1. Many species of field mice can reproduce several times a year and produce
litters with multiple offspring. However, an ecologist noted that the population size
of mice in a California grassland remains stable from year to year. The factors that
keep natural populations from increasing are collectively called
A. X-factor.
O B. limiting factors.
O C. carrying capacity.
O D. birth, death, immigration, and emigration.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Limiting Factors

Explanation:

Answer 2

limiting factors determine a habitat's carrying capacity. hence the factor that keep natural population from increasing are collectively called limiting factors. Thus option B is correct.

What do you mean by carrying capacity of a species ?

In an ecosystem the number of organism can survive successfully under certain resources referred as carrying capacity.

If a species population exceeds the environment's carrying capacity, the population depletes due to less availability of resources.

Several factors influence an environment include availability of food which is paramount  for the survival of a species.

Water is the another essential factor which help animal in food digestion, regulate body temperature and elimination of waste products.

Ecological Conditions of an environment  have an effect on carrying capacity of environment.

Space is another factor that provide a shelter to animals for survival and reproduction.

Thus option B is correct.

Why DNA is absent in blood plasma?

Answers

Answer:

Why do blood cells not have DNA?

Because of the lack of nuclei and organelles, mature red blood cells do not contain DNA and cannot synthesize any RNA, and consequently cannot divide and have limited repair capabilities. The inability to carry out protein synthesis means that no virus can evolve to target mammalian red blood cells.

Explanation:

Blood plasma is a light amber-coloured liquid component of blood in which blood cells are absent but contains proteins and other constituents of whole blood in suspension. It makes up about 55% of the body's total blood volume. It is the intravascular part of extracellular fluid (all body fluid outside cells). It is mostly water (up to 95% by volume) and contains important dissolved proteins, hormones, carbon dioxide (plasma being the main medium for excretory product transportation), and oxygen. It plays a vital role in an intravascular osmotic effect that keeps electrolyte concentration balanced and protects the body from infection and other blood-related disorders.

Blood plasma is separated from the blood by spinning a tube of fresh blood containing an anticoagulant in a centrifuge until the blood cells fall to the bottom of the tube. The blood plasma is then poured or drawn off. For point-of-care testing applications, plasma can be extracted from whole blood via filtration or via agglutination to allow for rapid testing of specific biomarkers. Blood plasma has a density of approximately 1,025 kg/m3 (1.025 g/ml).

Blood serum is blood plasma without clotting factors.

Plasmapheresis is a medical therapy that involves blood plasma extraction, treatment, and reintegration.

Fresh frozen plasma is on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines, the most important medications needed in a basic health system. It is of critical importance in the treatment of many types of trauma that result in blood loss and is therefore kept stocked universally in all medical facilities capable of treating trauma.

What are details/evidence of a Prokaryotes? please help and thank you.​

Answers

Answer:

Prokaryotic cells are much smaller than eukaryotic cells, have no nucleus, and lack organelles. All prokaryotic cells are encased by a cell wall. Many also have a capsule or slime layer made of polysaccharide. Prokaryotes often have appendages (protrusions) on their surface.


What is the evidence of prokaryotes?

Scientists have concluded that prokaryote life forms preceded the more complex eukaryotes. All organisms on Earth are classified into two basic cell types. "Kary" means nucleus. "Pro" means "before," and prokaryotes have DNA in a freely floating ring that is not encased in a nucleus.

How is the idea of PTT related to the
locations and distribution of volcanoes,
earthquake epicenters and mountain ranges?​

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The mantle is one of the four layers that form the earth. It is a very hot and dense rock, that is capable of flow. The crust is the outermost layer of the earth and is located just over the mantle. The crust is divided into many plates, that are able to move over the mantle.  

The tectonic plates theory, PTT, is based on the continual movements of the crust and might explain the movement of the different plates, and their directions and interactions.

Plates are limited by three different ridges or borders that differ in the type of movement they produce.

Divergent limits: where two plates get separated, leaving a space among them that make a place for a stream of hot material that comes from the mantle to create a new seabed. This separation occurs because of the sea bottom expansion. As old plates get separated, the new and young crust instantaneously gets formed. There is never an open space left, because the emerging mantle occupies that place. This process occurs along with an underwater mountain range which is known as the mid-oceanic ridge or divergent ridge. An example of this is the ridge located in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, extending from Greenlander to the southernmost point of South America. These divergent limits are in general associated with the rocky material involved in the expansion of the seafloor.  

