<span>Increased activity of merocrine sweat glands

Merocrine refers to the exocrine glands (or cells) whose secretions are excreted outside of the cell from the secretory cells, then into an epithelial-walled duct(s), and finally onto the surface of the body. Merocrine secretions from the sweat glands are specifically called eccrine. 

Sweat glands are structures of the skin that produce sweat in order to cool the body upon evaporation of the sweat. As a person grows older, his sweat glands become less active. This could impair perspiration or sweating, and increases the risks of overheating in the elderly. </span>

<span>The action of Helicase is to create replication forks and replication bubbles. Helicase is the first step in the DNA replication process. Helicase is an enzyme that breaks the hydrogen bond between the parental DNA to free the DNA double helix. The area where it unwinds is called as replication fork.</span>

Fill in the missing words. naturalselection foundereffect geographicallyisolated species evolution
grandymaker [24]

Hi!


The ancestral finch founded a new population on one of the Hawaiian Islands. Due to the founder effect , allele frequencies of the first small population on one of the islands could have differed from their continental goldfinch-like ancestors. The process of natural selection resulted in adaptation and evolution of the island population into a new species over time. Some of the birds crossed to some of the other islands where they were geographically isolated and evolved into more species occupying different niches.


In terms of population genetics, founder effect is when there is a loss of genetic diversity as a result of the establishment of a new population by a relatively few individuals. Following such an establishment, natural selection is the process  which results in the genes of the fittest individuals of the population being selected over generations. This process ultimately results in evolution, and over time may give rise to new species. Geographical isolation is the physical separation of a population from another owing to geographical changes in the terrain or area. If two populations of the same species are geographically isolated, there is a great chance over time they may evolve into two different species.


Hope this helps!

Match each component of biodiversity to the example of how it contributes to ecosystem stability.
professor190 [17]

Answer:  

Genetic diversity: Some individuals in a population of wild rabbits are resistant to a new disease.

Ecosystem diversity: If the population of wild rabbits decreases, a bobcat can switch its diet to squirrels or woodchucks.  

Species diversity:  Populations of wild rabbits from a forest and from a neighboring meadow can interbreed, which increases variation.  

Biodiversity of an ecosystem is usually explored by three diversities which are responsible for ecosystem stability they are : genetic diversity, ecosystem diversity and species diversity.

Genetic diversity is the variety of genes within a population of species. Each species consists of individuals bearing different genetic composition. Some individuals in a population of wild rabbits are resistant to a new disease because they exhibit genetic diversity within the population as a consequence some individuals exhibit genes which protect them against new disease.

Species diversity is the variety of species within an ecosystem. Populations of wild rabbits from a forest and from a neighboring meadow can interbreed, which increases variation is an example of species diversity. The wild rabbits from a forest and a neighboring meadow are two species living in an ecosystem stating the diversity of species in an ecosystem.

Ecosystem diversity is the variety of ecosystems in a given region.If the population of wild rabbits decreases, a bobcat can switch its diet to squirrels or woodchucks is an example of ecosystem diversity because in an ecosystem there is interaction of organisms as predator prey relationship. This example is also relating with predator prey relationships in an ecosystem.
