The omnivorous flock will eat the most as it eats both insects and seeds. With the removal of fruit it will not be affected much.

The herbivorous flock will eat the least as it has the option to eat seeds only after the removal of fruit.

Explanation:

Let us take the example of Finches. Finches have many different species with different variations adaptable to conditions favorable as per availability of the type of food.

Lets say -

Species X and Y is provided with insects, seeds and fruit.

Species X - Omnivorous

Species Y - Herbivorous

The species X will be able to eat the most as it is an Omnivore.

The omnivorous flock will eat the most as it eats both insects and seeds. With the removal of fruit it will not be affected much.

Species Y will be able to eat the least as it is an herbivore.

The herbivorous flock will eat the least as it has the option to eat seeds only after the removal of fruit.

Which of the following is the correct sequence, going from simplest to most complex, in the levels of structural organization of
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

Cellular organization is one of the characteristics of life that states that each living organism is made up cell or more than one cell, that is made up by organization of various components such as chemicals like micro molecule that form the macro molecule and these chemical level structural organization is formed together to make cells and this level of organization makes the tissue which is complex to cell but simpler to organ that is makeup of various together.

The makeup of organs is necessary as organs are the structural level that individuals facilitate the function and make up the organ system that is a complex system made up of organs that are similar in their function. The organism is the most complex of all levels.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Alkaptonuria is an infrequent autosomal recessive condition. It is first noticed in newborns when the urine in their diapers tur
Arisa [49]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Let the disorder be represented by the allele a.

Since the disease is an autosomal recessive one, affected individuals will have the genotype aa and normal individuals will have the genotype Aa or AA.

Since the four adults are carriers, their genotypes would be Aa.

                    Aa     x     Aa

Progeny:    AA    2Aa    aa

Probability of being affected = 1/4

Probability of being a carrier = 1/2

Probability of not being affected = 3/4

(a) The chance that the child second child of Mary and Frank will have alkaptonuria = 1/2

(b) The chance that  the third child of Sara and James will be free of the condition = 3/4

(c)

(d) If someone has no family history of the disorder, their genotype would be AA.

                 AA     x     aa

                        4 Aa

<em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history </em>= 0

(e)

(f) <em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history</em> = 0

Which term describes the breaking down of body cells or substances?
Alex777 [14]
The term which describes the breaking down of body cells or substance is CATABOLISM.
The metabolic processes which occur in living things are of two types, these are anabolic and catabolic processes. The anabolic process involves the building up of needed materials in the body while the catabolic process involves the breaking down of waste materials in the body in order to eliminate them through excretion.

If a muscle fiber were to suddenly and permanently stop producing ATP the fiber would no longer be able to actively transport ca
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

A. Calcium would be transported to the sarcoplasmic reticulum therefore contractions would cease.

Explanation:

A muscle fibre will stop contraction immediately ATP is used up. Also, muscle contraction will end as soon as the information from the motor neuron stops. This repolarizes the sarcolemma and T-tubules, thereby closing the voltage-gated calcium channels in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Calcium ions are then pumped back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, in order for tropomyosin to cover the binding sites on the actin strands again.

What 2 chemicals are inside skeletal muscle?
marta [7]

Answer:

Skeletal muscle tissue is composed of cells called muscle fibers. When the nervous system signal reaches the neuromuscular junction a chemical message is released by the motor neuron. The chemical message, a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine, binds to receptors on the outside of the muscle fiber.
