The Competitive Exclusion Principle states that: Group of answer choices a. When two species occur together, competition is always prevented by some behavioral adjustment. b. Two species that use a limited resource in the same way cannot coexist indefinitely. c. Two species that use the same community can use limited resources in different ways. d. When two species each compete for the same resource in the same location, competition will always evolve into commensalism. e. None of the choices are correct.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b. Two species that use a limited resource in the same way cannot coexist indefinitely

Explanation:

The competitive exclusion principle establishes that two or more species that share the same niche requirements,  in the same habitat, and are in biological competition for the same resources, won´t be able to coexist indefinitely in the same space if the other ecological factors are constant. This is because species with identical niches have the same necessities, which means that they will compete for the same resources. If these species have the same requirements, they can not coexist. When the superior competitor occupies the inferior competitor´s fundamental niche, the first species has advantages over the second species and monopolizes all the resources. From that moment, the inferior species is displaced and must adapt to use other resources changing its behavior, or must migrate to another area where it can get access to its needs or get extinct.

When two competing species coexist, this is because of niche partitioning or niche differentiation. One of the species uses a different resource, occupies another area, or uses the resources at different times during the day. If there is not any differentiation between them, the dominant species displaces the weak species.

Niche specialization might produce genotypic separation. Subpopulations of a species diverge into new species.    

So, competitive exclusion refers to the exclusion of the inferior competitor by the superior competitor when there is not habitat differentiation, and both species can not share the same niche.    

Answer 2

Answer:

B. Two species that use a limited resource in the same way cannot coexist indefinitely.

Explanation:

The Competitive Exclusion Principle states that: Two species that use a limited resource in the same way cannot coexist indefinitely.

In an early experiment, it was found that a mouse in a sealed glass jar soon died, but if a plant was included in the jar, the mouse lived much longer. Explain theses results.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - mouse produces carbon dioxide which is used by the plants for photosynthesis that in turn produces oxygen that is used for cellular respiration.

Explanation:

A mouse can not live in a sealed container or jar for a long time whereas with a plant in a closed and sealed jar mouse can live longer. This is due to the fact that in absence of the plant there is no oxygen for the mouse to get perform cellular respiration.

in a jar with a plant, the mouse lives longer because the plant still produces oxygen by the process of photosynthesis which is used by the mouse for cellular respiration and produces carbon dioxide that is taken by the plant.

Polar bears live in the tundra. They obtain their energy almost exclusively from eating other animals, although they do eat some vegetation. Black bears that live in temperate forests tend to be more omnivorous, eating a wide variety of plants and animals for energy.

An adaptation is a behavior or an anatomical structure that can help an organism survive in its environment. Why are diet choices important adaptations for these animals’ survival in their biomes? Based on the images, what other adaptations do these animals display?

Answers

Answer:

In the tundra, vegetation is rare, so polar bears had to adapt to eat a heavily animal-based diet. In the temperate forest region, a wider variety of plants is available, so black bears can eat a more omnivorous diet. The bears’ colors are adaptations. The polar bear blends in with the snowy background, and the black bear blends in with the trees of the temperate background. The bears’ coloring could help them hunt for prey.

(5) If the coral dies, the reef becomes bare rock and sand no longer full of life.

Answers

Answer:

(5) If the coral dies, the reef becomes bare rock and sand no longer full of life.

Explanation:

The atmosphere is a part of coral reef because a large population of organisms lives in these coral reefs. It provides habitat to the biosphere of the  ocean as well as oxygen to the marine organisms. It can greatly affected with the increase concentration of carbondioxide due to acidification of water that kills the algae that is lives on the surface of these coral reef. So if these algae die due to lowering of pH, a large portion of marine organisms also removed from the environment due to unavailability of suitable environmental conditions.

how can a predator prey relationship cause coevolution

Answers

Answer:

La coevolución impone presiones selectivas. Éstas a su vez llevan a una carrera armamental de adaptaciones mutuas progresivas

Explanation:

Explanation:

Coevolution

Coevolution is a cyclic process in which the adaptations of one organism in an ecosystem drive the adaptations of another organism. These adaptations then cause the first organism to adapt to keep up (Brockhurst & Koskella, 2013). Coevolution is very environmentally specific so you will not see it develop between generalist species (Abrams, 2006; Aslan, et. al, 2013; Becklin, 2008; Chu, 1985) though it may develop communally. Similarly, coevolution does not account for wide-scale adaptions among groups of organisms better attributed to environmental shifts such as habitat destruction and climate change (Chu, 1985).

D all options.

Answers

Answer:

Cell division is found to occur in both groth and reproduction.The answer is D

Answer:

D all options.

Explanation:

Cancer

Cancer is unchecked cell growth. Mutations in genes can cause cancer by accelerating cell division rates or inhibiting normal controls on the system, such as cell cycle arrest or programmed cell death.

Reproduction

Cell division usually occurs as part of a larger cell cycle. Both of these cell division cycles are used in the process of sexual reproduction at some point in their life cycle.

Growth

In unicellular organisms, cell division is the means of reproduction; in multicellular organisms, it is the means of tissue growth and maintenance. Most tissues of the body grow by increasing their cell number, but this growth is highly regulated to maintain a balance between different tissues
