Answer:

Depending on the magnitude of the hurricane, the distribution and abundance of organisms can be transformed in one day. For example, some species of trees can be extinguished from the island because they do not resist the massive entry of salt water. For many species hurricanes are high risk factors that decrease diversity because strong winds and rains directly affected them

Biodiversity can also be affected in a positive way in some cases, for example, the fall of trees and the formation of clearings results in an increase in the germination of seeds of tree species. However, if the fall is massive in times of drought, the fires resulting from the burning of dry biomass will be increased, which negatively affects diversity.

Which of the following is a part of the diencephalon.
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

d. all of the above

Explanation:

The diencephalon is a part of the brain located inferiorly and anteriorly to the corpus callosum, part of the telencephalon, and superior to the midbrain, delimited by the latter by an imaginary line that runs from the nipple to the posterior commissure (epithalamus). The diencephalon consists of: thalamus, hypothalamus, epithalamus, metatalamus and subthalamus. For this reason, we can conclude that the correct answer to your question is "d. All of the above".

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

<em>The genotype of the mother will be Bb.</em>

Explanation:

A punnet square can be described as a diagram which is made to depict the outcome of a cross.

In the scenario discussed in the question, the genotype of the male parent will be bY. This is because he has the recessive black spots. As he is a male, he'll only have one allele for this gene.

In order to have one of spot design for each gender, the mother will have the genotype  Bb.

The punnet square will be as follows:

        b          Y

B   Bb         BY

b   bb         bY

When testing the temperature of catalase, why did the enzyme catalase work best at 37°C? (Select all that apply.)
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

The correct answers are: B) Catalase works best at human body temperature, C) Normal human body temperature is 98.6°F, which equals 37°C.

Explanation:

Catalase is an enzyme found in our bodies that has the important task of <u>breaking down hydrogen peroxide</u>, a molecule that is very toxic. For catalase to work at its optimus speed, it need the body to have a temperature of 37° celsius -98.6°F-, which is what we normally call <em>human body temperature</em>. If the temperature rises or falls below body temperature, catalase will still work but at a much slower rate, until it stops working completely.

Not all enzymes work best at human body temperature, some enzymes reach their optimus state at higher or lower temperatures; but it is important to remember that enzymes are proteins, and proteins denaturalize when the temperature becomes to high, making them lose their shape and function.
