Which activity is most likely a result of a sudden, unexpected change in the environment?. . A.A snake shedding its skin. B.Birds migrating to the south. C.The extinction of a type of shrimp. D.Bears hibernating.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Answer - C
Snakes periodically shed their skin in order to regrow new skin. Birds migrating to the south and bears hibernating are also a result of normal periodic transitions. However, extinction of a type of shrimp is most likely a result of a drastic change in the environment.
Answer 2
Answer: The activity that is most likely a result of sudden, unexpected change in the environment would be the extinction of a certain type of shrimp. Any extinction will change the environment in its own way. The correct answer is C.

Linnaeus significant development to modern taxonomy is

Answers

Answer:

Carolus Linnaeus is known as "Father of taxonomy" as he made two most important contributions to taxonomy:

1. The system of binomial nomenclature (a 2-part naming method)

2. A hierarchical classification system.

His system of classification consists of a hierarchy of groupings in phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species with the kingdom as the largest and most inclusive group while species as the smallest group.

We still use this system today but we have made some changes like we have added a level in the hierarchy which is domain the broadest level of life and all living things now fit into three domains: Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya. Within each domain there are kingdoms.

Thus, his contributions led to the development of modern taxonomy.

Linnaeus gave us a two-name system for identifying organisms. It is called binomial nomenclature.

Which of the following is a component of the plasma membrane that creates a chemical barrier between the inside and the outside of the cell? phospholipids cholesterol proteins water

Answers

Answer:

Phospholipids

Explanation:

Phospholipid bilayer is one of the components of the plasma membrane, and is made up of glycerol, two fatty acid tails and a phosphate head group. The head of the layer containing phosphate group is water-loving i.e. hydrophilic, hence, it faces outward attracted to intracellular and extracellular fluid while the tail consisting of two fatty acids is hydrophobic (water-fearing) and hence, faces inward to avoid water.

This property of the phospholipid bilayer is said to be AMPHIPATHIC. This amphipathic nature of the phospholipid component confers semi-permeability upon the plasma membrane as it serves as a chemical barrier, allowing only substances that are small in size and non-polar to move across the membrane without energy (passively).

What effect can fertilizer runoff have on an aquatic ecosystem?a. increased plant growth leading to a decrease in fish populations
b. increased plant growth leading to an increase in fish populations
c. decreased plant growth leading to a decrease in fish populations
d. decreased plant growth leading to an increase in fish populations

Answers

a. increased plant growth leading to a decrease in fish populations. Fertilizer runoff degrades aquatic system by promoting growth of algae, phytoplanktons and other aquatic plants. A phenomenon called 'algal bloom' will take place, increasing oxygen consuming bacteria and lessening the available oxygen for plants and animals in the area.

Answer:

it would be A

In the cells of the human body, oxygen moleculesare used directly in a process that
(1) releases energy
(2) digests fats
(3) synthesizes carbohydrate molecules
(4) alters the genetic traits of the cell

Answers

The answer is (1) releases energy. In the cells of the human body, oxygen molecules are used directly in a process of cellular respiration during which energy is released. In cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen yield carbon dioxide and water and energy is released in the form of adenosine triphosphate: C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose) + O₂ (oxygen) → H₂O (water) + CO₂ (carbon dioxide) + ATP (adenosine triphosphate).

Which of the following is a method that geneticists use to determine if an individual has chromosome abnormalities?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer would be karyotype of an individual.

Karyotype is the diagrammatic representation of the number and appearance of the chromosomes of an organism.

It determines the count of the chromosomes, their length, banding patterns, position of centromeres, difference between the sex chromosomes and other physical characteristics if present.

It helps in determining the presence of any chromosomal abnormalities in an organism.

For example, Turner syndrome (45, XO), Klinfelter syndrome (47, XXY), Down syndrome (trisomy of chromosome 21) et cetera .

The answer would be karyotype of the individual chromosomes
