Which of the following is NOT considered a potential cause of extinction?(A) introduction of a new predator
(B) introduction of a new parasite
(C) introduction of a new mutation
(D) interspecific competition for limited resources
(E) habitat destruction
Please explain the work behind the solution

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

C is the correct response to this query: the introduction of a new mutation. Mutations are modifications to an organism's genetic code; while they may result in phenotypic alterations, they seldom result in extinction.

What happens if a new predator hunts down ?

If a new predator is able to hunt down or outcompete an existing species, or if it spreads a disease or parasite, it can lead to extinction. If a novel parasite can spread swiftly and generate significant mortality rates, it may lead to extinction.

If one species is more suited and can outcompete the other species for resources, interspecific rivalry for scarce resources can lead to extinction. Last but not least, extinction may result through habitat damage if it results in a decrease in food, water, or shelter. something an organism requires to survive.

In conclusion, the introduction of a novel mutation is not seen to be a probable cause of extinction since mutations are often too gradual and the changes they bring about are typically too minor to do so.

Michelle wants to classify an organism that she is studying in lab. The organism is multicellular, makes its own food, and is unable to move around its environment. The organism that Michelle is studying can most likely be classified into Domain _______.

Answers

The domain in which this organism is included is Eukarya. As the name indicates, Eukarya domain includes all the organisms which are made up of eukaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells are kind of cells which have well defined nucleus and membrane bound organelles.

Further, this domain named Eukarya comprises 4 kingdoms which are mentioned as under:

1) Plantae

2) Animalia

3) Fungi

4) Protista

These 4 kingdoms include several organisms of varying characteristics but an organism having the mentioned characteristics i.e. multicellular, makes its own food, and is unable to move around its environment is specifically included in Kingdom Plantae.

It's domain is eukarya. And it's kingdom is Archaeplastida or plantae.

The four main parts of a flower are the _____. pistil stamen receptacle inflorescence sepal petal xylem phloem

Answers

Answer: The correct answer for the blank is -

Sepal, petal, stamen, and pistil.

Flower is the reproductive structure of flowering plants (angisperms). It is primarily composed of four parts, which are (from outside to innerside) -

Sepals (that together form  calyx, the outermost protective whorl)

Petals (that together form corolla, the second whorl)

Stamen (the male reproductive part that together forms androecium, which is the male reproductive organ).

Stamen is further composed of anther (that produces pollen) and filament (stalk like structure, which protects anther).

Pistil (the innermost part that forms gynoecium, which is the female reproductive organ). It is composed of stigma, style, and ovary.

They would be the pistil, stamen, receptacle, and petal.

What takes place when you inhale and exhale ?

Answers

When you inhale and exhale, you actually breathe. When you inhale, your intercostal muscles between ribs and diaphragm contract. This increases the space in chest cavity so your lungs can expand and the air enters the lungs. When you exhale, intercostal muscles and diaphragm relax reducing the space in the chest which leads to removing the air from the lungs.
