Answer:

endergonic, positive

Explanation:

<u>An endergonic reaction is the one which in which energy is consumed. </u>Synthesis of ATP occurs in the inner mitochondrial membrane but it does not happen on its own i.e. this reaction is not spontaneous and therefore this reaction has a positive δg. δg is negative only for those reactions which are spontaneous. <u>The production of ATP from adp and pi (inorganic phosphorus) which is an unfavorable reaction can be made favorable by coupling it with electron transport chain (ETS) which is a favorable reaction.</u> During ETS, H⁺ are pumped from higher concentration to lower concentration with the help of reverse pumps. Since moving molecules/ionic species from higher concentration to lower concentration is a spontaneous process, energy rather than getting consumed gets produced during ETS. This is the reason why δg for pumping  H⁺ is negative.

<u>Synthesis of ATP has positive δg but when it is coupled with ETS which has negative δg, the overall δg for ATP synthesis becomes negative. </u>

The entire process of manufacturing energy is known as oxidative phosphorylation, which takes place in the mitochondria, where ATP synthase enzyme is situated in the inner mitochondrial membrane and the F1-component protrudes into the mitochondrial matrix.  

In the process, ADP combines with a phosphate to produce ATP. The energy liberated due to the hydrolysis of ATP into ADP is utilized to do cellular function, generally by coupling the exergonic reaction of the hydrolysis of ATP with the endergonic reactions.  

The synthesis of ATP from ADP and Pi is an endergonic reaction with positive delta G.

Ground squirrels are found in many areas of the United States. They live in underground burrows and are often attacked by birds
Ket [755]

The population of the ground squirrels will be limited by the population of the hawks. The population of the hawks, thus, will be a limiting factor for the population of the ground squirrels. The Hawks are the birds of prey that feeds on squirrels. With the increased number of hawks in the same area as them will put these squirrels in danger. The population of the tree squirrels, however, will have no affect on the population of the ground squirrels. The genetic variability and breeding season are not limiting factors for their population either.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option B - a population of hawks'.

Salamanders, ospreys, snapping turtles, and beavers all live in aquatic habitats. Salamanders lay their eggs in small freshwater
AveGali [126]

Answer:

A. Salamanders

Explanation:

Specialists species are species that can thrive in a unique and limited range of resources. They require a specific environmental condition to reproduce and survive in  environment and also have limited or few diets they need for nutrition. These limiting characteristics put them at a disadvantage of being endangered and threatened.  

Salamanders are endangered species that are fast going into extinction. They require wetland (freshwater pools) for reproduction to be possible, and feed mainly on insects. This makes them specialist species.

Ospreys, snapping turtles, and beavers are all generalist species. They can all thrive in a wide range of environmental conditions, and also have varieties of diets they can get nutrition from to survive.

Develop a hypothesis to explain why you think eurypterids developed legs even though they lived on the ocean floor.
expeople1 [14]

I think that since it lives on the ocean floor, at the deepest of the ocean. So anyway, the fin on the Eurypterids is still necessary but not that much, since they live on the ocean floor. Their movements mostly on the ocean floor. So fin would not help them "stick" to the floor. Also there are still gravity acts on the Eurypterids and the feet would help them move faster. Hope this helps.

According to the article, how does human activity affect the availability of food for deer populations? What result does this ha
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Human activity affects the availability of food for deer populations in many ways. Hundreds of years ago, dear were very rare but now more civilization has occurred making more food for dear in the gardens outside of peoples houses. Also, people have started to kill organisms that they found harmful to themselves, causing the dear population not to decrease, but stay the same and reproduce.

Explanation:

Hope this helps!
