Bison in Yellowstone National Park have a food-limited carrying capacity that determines how their population grows. If the population grows too large, some bison will either starve or migrate to search for more food. The park is able to support a maximum population of 4,500 bison. Park conservation officials must watch the population and prevent the bison from overpopulating, since they would migrate to nearby farms, causing agricultural damage and creating hazards to drivers. The bison begin to migrate when the population reaches 4,000 because of competition for food. If the current population size of bison is 3,652 and the maximum growth rate of the population is 0.28, calculate the population size after one year and determine whether the park will need to take measures to control the population.
A. The population will be 3,845 after a year. The bison will not pose a problem until the following year, and no conservation action will need to take place.
B. The population will be 4,675 after a year. Some bison will need to be removed to prevent migration, since they will surpass the resource availability.
C. The population will be 1,023 after a year, since the growth rate is too low. Conservation efforts will need to focus on increasing the bison population.
D. The population will be 4,500 after a year. The bison cannot exceed the carrying capacity, so they will stop reproducing. Some bison will need to be removed.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. The population will be 3,845 after a year. The bison will not pose a problem until the following year, and no conservation action will need to take place.

Explanation:

The exposed example refers to a population that exhibits a logistic growth model, Where the principal limiting factor is food availability

N is the total size of the populationNt the population size after a T timeK the carrying capacityr the population growth rate per capita

When N < K the population has not reached the maximum size that can be supported by the environment. It can increase in size.

When N = K the population has reached the maximum size that can be supported by the environment. It can not grow anymore. The population reached a maximum point delimited by available resources, such as food

When N > K the population has supered the maximum size that can be supported by the environment. It must decrease in size. because there are not enough resources.

To calculate the population size after one year, we need to use the following equation.

N t+1= Nt+rN(1-N/K)

Available data:

K = 4500

N = 3652

r = 0.28  

Nm= 4000

N/K = 3652/4500 = 0.8115

r.N = 0.28 x 3652 = 1022.56

N t+1= Nt+rN(1-N/K)

N t+1= 3652+1022.56(1-0.8115)

N t+1= 3652+1022.56(0.1885)

N t+1= 3652+192.753

N t+1= 3844.75  

rounding up to 3845

They are complex and larger than the prokaryotic cells its name is drived from a Greek word meaning 'good' or 'true nuclei' they consist of the cell wall which protects and supports the plasma membrane these cells are found in all organisms except bacteria and blue green algae for example plant animal fungi etc all are eukaryotes. Amoeba is a eukaryote because it has a distinct nucleus which is bound by nuclear membrane.

Additional information :-

Cell :- Smallest structural and functional unit of a living organisms.

Unicellular organisms :- The organisms made up of one cell only.

Multicellular organisms :- The organisms made up of two or more cells.

Cell wall :- The covering of cellulose outside plasma membrane also called plasma membrane.

Centriole :- The cell organelle that helps in cell division found only in animal cell.

Black mice and tan mice are native species that are observed in a particular region. Human habitation in the region caused an invasive mouse species to enter the region. These mice are brown and share the same food requirements as black mice. Tan mice have different food requirements. How will this change affect the food web in the region? A. The availability of food resources for black mice and brown mice will decrease. B. The population of tan mice will decrease. C. The black mice and tan mice will compete for food resources. D. The tan mice and brown mice will compete for food resources.

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The correct answer would be that the availability of food resources for black mice and brown mice will decrease.

Since the food requirements of the black mice are the same as that of the invasive brown mice, the available food supply that used to be only for the black mice would now be shared by the two strains of mice. Hence, the available food for the two groups of mice will naturally decrease.

There is no sufficient information to conclude that the population of tan mice will decrease, hence, option B is incorrect.

The black mice and tan mice have different food requirements going by the information available in the illustration, hence, both cannot compete for food resources. Option C is, therefore, incorrect. In the same vein, option D is incorrect because the tan mice have different food requirements from the brown mice.

The only correct option is A.

In eukaryotes, general transcription factors A) are required for the expression of specific protein-encoding genes. B) bind to other proteins or to a sequence element within the promoter called the TATA box. C) inhibit RNA polymerase binding to the promoter and begin transcribing. D) bind to sequences just after the start site of transcription.

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The general transcription factors bind to other proteins or to a sequence element within the promoter region known as the TATA box.

Transcription is a biological process involving the synthesis of RNA from a DNA template. The process of transcription begins with the binding of an enzyme, the RNA polymerase, to the promoter region of a gene. Prior to that, however, a group of enzymes known as the transcription factors must bind to a specific sequence within the promoter region - the TATA box. The binding of the RNA polymerase signals the unwinding of the section of the DNA to complete the initiation complex.

The correct option is, therefore, B.

So, as was her usual custom, she 'told God she was afraid to go in the night, and in the day every body would see her.' At length, the thought came to her that she could leave just before the day dawned, and get out of the neighborhood where she was known before the people were much astir. 'Yes,' she said, fervently, 'that's a good thought! Thank you, God, for that thought!' So, receiving it as coming direct from God, she acted upon it, and one fine morning, a little before day-break, she might have been seen stepping stealthily away from the rear of Master Dupont's house."

C) The recombinant bacterium will transcribe the gene but will be unable to translate the mRNA.
D) The recombinant bacterium will die because it has been exposed to foreign DNA.

Answers

Answer:

А) The recombinant bacterium will produce human insulin using its own transcription and translation machinery.

Explanation:

Recombinant DNA technologies refer to molecular biology techniques used to create chimeric DNA sequences by using genetic recombination techniques. The resultant recombinant DNA can further be used for the production of desired gene products (proteins) both in vitro and in living organisms. DNA recombinant techniques involve the insertion of desired DNA regions into an appropriate vector such as, for example, in a plasmid that is amplified in bacteria. For this purpose, the desired DNA fragment is inserted into a plasmid vector by digesting both the target DNA and plasmid insertion sites with an appropriate restriction enzyme. Subsequently, a DNA ligase is used to join both DNA fragments from their ends. Finally, the transformed bacterial (host) cells are selected to express the desired inserted gene.
