The burrowing owl is found in dry, open areas such as grasslands, prairies, savannas, deserts, farmlands, golf courses, and other urban areas throughout most of western United States and Florida, Central America, and most of South America. It makes its home in burrows of other animals and primarily eats insects and small rodents. As humans build more cities, nearby burrowing owl habitats change due to destruction of burrows and loss of prey. Which is the least likely outcome of the habitat changes that are described?AThe niche of the burrowing owl may change as it adapts to the changes. BThe niche of the burrowing owl may change as it moves to a new habitat. CThe population of the burrowing owl may be reduced or even become extinct. DThe population of the burrowing owl may increase in its new surroundings.

The reason tropical deforestatio is worse than temperate deforestation is because there is a. there is more carbon in the ground in temparate forests
b. more carbon in tress in temperate forests
c. rates of photosysnthesis are higher in temperate forests

Answers

Answer:

Option A, there is more carbon in the ground in temparate forests

Explanation:

In temperate forests the nutrients are mostly found in the soil including the carbon, while in case of tropical forests these nutrients (including carbon) are up taken by the trees and stored there itself. Now when the tropical forest trees are cut down the carbon reserves with in the trees is  destroyed and released in the atmosphere. As per estimate the amount of carbon released by deforestation of tropical forest is much more disastrous than the gas emission of automobiles and industries in the current time.

Hence, option A is the correct choice of answer

I believe C is the correct answer.

why is it more important for dna replication to be exact than for transcription or translation to be exact

Answers

Because DNA replication contains essentially all the genetic materials that will be needed in transcription and translation processes. And DNA replication is first step to ensure correct protein synthesis and others as well. But translation and transcription are both important to be exact, actually as incorrect transcription or translation could lead to useless proteins or etc.

in apex the answer is : an error in dna replication would affect many generations of cells

What two components are often found as part of an enzyme?

Answers

The two components which are often found as part of an enzyme are Active site and protein. Proteins are referred to as macromolecules or macromolecules which consists of more or one of a chain of amino acid residue. They do perform an array of functions which are within organisms. For example, DNA replication, responding to stimuli, catalyzing the metabolic reaction. An active site is referred to as the region of an enzyme where substrate molecules bind and also they undergo a chemical reaction. They contain of residues which form temporary with the substrate and also catalytic site which catalyzes a reaction.

Answer:

Protein (the apoenzyme) and active site (cofactor) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The two components are often found as part of an enzyme are

Protein (the apoenzyme)

  • proteins increase the rate of reaction that takes place within the living organism.
  • proteins consist of one or more chains of amino acids that make macromolecules.
  • They perform important functions within the organism such as proteins function is to catalyze the reactions that are necessary to our metabolism.

Active site (cofactor)

  • Active site:is the site where the enzyme binds with the substrate to initiates the reaction.

Which term best identifies a muscle cell?

Answers

A muscle cell is also termed as a myocyte. A myocyte is a long tubular-shaped cell found in muscle tissue. They are produced through a process called myogenesis. Myocytes develop from myoblasts which are embryonic cells. The different types of muscle cells include: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac myocytes. 

Which of the following is correctly paired with its function?Sensory somatic nervous system—controls skeletal muscles
Autonomic nervous system—creates voluntary response to stimuli
Parasympathetic nervous system—controls body response to emergency
Sympathetic nervous system—brings body to homeostasis
I know that C and D are mixed up definitions. The sympathetic nervous system controls the response to emergency situations and the parasympathetic brings the body back to homeostasis.
I'm also pretty sure the autonomic nervous system controls involuntary responses, not voluntary.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer would be Sensory somatic nervous system—controls skeletal muscles.

Somatic nervous system is a part of peripheral nervous system which controls the movement of skeletal muscles or voluntary movements.

It connects the skeletal system with central nervous system.

It comprises of two types of nerves:

  • Afferent nerves: These are also termed as sensory nerves and carry stimulus from receptors to the central nervous system.
  • Efferent nerves: These are also known as motor nerves and they carry commands or response from the central nervous system to the effector organs. It leads to the contraction of the muscle and thus results in voluntary movement.

What is the role of sensory neurons in the breakdown of food?

Answers

Sensory neurons sense the presence of food then relay the information to the brain so that food can be moved and digested in the digestive tract.
it digest the carbohydrates in the digestive tract, also telling the body to produce saliva and to chew the food.
