You are studying a population of wild coyotes and notice that every three years there is an epidemic of a bacterial disease. Whi

ch of the following best explains this periodic cycling of the disease?
a) New coyotes are continuously born into the population.
b) Coyotes are dying from other causes over time.
c) During an outbreak, the proportion of coyotes who are sick with the disease slowly falls as they recover.
d) Coyotes from other populations, who have already caught and recovered from the disease, immigrate into the study population.

I think the answer would have to be D.
The reason I think that this would have to be the answer is because Coyotes from different populations would have encountered disease and most likely grow immune to them (the ones that survived) ad those coyotes could migrate to the other population of coyotes and those coyotes would get that disease.

When evacuating victims and endangered personnel in a severe emergency in relation to the support zone where should routes be di
Lorico [155]
When evacuating victims and personnel currently facing danger to their lives, an establishment should have a safe evacuation routes. The evacuation route should be placed in the Exclusion Zone which means that it is a large site with obstructions and not safe until the safety area is reached. Another would be developing the Contamination Reduction Zone which is designed for individuals that are facing chemical dangers. Decontamination while inside the building is inadvised but would be applied in the arrival to the said zone. An access to potential routes should be available. Obstructions like locks, blocked doors are inadvisable. Routes should be free from items that are not needed within the area. Also, multiple routes that are separated from each other is recommended for evacuating numerous amount of people at the same time or when fire blocks one, there would be another choice available.

Studentka2010 [4]
The answers are as follows:
1. <span>An inhibitor has a structure that is so similar to the substrate that it can bond to the enzyme just like the substrate: t</span>his is called competitive inhibitor. A competitive inhibitor will compete with the substrate for the active site of the enzyme and bind to the active site, thus incapacitating the substrate from binding to the active site.
2.  An inhibitor binds to a site on the enzyme that is not the active site: this is called non competitive inhibitors. Non competitive inhibitors bind to other site in the enzyme which is not the active site of the enzyme. The binding of the inhibitor changes the conformation of the enzyme as well as the active site, thus making it impossible for the substrate to bind to the enzyme effectively.
3. <span>usually, a(n) inhibitor forms a covalent bond with an amino acid side group within the active site, which prevents the substrate from entering the active site or prevents catalytic activity: this is called irreversible or permanent inhibition. Permanent inhibitors form covalent bonds with the enzyme and prevent substrate from binding to the enzyme.
4. T</span><span>he competitive inhibitor competes with the substrate for the ACTIVE SITE on the enzyme: The active site of an enzyme is the place where the substrate normally bind in order to activate a enzyme. Competitive inhibitors are those inhibitors that compete with the substrate for the active site of the enzyme and prevent the substrate from binding there.
5. W</span><span>hen the noncompetitive inhibitor is bonded to the enzyme, the shape of the ENZYME is distorted. The non competitive inhibitors are those inhibitors that bind to other places in the enzyme instead of the active site. The binding of the non competitive inhibitor usually distort the shape and the conformation of the enzyme thus preventing the substrate from binding to it effectively.
6. E</span><span>nzyme inhibitors disrupt normal interactions between an enzyme and its SUBSTRATE. The principal function of enzyme inhibitor is to prevent the substrate from binding to the appropriate enzyme. This is usually done in the human system in order to regulate the activities of enzymes.</span>

The building blocks of nucleic acids are ________.
jeyben [28]

Answer: The correct answer is nucleotide.

Explanation:

Nucleic acids are the polymer of nucleotides which are attached with each other with the help of phospho-diester bonds.

Nucleotide consists of sugar (ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA), phosphate group, and nitrogenous base (A, T, G, and in DNA; and A, U, G, and C in RNA).

Compare mechanical, chemical, and legislative control to the use of nonnative species as a control method.
just olya [345]
Non native species are organisms that do not naturally occur in a given area. They may have been transferred either accidentally or deliberately from their place of origin to the new area through human activities.

Non native species may become invasive species if they cause harm to the economy, human health, or environment.

Control methods used to eliminate invasive species are:
1) mechanical - physically removing the invasive species or changing the habitat condition of the affected area.
2) chemical - using of pesticides, fungicides, or herbicides to kill off invasive species.
3) legislative - introducing the natural enemy of the invasive species. It may be a predator or parasite that is from its native range.
