Explanation:
1) When the number of herrings decrease, the food available for the puffins decrease and therefore they will not be able to feed their offspring. This will cause the number of offspring to decrease.
2) Any other animal(s) which hunts and eats the same prey as a herring will now have a bigger food supply.
3) When the biomass of phytoplankton decrease, the next animal in the food web will not have any food and their numbers will decrease, decreasing the number of the animals next in the web, as they too lose their food. This will continue for the rest of the food web and the number of animals will decrease.
what are the two characteristics of Pine due to which it is not placed under sub division angiosperms
Answer:
The angiosperms, or flowering plants, are the largest and most species-rich phylum of plants, with more than 250,000 species estimated.
Defining Characteristics
The term "angiosperm" derives from two Greek words: angeion, meaning "vessel," and sperma, meaning "seed." The angiosperms are those plants whose seeds develop within a surrounding layer of plant tissue, called the carpel, with seeds attached around the margins. This arrangement is easily seen by slicing into a tomato, for example. Collectively, carpels together with the style and stigma are termed the ovary, and these plus associated structures develop into the mature

What is the Constant of “which bait works best for a fly trap?”
Answer:
Mix scraps of meat (the older, the better) with something sweet. Lots of people swear by using rotten fish or shrimp, which probably work best because they smell so much. Bait for Fruit Flies: Use fruit (the riper, the better), apple cider vinegar, fruit juice, syrup, wine, beer, or any combination

As more is learned about cancer, it has become clear that cancer, with few exceptions, ________. Group of answer choices is only dependent on the inherited genetics is a result of genetics and environmental factors is 100% dependent on inherited genetics has no genetic basis
Answer: Is a result of genetics and environmental factors.
Explanation:
Cancer is the common name for a group of diseases in which there is a division of the body's cells, whose growth exceeds that of normal tissues and which persists in the same excessive manner. It can begin in a localized manner and spread to other surrounding tissues and its malignancy is very variable, according to the aggressiveness of its cells and other biological characteristics of each type of tumor. In general, the behavior of cancer cells is characterized by lacking the reproductive control required by their original function, acquiring the capacity to invade tissues (metastasis), spreading through the organism via the lymphatic or circulatory system, and causing the growth of new tumors in other parts of the body.
A gene is a hereditary unit composed of DNA that carries the instructions for producing proteins, which do much of the work in our cells. Certain genetic alterations can cause cells to evade growth controls and become cancerous cells. These changes can be inherited from our parents if the changes are present in the germ cells (eggs and sperm) and they are called germline changes. In addition, cancer-causing genetic changes can also be acquired during a person's lifetime (somatic or acquired changes), as a result of DNA errors that occur when cells divide either spontaneously or by exposure to carcinogenic substances that damage DNA (environmental factors), such as certain chemicals in tobacco smoke, or radiation, such as ultraviolet rays from the sun. These substances damage DNA, acting as mutagens.
Sometimes, the changes are not in the DNA sequence. For example, the epigenetic modifications are the presence of chemical marks in DNA which can determine if the gene is expressed. This means, whether and how much messenger RNA is produced, because the messenger RNA is translated into proteins.
So, cancer cells have genetic changes compared to normal cells. These changes are due to mutations that can be inherited, acquired spontaneously during life, or acquired due to environmental factors such as sun exposure, smoking, and other factors. In addition, the fact that a person has the cancer-related mutation does not necessarily mean that he or she will develop the disease during his or her lifetime. In some cases, even if they have this genetic vulnerability, they remain healthy, because cancer is a multifactorial disease that depends on many factors, such as the immune system, nutrition and certainly many others currently unknown to medicine.

What would be the resulting polypeptide chain that is produced from the DNA template code: TACTTCAAAATC? Use the following RNA codon to amino acid table to help you figure out the resulting polypeptide. Show your steps.
Answer:
Methionine- Lysine- leucine- stop
Explanation:
This question is describing the processes of transcription and translation, which are both involved in protein synthesis. Transcription is the synthesis of a mRNA molecule from a DNA template while translation is the synthesis of a polypeptide/amino acid sequence from a mRNA template.
The following DNA molecule was given as follows; TAC TTC AAA ATC. Firstly transcription will synthesize an mRNA molecule based on complementary base pairing rule. The resulting mRNA will be: AUG AAG UUU UAG
Next, the process of translation which involves the synthesis of an amino acid sequence from mRNA. Using the genetic code will produce the following:
Methionine- Lysine- leucine- stop

Which of the following statements about cardiac muscle is true? a. Cardiac muscle is like smooth muscle, because smooth muscle has a banded appearance. b. Cardiac muscle is like smooth muscle, because it contains no bands. c. Cardiac muscle contains bands like skeletal muscle, but its contractions are involuntary like smooth muscle. d. Cardiac muscle is like skeletal muscle, because skeletal muscle has involuntary contractions.
Answer:
c. Cardiac muscle contains bands like skeletal muscle, but its contractions are involuntary like smooth muscle.
Explanation:
In Human anatomy, cardiac cycle can be defined as a complete heartbeat of the human heart which comprises of sequential alternating contraction and relaxation of the atria and ventricles, therefore causing blood to flow unidirectionally (one direction) throughout the human body.
Cardiac muscle is also referred to as myocardium and it's one of the three (3) muscles found only in the heart of vertebrates, the other two (2) being smooth muscle tissue and skeletal muscle tissue.
Cardiac muscle contains bands like skeletal muscle referred to as sarcomeres (contractile units), but its contractions are involuntary like smooth muscle and it's typically being regulated by the sinoatrial node of the heart.

All of the following statements are true concerning skeletal muscles EXCEPT: A. Skeletal muscles control involuntary body functions. B. Skeletal muscles are controlled by the central nervous system. C. Skeletal muscles are used to move large body parts. D. Skeletal muscles are attached to the bones. Please select the best answer from the choices provided. A B C D
Answer:
A. Skeletal muscles control involuntary body functions.
Explanation:
Skeletal muscle is also known as voluntary muscle and it can be defined as a type of muscle connected with the skeleton by tendons, so as to form a mechanical system that enables the movement of the limbs and other body parts with respect to another.
Generally, skeletal muscles are only found in vertebrates.
Skeletal muscles doesn't control involuntary body functions, instead it controls voluntary body functions such as the movement of body parts.
In conclusion, an example of a muscle responsible for controlling involuntary body functions is cardiac muscle.

The sugar in RNA is, the sugar in DNA is
deoxyribose; ribose
glucose; deoxyribose
ribose; glucose
ribose; deoxyribose
Answer:
Last choice: ribose; deoxyribose
Explanation:
Ribose (otherwise known as D-ribose) is a sugar found in RNA (ribonucleic acid). It alternates with phosphate groups to create the “backbone” of the RNA polymer.
Deoxyribose (sugar in DNA) is one of the three components of nucleotides for DNA. Each nucleotide consists of a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base: adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine, and deoxyribose.
Glucose is a type of sugar which is a common and crucial energy source in living organisms and is often a component in various carbohydrates. Plants can create glucose by going through a process called photosynthesis, and once it's done with the process, they use the glucose (sugar) as their food for energy.
