which of the following structures in a plant cell is responsible for the production of food​

Answers

Answer:

chloroplast

Explanation:

Chloroplasts are specialized organelles found only in plants and some types of algae. These organelles carry out the process of photosynthesis, which turns water, carbon dioxide, and light energy into nutrients from which the plant can obtain energy. There can be over one hundred chloroplasts in certain plant cells.

Chloroplasts are disk-shaped organelles that are surrounded by a double membrane. The outer membrane forms the external surface of the chloroplast and is relatively permeable to small molecules, allowing substances entry into the organelle. The inner membrane lies just beneath the outer membrane and is less permeable to external substances.

Between the outer and inner membrane is a thin intermembrane space that is about 10-20 nanometers wide. The center of the chloroplast that is enclosed by the double membrane is a fluid matrix called the stroma (you can think of this like the cytoplasm of the chloroplast).

Within the stroma, there are many structures called thylakoids, which look like flattened disks. Thylakoids are stacked on top of one another in vascular plants in stacks called grand. Thylakoids have a high concentration of chlorophyll and carotenoids, which are pigments that capture light energy from the sun. The molecule chlorophyll is also what gives plants their green color.

17. If most other species on Earth aren't monogamous, why are humans expected to be?

Answers

Many species are. Specifically, those species in which the male invests a significant amount of energy and time in providing for the offspring (rather than just fertilizing the female’s eggs and leaving). Humans definitely fall into the category. However, humans (like other monogamous animals) display what is called a “mixed strategy,” whereby each member of the pair tries to monopolize the parental investment of the other parent (to improve the chances for survival of their own offspring) while also remaining alert to (for males) sexual/reproductive opportunities with other females, or (for females) the chance to get resources (in the form of food, protection, etc.) from other males.

Of course, human cultural developments over thousands of years have shaped many variations on this basic theme. But the basic underlying logic remains the same. As evolutionary biologist Lynne Saxon put it, “monogamy is a compromise in which the winners are the offspring.”

That said, monogamy is by no means the rule across our entire species. In fact, a majority of societies around the world at least ALLOW men to have more than one wife. (A few allow women to have more than one husband.) The societies that allow for polygamy tend to be smaller than the ones where monogamy is the ideal, leading to a mistaken impression that our whole species is monogamous. But in fact, humans have devised a number of different sexual/reproductive strategies, across different cultural settings. Often it’s monogamy, for the simple reason that monogamy usually gives children the best chance of survival.

Do the patterns of interactions between organisms, such as competition and predation, change when they occur in different ecosystems

Answers

Yes, there is change when they occur in different ecosystems because each ecosystem contains a different set of abiotic and biotic features that interact with each other.

What is competition?

Competition is defined as the struggle for survival that exists between two similar organisms in an ecosystem where one who gains survives and the one that loses dies.

Predation is defined as the feeding interaction that exist between organisms whereby the one organism, the predator, kills and eats another organism, its prey.

The patterns of interaction between organisms such as competition and predation would change because each ecosystem contains a different set of abiotic and biotic features that interact with each other.

The difference in the chromosome arrangement during meiosis in the metaphase plate can lead to greater genetic diversity in a population. Explain your answer

Answers

Answer:

independent assortment  

Explanation:

The independent assortment of chromosomes refers to the process by which pairs of homologous chromosomes are randomly separated during meiosis. In metaphase I, pairs of homologous chromosomes line up along the center of the cell at the metaphase plate, and subsequently segregate at anaphase I. For example, in humans, there are 8,324,608 different gametic combinations that can result from meiosis (i.e., 23 chromosome pairs >> 2²³ = 8,324, 608 gametic combinations). In consequence, it is almost impossible that two gametes have the same combination of chromosomes after meiosis, thereby this process increases the genetic variation in the population.

Which of the following is a homeostatic response when the human body is fighting an infection?

Select one:

Negative feedback producing more antibodies in the blood.

Positive feedback releasing more enzymes into the blood.

Negative feedback increasing body temperature.

Positive feedback increasing heart rate.

Answers

Explanation:

The immune response contributes to homeostasis by helping to fight off infection and heal after infection or trauma. During an infection, molecules called pyrogens are released, which alert the brain to increase the temperature of the body, causing a fever

The homeostatic response when the human body is fighting an infection is negative feedback, increasing body temperature; that is the third option, as increasing body temperature helps to inhibit the growth and replication of pathogens and also enhances the immune response.

What is homeostasis in a fever?

When the body is fighting an infection, it triggers a complex set of responses to try to restore homeostasis and overcome the infection. One of these responses is the activation of the immune system, which produces various cells and molecules to fight off the invading pathogens.

One of the most important homeostatic responses during an infection is the increase in body temperature, which is known as fever. The body's thermostat, which is located in the hypothalamus of the brain, is set to a normal temperature of around 37°C (98 °F). However, during an infection, the body may raise its temperature to 38°C (100.4°F) or higher.

Hence, the homeostatic response when the human body is fighting an infection is negative feedback, increasing body temperature; that is the third option.

c. The relative abundance of species in a community

Answers

It’s how even a community is So if there are 40 foxes and 1000 dogs, the community is not very even. I think it’s C

The relative abundance of species in a community is known as species evenness. Therefore, option C is correct.

What is species evenness?

Species evenness refers to the measure of the relative abundance of different species within a community or ecosystem. It describes the balance of the distribution of individuals among the different species present in a particular area.

For example, a community with high species evenness would have similar numbers of individuals in each species, while a community with low species evenness would have a few dominant species with many individuals and many less abundant species with fewer individuals.

Species evenness is often used in conjunction with species richness, which refers to the total number of different species present in a community, to provide a more complete picture of the biodiversity of an area. Thus, option C is correct.

B- a drought reduces the amount of water available to an ecosystem
C- a disease reduces the population of rabbits in a grassland area
D- many offspring are produced in a single year

Answers

Answer:

C. A disease reduces the population of rabbits in a grassland area

Explanation:

If a disease reduces the size of a rabbit population, there will be a decreased amount of competition for resources.

Less rabbits means that there will be less competition, since there will be more food available.

For example, there would be less competition in a rabbit population of 10 rabbits compared to one of 20 rabbits. This is because there are less rabbits competing for food.

So, the correct answer is C. A disease reduces the population of rabbits in a grassland area

The events that would bring decrease competition for resources in an ecosystem is C. A disease reduces the population of rabbits in a grassland area.
