Picture the morphology of an average soapberry bug from a rain tree population and compare it to the morphology of its new food

source, balloon vine seeds. This average bug was taken from a population containing a range of sizes. (a) Are large, small or average bugs more likely to have relative fitness on the new food source?(b) List one change in bug morphology that you would reasonably expect in bug populations that have been living on golden rain trees. (c) List one change in behavior that you would reasonably expect in bug populations that have been living on golden rain trees.(d) Soapberry bugs are small relative to their host plants, and the bugs vary in their abilities to disperse. Although they have wings, many soapberry bugs have developed flight muscles and walk more often than they fly. In davis, where both balloon vines and golden rain trees are grown, would a dispersing bug likely have higher fitness than one with less developed flight muscles? Explain your answer.

Answer:

(a) In this case, small bugs are more likely to have relative fitness on the new food source.

(b) A change that will occur in bug morphology is that the female bugs will turn out to be the same size as the male bugs.

(c) In terms of behavior, the bugs will experience less competition towards reproducing early.

(d) Yes, the dispersing bug would have higher fitness as they will be able to easily get access to new resources once the previous one has run out, whereas the bugs with less developed fight muscles will not be able to do so.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

Savatey [412]

Answer:

Explanation:

Energy in _SUNLIGHT__ is absorbed by an electron in a photocenter. This energy is converted from light energy into chemical energy into kinetic energy as the energized electron is used in back to back REDOX reaction in the electron transport chain, ETC. The ETC creates _AN ENERGY GRADIENT__ which is used by the cell to power the formation of ATP. In _CYCLIC PHOSPHORYLATION__ (cyclic or noncylcic) the electron returns to the photocenter. In _NON-CYCLIC PHOSPHORYLATION__ (cyclic or non-cyclic), the electron reduces NADP+ to form _NADPH__.

Photophosporylation is the process of using light (photo) to produce ATP from ADP (phosphorylation i.e. addition of phosphorous). There are two types: cyclic and non-cyclic phosphorylation.

In non-cyclic phosphorylation, there are two photosystems (photocenter) involved, and electron is passed to NADP+.

In cyclic phosphorylation,  one photosystem is involved and the electron is not transferred to NADP+, it is circled back to the photosytem.

The reduced form of NADP+ is NADPH. (Remember that: reduction is defined as the addition of hydrogen)

Two forces F1 and F2 act on a particle. As a result the speed of the particle increases. Which one of the following is NOT possi
ddd [48]

Answer:

Option D, The work done by each force is negative

Explanation:

When both the forces are negative, then irrespective of which force is large or small, the net force will definitely negative. A negative force indicates reduction in kinetic energy of particle. Since mass is constant , it is the speed which reduces and produces negative work. Reduction in speed is contrasting to the statement give in the question. Hence, option D is not possible.
