BIOLOGY MIDDLE SCHOOL

The Michigan forests contain a variety of tree species. What happens to the tree population when a forest losses its diversity; when only one tree species dominates an area? Students in biology class conducted the following simulations to predict the effects oon one tree species due to the presence of an invasive insect species: the hemlock woolly adelgid. Simulation #1 - 1. 28 students were given a card marked with H for hemlock 2. Each student moves around the room to meet three other students and write their names on their card. 3. The teacher represents the hemlock woolly adelgid.. He touches one student who dies and sits down. That student reads the names on his/her card. 4. Each student named, also dies and also reads the names on their cards. 5. Continue to all the students sitting have read the names on their cards. Count the number of students still standing. Simulation #2 1. Students are given cards marked H - hemlock; JP - jack pine; F - balsam fir; A - aspen; B - birch. 2. Repeat steps #2 - #5 from Simulation #1. 3. This time ONLY the students marked H will sit down. The other species of trees do not die. Based on the students' simulations, what conclusion can be drawn?A)Biodiversity halts the impact of disease and/or insect damage in an ecosystem.
B)Planting hemlocks in stands by themselves will save the other tree species growing throughout Michigan.
C)By planting a variety of tree species, you reduce the impact of specific insect damage on a forest ecosystem.

What types of traits can show genetic variation within a species?​

Answers

Answer:

Types of variation in genetics

Genetic variation can be caused by mutation (which can create entirely new alleles in a population), random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis (which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring)

other answer

There are three sources of genetic variation: mutation, gene flow, and sexual reproduction. A mutation is simply a change in the DNA. Mutations themselves are not very common and are usually harmful to a population. Because of this, mutations are usually selected against through evolutionary processes

Which two main characteristics describe weather? A.
gravity

B.
temperature

C.
air pressure

D.
clouds

You have to choose 2.

Answers


if you want to know what describes weather, you have to think about it and eliminate the one that are obviously not correct.

So, gravity is obviously wrong.

Temperature is definatly one because you need temperature to calculate how cold/hot it is. Air pressure and clouds are the ones im not sure about. Clouds dont really describe weather but they could if you say cloudy. I think air pressure is needed to find out how strong the wind is but im not sure

Hope I helped a bit
the answer is B and C temperature and air pressure

White blood cells, part of the ___________ system, work closely with the ___________ system to protect us from infection and disease.A)
circulatory; immune
B)
endocrine; lympathic
C)
circulatory; excretory
Eliminate
D)
circulatory; respiratory

Answers

Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is A) Circulatory, immune.

Circulatory system also called cardiovascular system is a vast network of organs and vessels that allow the circulation of blood so as to transport nutrients, oxygen, other gases, and hormones to different parts of the body.

Blood contains different cells like white blood cells, red blood cells, platelets.

White blood cells ( also called leukocytes) work closely with immune system. They provide defense against pathogen ( disease causing organisms) through various ways ( like ingesting foreign material, producing antibodies to clear the antigens). By doing so, they protect us from infection and disease.
the answer is A)
circulatory; immune
