Describe how decomposers link the living and non-living parts of an ecosystem

Answers


Decomposers are living organisms that breaks down other living and non-living things into smaller parts.

Decomposers can recycle dead plants and animals into chemical nutrients such as carbon and nitrogen that are released back into the soil, air and water as food for living plants and animals.
Decomposers are living organisms that breaks down other living and non-living things into smaller parts. ... Decomposers can recycle dead plants and animals into chemical nutrients such as carbon and nitrogen that are released back into the soil, air and water as food for living plants and animals.

Decomposers play a critical role in the flow of energy through an ecosystem. They break apart dead organisms into simpler inorganic materials, making nutrients available to primary producers.

Decomposers, such as bacteria, fungi, termites, and earthworms, are scavengers that feed on the organic material found in dead producers and consumers. They break down the organic material to the nutrient level. Nutrients in soils are essential for producers to grow. Nutrients include nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorous. Thus, dead consumers (and producers) are recycled back into new producers.

Describe the metabolic pathways in the monarch butterfly that take advantage of milkweed nectar to convert it into an energy currency.

Answers

Answer:

Metabolic pathways in monarch butterflies are as follows:

GlycolysisKreb's cycleOxidative phosphorylation

Explanation:

They convert sugar which they obtain from nectar into fats that they store as source of energy. Monarch have a little layer of fatty tissues which aid in conversion of Sugar in to fat.

They consume the stored fat during reproduction. A lot of fat is eventually converted to eggs and some of it is used to provide energy just to sustain the reproductive butterflies.

During winter season, when their metabolic is low they consume energy by converting stored fat into sugar called Trehalose.  The conversion of fat also releases little water which help them to survive during winter.

1) Glycolysis:

Glucose is phosphorylated by hexokinase enzyme to give glucose-6phosphate. This glucose-6-phosphate enters into glycolysis and is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate in a series of ten reactions. During glycolysis net two molecules of ATP are synthesised per glucose molecule. Moreover, two molecules of NADH+H+ are also synthesised. In aerobic organisms like monarch butterfly the pyruvate is again oxidised to give acetyl-CoA in the mitochondria. The enzyme responsible for this oxidation is Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex. This reaction occurs in the mitochondrial matrix. Here one CO2 molecule is removed from the pyruvate and one NADH is produced.

2. Kreb's Cycle:

The acetyl-CoA formed enters into the Kreb's cycle by condensing with oxaloacetate. In Kreb's cycle acetyl-CoA is completely oxidised to give carbon dioxide in eight enzymatic reactions. During Kreb's cycle NADH, FADH2 and one molecule of GTP is produced and oxaloacetate is regenerated to continue the cycle.

3. Oxidative Phosphorylation:

The NADH produced in the glycolysis and Krebs cycle and FADH2 produced during Krebs cycle are now oxidised to generate proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. This gradient is generated when the electrons from the reduced NADH and FADH2 are transported in the electron transport chain(ETC), and are finally accepted by the oxygen.

When the electrons are picked up by the complexes of the ETC they pick protons from the matrix. When the electrons are transferred to next complex the protons are transferred to the inter-membrane space. In this way a proton gradient is generated across the innner membrane of the mitochondria.

This proton gradient is used by the complex V of the ETC. This complex is the enzyme ATP Synthase. This enzyme complex is located in the inner mitochondrial membrane. When the protons flow back from the inter-membrane space into the matrix along the concentration gradient , they move through the channel in the ATP Synthase Complex. When these protons flow through this complex it catalyzes the phosphorylation of ADP to give ATP, the energy currency.

The fructose component of the sucrose is first converted into glycogen and then broken down to give glucose-1-phosphate, which enters into glycolysis.

Sucrose cannot enter the pathway of glycolysis as such. It is first hydrolysed to glucose and fructose as described above along with the path way.

Explanation:

In the population of plant K, each plant has only red flowers or only white flowers. A farmer collected the seeds from plant K with red flowers to grow new plants. Explain why the new plants will have only red flowers

Answers

Answer:

nose

Explanation:

nosenosenosenosenosenosenosenosenosenosenose

The new plants will have only red flowers because the trait for red flowers is determined by a dominant gene, and all the plants in population K have the same homozygous genotype for the flower color.

