the answer for this question is seed
Explanation:
Answer: 41.5 OMGs is the predicted mean cuteness in the next generation.
Explanation:
Cuteness is a way to measure relative ability of individuals with a certain genotype to reproduce successfully.
Mean cuteness is given as the summation of individual cuteness. Mean cuteness also changes in the next generation.
The mean cuteness of the current herd was given as 39.7 OMGs and after 16 individuals were chosen, the mean was given as 41.5.
This implies that there was a change already as mean cuteness will either increase or decrease in the next generation after selection. Here, 39.7 increased to 41.5 .
The predicted mean cuteness is therefore 41.5 OMGs.
<span>Let the equation be : at^2 + bt + c = P,
where t = time (hrs),
P = population (1000's).
When t = 1, P = 3.03.
When t = 2, P = 1.72.
When t = 3, P = 1.17.
Substitute these into the equation to obtain these 3 simultaneous equations :
a + b + c = 3.03
4a + 2b + c = 1.72
9a + 3b = c = 1.17
Solving gives :
a = 0.38,
b = -2.45,
c = 5.1.
The equation is therefore,
P = 0.38t^2 - 2.45t + 5.1
Testing with t = 0 to 6 gives the population values as provided,
so it seems to be a valid model.
At t = 9 hrs,
P = 0.38*9^2 - 2.45*9 + 5.1
= 13.83.</span>
The correct answers are <span>by adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere by using natural resources, by polluting the land, water, and air, by creating landfills and by introducing invasive species to the environment.
Adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere contributes to the rise of the global temperature and climate change which leads to the rise in sea level, and extreme weather conditions.
By polluting the land water and air and creating landfills humans are destroying not only the habitat of many plants, animals, and other organisms but also for themselves.
Overexploitation of the natural resources also leads to the destruction of habitat and collapse of ecosystems.
The introduction of invasive species often leads to disruption of the food chain of an ecosystem since the invasive species might be more efficient in this habitat and suppress the native organisms.
