Answer:

A. clear cutting the rainforest

Explanation:

In ecology, density independent factors are defined as the factors that influences birth or death rates of a population, regardless of the population density.

Density independent factors generally include physical factors of environment and are unrelated to the size of the population.

Density-independent regulator of population growth of poison dart frogs in the rainforest will be affected by clear cutting the rainforest because if the animal will loss its habitat and the required condition to live which is rainforest, it will unable to survive which will lead to increase in death rates of poison dart frogs.

Hence, clear cutting of raiforest leads to loss of habitat as well as its food resources, the correct answer is A.

Which statement correctly describes the nuclear envelope of a eukaryotic cell? See Concept 6.3 (Page 102) View Available Hint(s)
netineya [11]

The correct answer is: The nuclear envelope is continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum

The nuclear envelope or nuclear membrane is composed of two phospholipid bilayers (outer and inner) that surround the nucleus in the eukaryotic cell. The space between the outer and inner membranes is called the perinuclear space. The nuclear envelop has nuclear pores that are responsible for the transport between nucleus and cytoplasm (e.g. transport of mRNA).

lora16 [44]

Answer:

The claim by the researcher is supported because of the known functions of insulin and growth factors. Both hormones have a tendency to respond to the presence of glucose. The growth hormone initiates STAT5 signaling for producing the Igf-1 factor that is important for utilizing glucose. The insulin hormone is well known for utilizing glucose.