In genetics, the flower color trait in population K is determined by genes present in the plants' DNA. There are two alleles, or gene variants, for the flower color: one for red flowers (let's call it R) and one for white flowers (let's call it r). The gene for red flowers (R) is dominant, meaning that even if only one copy of the gene is present in an individual's genotype (heterozygous), it will produce the red flower phenotype. On the other hand, the gene for white flowers (r) is recessive, which means it will only produce the white flower phenotype if two copies are present in the genotype (homozygous recessive).

In population K, all the plants have only red flowers, indicating that they must have the genotype RR. Since all the plants are homozygous for the dominant red flower gene (RR), when they reproduce, they can only pass on the dominant allele R to their offspring. As a result, all the new plants that grow from the seeds collected from these plants will also have the genotype RR and, therefore, express the red flower phenotype.

Since there are no plants in population K with the genotype rr (homozygous recessive), which is necessary for white flowers, there is no chance of white-flowered plants appearing in the new generation. Thus, the new plants will have only red flowers due to the uniformity of the homozygous dominant genotype in the original population.

Why do you think the parts of the body have different sensitivities? Write an argument to support your explanation.​

Answers

The four senses of sight, hearing, smell, and taste are located in specific parts of the body.

The sense of touch is located throughout the body, in your largest organ, the skin. The sense of touch originatees in the bottom layer of your skin called the dermis.

The dermis is filled with many tiny nerve endings that give you information about the things your body is touching. Nerve endings do this by carrying the information to the spinal cord, which sends messages to the brain where the feeling is registered.

The nerve endings in your skin can tell you if something is hot or cold. They can also feel if something is hurting you. Your body has about twenty different types of nerve endings that all send messages to your brain. However, the most common receptors are heat, cold, pain, and pressure or touch receptors. Pain receptors are probably the most important for your safety because they can protect you by warning your brain that your body is hurt.

Some areas of the body are more sensitive than others because they have more nerve endings. It hurts when you bite your tongue because the sides of your tongue have a lot of nerve endings that are very sensitive to pain. Your tongue, however, is not as good at sensing hot or cold. That is why it is easy to burn your mouth when you eat something really hot. Your fingertips are also very sensitive. People who are blind use their fingertips to read Braille by feeling the patterns of raised dots on their paper.

Lactobacillus in yogurt, some Escherichia coli in the intestines of humans and animals, and Rhizobium that fixes atmosphere nitrogen are all considered beneficial bacteria. Select an answer and submit. For keyboard navigation, use the up/down arrow keys to select an answer. a True b False

Answers

Answer: a. True.

Explanation:

Lactobacillus is a genus of gram-positive, facultative or microaerophilic bacteria that produce lactic acid. They are normally found in different parts of the body such as the mouth, digestive tract and vagina. Lactobacilli usually do not cause disease, although they can cause dental caries. Some lactobacilli have a homofermentative metabolism, that is, they produce lactic acid from sugars, which makes their environment acidic and inhibits the growth of pathogenic bacteria. Some species of Lactobacillus are used in the industry for the production of yogurt, cheese and other fermented foods.

Escherichia coli is a bacterium that is part of the microbiota of the gastrointestinal tract of various animals. It is a gram-negative bacillus, facultative anaerobe, and the most abundant commensal of the microbiota of the gastrointestinal tract where, together with other microorganisms, it is essential for the correct functioning of the digestive process. It also participates in the production of B and K vitamins.

Rhizobium is a genus of gram-negative soil bacteria that fix atmospheric nitrogen and live in symbiosis with certain plants (such as leguminous plants) in their roots, after a process of infection induced by the plant itself through the secretion of lectin, to which they provide the nitrogen necessary for the plant to live and which in return gives it shelter. Fixation is the combination of molecular nitrogen (N2) with hydrogen or oxygen to give ammonium or oxides that are incorporated into the biosphere. Molecular nitrogen, which is the major component of the atmosphere, is inert and not directly usable by most living things. Therefore, it involves the incorporation of a significant amount of nitrogen into the biosphere.

