What happens to the carrying capacity for insectivorous birds in winter in a northern New York forest?

Answer:

The correct option would be A. It drops quickly to zero once the temperature goes below freezing.

Carrying capacity is defined as the number of organisms (animals, plants, crops, or birds) a region can support without getting degraded.

The temperature in the northern New York forest can drop below freezing during winters. Due to this, insects either migrate the place or spend winters as eggs, larvae, nymphs, or pupae.

It resulted in the unavailability of insects or food for insectivorous birds due to which carrying capacity of a region quickly drops to zero.

A mutation in a gene in the fruit fly Drosophila was found to affect eye color. The protein affected was found to be completely
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

The correct option is D. A reasonable explanation for the change in levels of protein is that the mutation occurs in the promoter of the gene, within several hundred base pairs of the start of transcription.

Explanation:

In genetics, a promoter can be described as a region where the RNA polymerase binds initially and starts transcription. The promoter is usually present near to the gene that has to be transcribed. The rate of transcription is controlled by the promoter region too. Hence, the correct option is D. The promoter region for the eye colour was changed due to mutation.

Other options are false because a change in a codon or base pair would have changed proteins being formed and would not have slowed the process.

The circularly arranged smooth muscle fibers in the highlighted structure perform which function?
puteri [66]

Answer:constriction of pupil

Explanation:the circularly arranged smooth muscle fibers in the highlighted structure ie the iris causes constriction of the pupil.

The iris basically has ciliary muscles that control Lens shape ,this happens when the ciliary muscles under the signal of the parasympathetic nervous system contract leading to the constriction of the pupil and when these muscles relax then dilation of the pupil will occur

A student prepared a slide of pollen grains from a flower. First the pollen was viewed through the low-power objective lens and
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

(2) low power: 100 small pollen grains

high power: 25 large pollen grains

Explanation:

Compound light microscopes are devices used to greatly magnify objects. They have several objective lenses, a low-power lens magnifies 10 times (10X) the objects, and the high-power lens magnifies them 40 times (40X).

For that reason, when observing the pollen grains with the high-power lens the student will see them bigger than with the low-power lens. However, the field of view (the visible area through a lens) is reduced when a higher power lens is used, so fewer pollen grains will be seen.

The answer therefore is the option of higher number of pollen grains of small size for the low-power lens, and lower number of pollen grains of larger size for the high-power lens.
