused by the depolarization of a neuron?
Answer:
During depolarization, the membrane potential rapidly shifts from negative to positive. As the sodium ions rush back into the cell, they add positive charge to the cell interior, and change the membrane potential from negative to positive.

Describe the processes that turn metamorphic rock into igneous rock and the energy that powers the processes.
So, we know that a metamorphic rock is either an igneous or a sedimentary rock that are exposed to intense heat and pressure.
But when the metamorphic rock is thrusted deep underground through subduction, it will again be subjected to intense heat. This can cause it to melt, turning it into a magma. When the magma cools down, it again becomes an igneous rock and the rock cycle continues.

Predict a change in the Earth's surface or effect observed at each of the following for
1 point each:
- TRANSFORM BOUNDARY
- DIVERGENT BOUNDARY
- CONVERGENT BOUNDARY
Answer:
Divergent boundaries occur along spreading centers where plates are moving apart and new crust is created by magma pushing up from the mantle. Picture two giant conveyor belts, facing each other but slowly moving in opposite directions as they transport newly formed oceanic crust away from the ridge crest.
Perhaps the best known of the divergent boundaries is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. This submerged mountain range, which extends from the Arctic Ocean to beyond the southern tip of Africa, is but one segment of the global mid-ocean ridge system that encircles the Earth. The rate of spreading along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge averages about 2.5 centimeters per year (cm/yr), or 25 km in a million years. This rate may seem slow by human standards, but because this process has been going on for millions of years, it has resulted in plate movement of thousands of kilometers. Seafloor spreading over the past 100 to 200 million years has caused the Atlantic Ocean to grow from a tiny inlet of water between the continents of Europe, Africa, and the Americas into the vast ocean that exists today.

Alleles are described as ____________________. homologous chromosomes homologous chromosomes alternate versions of a gene alternate versions of a gene alternate phenotypes alternate phenotypes environmental factors that affect gene expression
Answer:
The correct answer is - alternate versions of a gene.
Explanation:
In a cell, if there are two copies of each chromosome, these are called homologous chromosomes, one come from the father and the other comes from the mother, which helps in promoting the variety and stability of a species.
Different or alternate versions of genes are possible that can result in two phenotypes for the same trait, these alternate versions called alleles. Alleles can be dominant and recessive.

Which of the following processes depend on fusion?
A. the atomic bombs used in World War II
B. the energy production in the sun
C. the geothermal heating in the mantle of the Earth
D. the energy production in nuclear reactors
Answer:
B. the energy production in the sun.
Explanation:
The sun ngenerates its energy by nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium.
The right answer to the provided question is that the sun's energy generation method is based on fusion.
How nuclear fusion occurs in sun?
Nuclear fusion is the process that occurs when two or more atomic nuclei unite to generate one or more distinct atomic nuclei and subatomic particles neutrons or protons.
The mass differential between reactants and products results in either energy release or absorption.
In the Sun's core, hydrogen is being converted into helium. This is referred to as nuclear fusion.
The fusion of four hydrogen atoms produces one helium atom. During the process, some of the mass is converted into energy.
So, we can conclude that Nuclear fusion occurs within the sun's core. Because of the amount of pressure within the sun, nuclear fusion occurs at its core.
