Carbohydrates are the main sources of energy for most organisms. However, some carbohydrates can also be used as structural mate

rials in plants. What benefit do animals receive when they consume these carbohydrates?
A. The structural carbohydrates transfer their raw materials into the animal cells, so they can grow cell walls.
B. Animals are able to release more water when the structural carbohydrates reinforce their cell membranes.
C. The fiber in the structural carbohydrates stimulates the animals' digestive systems.
D. Energy can be stored in the structural carbohydrates for long-term usage in the animal cells.

C:<span>Cellulose is the primary structural carbohydrate found in plant cell walls. Only a few animals have a limited ability to digest cellulose. However, </span>the fiber in the structural carbohydrates stimulates the animals' digestive systems<span>, so stools stay softer and move more quickly through the intestinal tract. This helps to prevent constipation and encourages regular defecation.</span>

Forskolin is a drug used by scientists to render adenylyl cyclase (AC) constitutively (always) active. What will this do to to P
Paul [167]

Answer:

Both the PKA and IP3 levels increases. Hence, the correct answer is a and b.

Explanation:

Forskolin refers to a drug that increases the levels of cAMP or cyclic AMP by stimulating the enzyme adenylyl cyclase. The cAMP is an essential secondary messenger that ensures proper biological response of cells to hormones and other signals and also takes part in communication between the cells.  

When Forskolin increases the levels of cAMP, it will stimulate the enzyme PKA or protein kinase A and at the same time also enhances the intracellular concentration of Ca2+ and IP3 (inositol 1,2,5 triphosphate).

What is the most likely niche partitioning mechanism for the four Mpala herbivores? Support your claim with evidence.
Triss [41]

Answer:

An organism’s niche is its place and role in an ecosystem, including where it lives and how it obtains

the resources it needs to survive. If competing species use the environment differently, or partition

resources, they can coexist in the same area; niche partitioning facilitates coexistence of similar

species in a habitat. In this activity, students use data presented in the HHMI 2015 Holiday Lecture

“How Species Coexist” to explore the concept of niche partitioning, learn about mechanisms of niche

partitioning, and consider the classic grazer-browser spectrum paradigm in light of new dietary data

obtained from DNA metabarcoding.

Living organisms release energy gradually. why?
MArishka [77]

Answer:Living organisms release energy gradually to prevent most of the energy from heat loss. The cells release the chemical energy present in food and it should be utilized gradually to prevent the energy loss in the form of heat and light.Most of the energy released by the body is through cellular respiration.The energy is produced by the continuous process that occurs in the body ,breakdown of food and energy production.If a huge amount of energy will be released from the body it will only be in the form of heat loss so to prevent the energy from lost in the form of heat living organism release energy gradually

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

All the different plant populations make up the plant<u><em> community</em></u>  in this swamp. The plants are part of the bigger <u><em>ecosystem</em></u>, that contains many biotic and abiotic factors.

Explanation:

In ecological studies a community can be described as a different population of species that live in an area at a specific time. For example, different kinds of plants and animals living in an area at a particular time.

In ecological studies, an ecosystem can be described as a community possessing both its biotic and abiotic factors. For example, all the animals, plants, decomposers of a community along with abiotic factors like water, soil sunlight etc.
