Answer:

D. the total volume of fossil fuels, fertilizer, fresh water, and other resources that are needed to provide the food

Explanation:

Jamie's ecological footprint shall be determined by the volume of ecology affecting inputs used.

For instance, the amount of clean water to be used shall impact on the water supply given that clean water is a scarce resource.

Fertilizer affects the ecology negatively by draining harmful chemical compounds into the soil, so the lesser of this used, the better the ecological footprint she leaves.

The ability of one or more organisms in a population to tolerate a chemical such as a pesticide or antibiotic designed to kill i
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is- Resistance

Explanation:

The ability of any organism in a population to tolerate a chemical like insecticide, pesticide or antibiotic which is designed to kill it or slow its reproduction is called resistance.

For example, the antibiotic resistance is seen in some bacteria like MRSA(Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus). They gain this resistance because they have some variant traits in their genome which provide them resistance against these chemicals.  

These individual are selected through natural selection when the environmental condition changes and become adverse. So the correct answer is resistance.

The transport of molecules of a particular solute from inside an animal cell across the cell membrane to the extracellular fluid
Leona [35]

Answer:

the concentration of the solute is lower inside the cell than outside it

Explanation:

This question depicts the process of ACTIVE TRANSPORT, which is the movement of a substance against concentration gradient, hence, requires energy input (ATP) to occur. In this case, transporting a solute from inside an animal cell to the extracellular fluid across the cell membrane always requires energy.

This is because the concentration of solute inside the cell is much lower than that of the extracellular fluid, hence, to move the solutes against this concentration gradient (low to high), energy in form of ATP is required.
