A population of 20 monarch butterfly is colonize a meadow. The meadows carrying capacity for a monarch butterfly's is 5000 individuals. What statement best describes the growth rate of the population of Monarch butterfly after the Meadow is colonized?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Explanation:

A.

The population grows exponentially until it approaches 5,000 individuals, and then the population size begins to decrease.

B.

The population grows exponentially until it approaches 5,000 individuals, and then its growth rate decreases.

C.

The population grows at a constant rate until it approaches 5,000 individuals, and then its growth rate increases.

D.

The population grows at a constant rate until it approaches 5,000 individuals, and then the population size remains stable.

The statement that best described the growth rate of the Monarch butterfly after the Meadow was colonized would be that the population grows at a constant rate until it approaches 5,000 individuals, and then the population size remains stable.

The carrying capacity generally represents the maximum number of individuals of a particular species an environment can support based on the resources that the environment has. Ideally, the population only stabilizes with very minimal oscillation around the carrying capacity. It neither decreases nor increases significantly unless a major disruption happens.

The only option that addresses the stability of populations around the carrying capacity of the environment is option D.

The correct answer is D.

When carbohydrate consumption exceeds the body's immediate needs for energy, glycogenesis ____________ .

Glycogen storage space in the liver and muscles is limited. When glycogen stores are full, use of glucose for energy ____________ and oxidation of fat for energy ____________ .

Overall, when carbohydrate intake is excessive, lipogenesis ____________


Increase or decrease

Answers

Answer:

When carbohydrate consumption exceeds the body's immediate needs for energy, glycogenesis  decreases.

The process of conversation of stored glycogen in the liver and muscles  to glucose is Glycogenesis. It takes place when the blood glucose drops,below certain levels and the body cells need glucose for biochemical activities.Therefore, when there are excess CHO consumption,more glucose would be in the blood,and thus no need for glycogenesis.(breakdown of glycogen)

Glycogen storage space in the liver and muscles is limited. When glycogen stores are full, use of glucose for energy __Increases__________ and oxidation of fat for energy ___decreases_________ .

Definitely, this is a simple logic.As the storage for glycogen is limited,excess glucose  move into the blood, since they can not be converted to glycogen.The glucose is expended through cellular reduce the amount in the blood. Therefore, Gluconeogenesis, the production of glucose from non-CHO substances drops. Hence beta- oxidation drops.

Overall, when carbohydrate intake is excessive, lipogenesis increases.The process of converting excess CHO to fatty acids.Biochemically it is the process of converting the Carbon precursor of acetyl co -A to fatty acids.Therefore this increases to synthesized more fatty acids from CHO

Two differences between hormones and the nervous system

Answers

Answer:

Hormones can be proteins, lipids or cholesterol-based molecules. Neurotransmitters are protein. The main difference between hormones and neurotransmitters is that Hormones are produced in the endocrine glands and released into the bloodstream where they find their movement targets at a distance from their origin. In contrast, Neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic space by a terminal of an excited presynaptic nerve cell and transmit a nerve signal to the neighboring postsynaptic nerve cell.

Explanation:

Answer:

the nervous system and endocrine system (hormones) is that the nervous system uses electrical impulses to send messages through neurons while endocrine glands use hormones to send messages to the target cells through the bloodstream.