Convergent limits: These movements occur when two plates collide. It might occur among two oceanic plates or one oceanic and one continental plate. In this last case, the oceanic plate is always the one that subducts. The thicker and older plate subduces under the other plate, and at this point, it starts the volcanic activity. As the thicker plate descends, it is heated and melted and its materials are incorporated into the mantle. As the older plate subducts, all the sedimental material that was on the surface of this plate, accumulate and incorporate into a wedge-shaped mass known as an accretion prism. The fast subduction and accretion prism formation make a place for magma that ascends to the surface by crevices. This produces the formation of the volcanic arches, located behind the accretion prism. If these arches are formed on the continental plate, these formations are known as continental arches. But if they occur in another oceanic plate, the arches are known as volcanic island arches. The volcanic islands are arranged in a circumference arch shape, which is bordered by a fossa. Subduction zones coincide with deep-sea trenches or depressions in the ocean bed. The Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean are examples of these volcanic islands. The Nazca plate is another example oceanic plate subducting under the south American plate and originating the Andes mountains.  

Transforming limits refer to geological structures related to the seafloor expansion and associated in general with the oceanic ridge, although they might also occur in the continental plate. These limits are known as geological faults, where no rocky material is either destroyed or formed. When the plates move and one of the transforming limits displace from side to side, earthquakes occur. The movement breaks the crust and originates pronounced fractures. The San Andrés fault is an example of this plate ridges.  

why do we have so much dna?

Answers

Answer:

Of the trillions of cells that compose our body, from neurons that relay signals throughout the brain to immune cells that help defend our bodies from constant external assault, almost every one contains the same 3 billion DNA base pairs that make up the human genome – the entirety of our genetic material. It is remarkable that each of the over 200 cell types in the body interprets this identical information very differently in order to perform the functions necessary to keep us alive. This demonstrates that we need to look beyond the sequence of DNA itself in order to understand how an organism and its cells function.

How is an HIV infection different from a cold virus infection?

A. HIV is killed by macrophages.

B. HIV is a bacteria.

C. HIV is a lipase.

D. HIV attacks helper T cells.

Answers

Answer:

HIV attacks helper T cells.

Explanation:

The correct answer is that HIV attacks helper T cells, while a cold virus infection does not. That is in Option D, as an HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) infection and a cold virus infection are caused by two different types of viruses.

What is HIV?

HIV is a retrovirus, which means that it contains RNA as its genetic material instead of DNA. When the virus infects a host cell, it uses an enzyme called reverse transcriptase to convert its RNA into DNA, which is then integrated into the host cell's genome. This allows the virus to hijack the host cell's machinery and produce more copies of itself, which can then infect other cells in the body. One of the main targets of HIV infection is the CD4+ T cell, also known as the helper T cell. Helper T cells play a key role in the immune system by helping to activate and coordinate other immune cells, such as B cells and cytotoxic T cells.

Hence, the correct answer is that HIV attacks helper T cells, while a cold virus infection does not. That is in Option D.

choose a plant or animal that you think is interesting. describe some of the threats or challenges

Answers

Answer:

If I were to choose a plant or animal which is interesting, I'd choose the "cactus."

Explanation:

A "cactus" is truly a splendid plant owing to its ability to survive in the desert or periods of drought. Growing them is also not that challenging or difficult. However, this plant is prone to certain threats that may lead to its extinction.

One of these threats is the "over-collection of cacti." Due to its versatile use, the cactus is often sold as an ornamental plant. Another threat is the number of pests, such as snails and slugs, that attacks it yearly. It is a delicious food for mealy bugs, red spider mites, gnats, flies, etc.People often misunderstand the cactus' water level needs. Some people over-water the plant and this often results to the bacteria, virus and fungi being attracted to it.

Answers

Answer:

a. DNA replication proceeds in a 5' to 3' direction in the new DNA molecule and in the opposite direction in the original

c. Each new DNA molecule contains an original strand and a newly synthesized strand.

Explanation:

DNA replication is an important process every cell must undergo prior to division. DNA replication is the process whereby DNA content is doubled. It occurs as a result of an enzyme called DNA polymerase, which synthesizes nucleotides.

DNA replication follows the semi-conservative model which uses one original DNA strand to synthesize a new DNA strand. The double-stranded DNA is separated into two single strands which serve as template for new strands. Due to the action of DNA polymerase, DNA replication proceeds in a 5' to 3' direction in the new DNA molecule and in the opposite direction in the original.

Also, each newly synthesized DNA molecule which is similar to one another contains an original strand (template) and a newly synthesized strand.