Therefore, all three are considered beneficial.

D. Water is the most abundant atom in Earth’s atmosphere.
E. Water and ice vary in density.

Answers

Answer:

D. Water is the most abundant atom in Earth’s atmosphere.

Explanation:

An atom can be defined as the smallest particle of an element (e.g., oxygen, hydrogen, etc). Water is a molecule (H2O) because its atoms are connected by molecular bonds (i.e., water is not an atom). Water is the most abundant molecule on the Earth's surface which covers more than 70 percent of the world's surface. A water molecule contains one oxygen (O) and two hydrogen (H2) atoms which are connected by covalent bonds. Water is also a compound known as a diatomic molecule, i.e., a molecule composed of two atoms of the same type.

Answers

Answer:

3/32 ttyyR-  

Explanation:

Cross: Tall, Yellow, Rounded individuals with a tall, green, rounded individual

Parentals) TtYyRr      x      TtyyRr      

Gametes) TYR, TyR, TYr, Tyr, tYR, tyR, tYr, tyr (Parent one)

                 TyR, TyR, Tyr, Tyr, tyR, tyR, tyr, tyr (Parent two)

We need to know what proportion of offspring is expected to be short plants with round, green seeds. So we need to identify the gametes for these traits. The genotypes are:

Shot → ttRound → RR or RrGreen → yy

⇒ Parent one can provide gametes tyR and tyr

⇒ Parent two can provide gametes tyR and tyr

(1/8 tyR x 2/8 tyR) + (1/8 tyR x 2/8 tyr) + (1/8 tyr x 2/8 tyR) =

2/64 ttyyRR + 2/64 ttyyRr + 2/64 ttyyRr =

1/32 ttyyRR + 2/32 ttyyRr =

3/32 ttyyR-          

The branch of science which deals with the gene and inheritance is called biology.

The correct answer is 3/32.

The gametes formed by the parents is as follows:-

TYR, TYr, TyR, Tyr,  tYR, tYr, tyR, tyr is gamete of motherTYR, TYr, TyR, Tyr,  tYR, tYr, tyR, tyr is gamete of father.

According to the law of inheritance it stated that the each gamete can fused with any gamete to increase the chances of variation.

Hence, after the crossing the number of offspring will form is 32.

Therefore the offspring which has a short plant with a round green seed is 3/32.

Hence, the correct answer is 3/32.

In Wakanda, in a population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the frequency of the single recessive allele controlling vibranium assimilation, which affects superhuman abilities, is 0.2. What is the percentage of the population that is heterozygous for this allele

Answers

Answer:

32%

Explanation:

Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium is also known as Hardy–Weinberg law. The idea of Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium is about the frequency of alleles in a population. The frequency of an allele in the population will always remain the same in a population if that population is not influenced by any evolutionary consequences.

Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium binomial expression formula is p2+2pq+q2=1. Suppose the frequency of recessive allele = q.

and another normal allele is = p

Here Q = 0.2 so P will be 1- Q or 0.8

By Hardy–Weinberg equation p2+2pq+q2=1, Here 2pq denotes the frequency of recessive allele, so 2pq = 2 × 0.2 × 0.8 = 0.32, if converted into percentage it will be 32%.

C. Initiation factors position the mRNA accordingly.
D. The small ribosomal subunit starts at the far 5' end of mRNA where the start codon is located.

Answers

Answer:

approximately 15 seconds

A. Shine-Dalgarno sequence

Explanation:

In Escherichia coli, it has been shown that the translation elongation rate is approximately 16 amino acids per ribosome per second (16 x 15 = 240). On the other hand, the Shine-Dalgarno sequence is a polypurine stretch of variable length present in prokaryotic cells and acts as a ribosomal binding site for the messenger RNA (mRNA). This sequence can base-pair to a complementary sequence known as the 'anti-Shine-Dalgarno sequence' at the 3' end of the bacterial 16S rRNA subunit and is required to initiate the process of translation by which a polypeptide chain is synthesized. Generally, the Shine-Dalgarno sequence is located from 10 to 8 nucleotides upstream of the start codon (AUG codon). In E. coli, the Shine-Dalgarno sequence is AGGAGGU.
