Researchers are studying lichens growing on trees in a forest ecosystem. At the beginning of the study, the researchers identifi

ed twelve lichen species in the forest. Later, a forest fire happened in the study area. The researchers returned to the area and found only six lichen species. What inference is best supported from the researchers observations?

Answer:

They can infere that the surviving six lichen species are either genetically adapted to be fire resistant, or they recover very fast from an inferno situation. Whereas the other six that were wiped out were not adapted for these situations.

iragen [17]

Explanation:

This statement is correct because the concept of integrating body and mind in physical activity was responsible for the expansion of physical activity, in addition to activities that promote only the well-being of the body aesthetically, but as a set of activities responsible for improvement of health, intelligence, emotional, creativity, as well as an instrument of social integration. The practice of physical activity releases endorphins in the brain, which is a natural substance produced by the brain that is associated with well-being, mood and joy, and this effect occurs during and after physical activity.

Why is it wrong to say that bread is a compound?
tatiyna

Explanation:

Bread cannot be classified as a compound. Compounds are formed when two or more substances are bonded together chemically, however, mixtures are not chemically bonded.

Bread is a mixture of several compounds such as sugars, proteins, lipids and gases along with a culture of organisms or chemical leavEning agaent. Several of these components

Explanation:

Large chains of monomers form biological macromolecules which carry out many essential functions in the body these can include nucleic acids, carbohydrates, proteins and lipids. These are organic molecules, meaning they're ringed or long-chain Carbons bonded to the elements oxygen (O), hydrogen (H), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P).

  • Proteins are structural support molecules comprised of long chains of amino acids joined via peptide (CONH) bonds; these are 20 specific units that are arranged into several macromolecules. Amino acids are absorbed through digestion and are incorporated into the body’s cells to make up organs muscles signal molecules and an alternative energy source.                                                                 Basic makeup: C, H, O, N, S; polar C, O double bonds and N-H bonding
  • Carbohydrates function to supply energy and support molecules they consist of mainly sugars or starches in long chains and rings to form monosaccharide monomers. They include monosaccharides, disaccharides and polysaccharides which describes the type of bonding and the degree of complexity of the polymers.                Basic makeup: C, H, O -with many polar OH groups
  • Lipids function as energy storage and chemical messengers, these include fats, saturated and unsaturated fatty acids with double bonds and steroids and waxes. However, lipids are comprised of fatty acids and glycerol; they do not contain a fixed set of monomers, and unlike the other biological macromolecules, they are not polymers. The arrangement of hydrophobic heads and hydrophobic fatty acid tails can give these non-polar macromolecules hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties.                                                                     Basic makeup: C, H, O; non polar- a triple condensation reaction produces the molecules from a triple hydroxyl (OH) alcohol bonded to three long-chain carboxylic acids.

Which combination of items below is INCORRECT? decomposers – bacteria and fungi pioneer community – lichens and mosses commensal
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

<u>Option:</u>Symbiosis in which both organisms benefit ecological niche.

Explanation:

  • <u>Symbiotic association between any living organism:</u>

The symbiotic association is the connection between any organisms, which are either benefited by each other or the relationship can be very negative for the either one, or it may be neutral in nature for both the organisms living inside a symbiotic relationship.

The symbiotic association between the different organisms are of four different natures or levels,which are as follows:

  1. <u>Mutualism:</u> Inside the relationship or connection between any number of organisms in which there is mutual benefit for both the organisms, is called as the mutualism. For example, the insecticides living in the plants roots or any part of its body.
  2. <u>Parasitism:</u>Such a symbiotic relationship is which between any two living organism either one of them is benefited while the other one is harmed by its effect. For example, the tape worms in the living body.
  3. <u>Predation:</u> It is more simple to understand as the prey is hunted down and killed in order to fulfill the needs of the predator.For example the lion and the impala.
  4. <u>Commensalism: </u>The type of association between the living organism in which one of the organism is benefited, while other is neither benefited nor harmed. For example the marine life on the back of the crab's body.

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.
