is an example of a(n)
O A. keystone species
O B. extinct species
O c. invasive species
O D. introduced species
Answers
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Invasive species are usually species that enter an environment and cause destruction to the food chain, biodiversity, and the overall way of life. The toad outcompeteing the frogs that are supposed to be in the environment suggest it's an invasive species.
An introduced species would be if the toad was purposely introduced to the environment, which it was not.

Respond to the following based on your reading.
Colonization is largely blamed for bringing smallpox to the Americas. Why was this disease so devastating to Native Americans? Why can we now travel to different parts of the world and avoid contracting analogous diseases?
Answers
Answer:
Killing pathogens and then using them to provide the body with active immunity is called IMMUNIZATION . This is often done in young children.
When the immune system treats otherwise harmless substances, such as pollen, as if they were invaders, a/n ALLERGY can occur.
HIV is a virus that attacks WHITE BLOOD CELLS in the body, weakening the immune system.
Polio used to be fairly common and devastating. Thanks to widespread vaccination against polio, the disease is now considered ABSENT, no longer infecting nearly as many people as it once did.
Arthritis is an example of a/n AUTOIMMUNE DISORDER where part of a person’s body is identified as foreign and attacked by the person’s immune system.
Immunization helps involves the injection of dead pathogens into the bloodstream. This helps in the release of antibodies which helps in protecting the body against further attacks in the future.
Allergy happens as a result of the body system treating and attacking harmless substances.
This is because the ships which brought immigrants into the country had someone who had small pox on board which spread and many got infected and killed due to lack of vaccine and treatment.
Immunization helps people to travel without having to worry about diseases.
Answer:
vaccination
allergic reaction
t-cells

autoimmune disease
Europeans had been exposed to the virus that causes smallpox for many generations, allowing them to acquire immunity to the virus. Native Americans were not exposed to smallpox or similar viruses before, so they had no immunity to the virus. In modern times, before traveling abroad, a person often receives vaccinations or other medications to avoid contracting the diseases specific to that region of the world.

what causes ocean tides to reach higher up on a shore at certain of day than at others?
Answers
Answer:
Most tides are semidiurnal, which means they take place twice a day. For example, when an area covered by the ocean faces the moon, the moon's gravitational force on the water causes a high high tide. As the Earth rotates, that area moves away from the moon's influence and the tide ebbs.

If the organisms you want to use it for are similar.
If you can't see the little characteristics posses by the organisms you are using it for.
If all the pictures does not reveal all the important features of the organisms.
It is very difficult to use it to determine the anatomical structure.
Explanation:
Dichotomous key is an important method that is use in biology to identify organisms by separating or dividing the organisms into two groups. It is a tool created by scientists to help them identify organisms or objects. Once the organisms are group into two, more information is revealed more individually.

a video that shows penguin species that have different mating dances
The reproductive isolation is the factor which allows the species to evolve and form a new species, therefore, this factor is used to describe a species.
The reproductive isolation refers to a mechanism in which the species are isolated to not interbreed with the individual of other species. The reproductive isolation could be due to behavioural, psychological, physical or genetic differences. evolved as an adaptation.
In the given cases, the penguin species which shows different mating dances is considered to be reproductively isolated as the different dance rituals evolved as behaviour to prevent them from mating.
Thus, the selected option is correct.
A video that shows a large river that has penguin populations on both sides would make the best project. So, the correct option is A.
What is Population?A population is defined as the complete set of individuals, whether that group includes a nation or a group of people with a common characteristic which is the pool of individuals from which a statistical sample is drawn for a study. .
It is described as a unit of biological community made up of a permanent group of an interbreeding individual of a species found in a space or geographic region at a particular time. Population are of three types of population pyramids created from age-sex distributions-- expansive, constrictive and stationary.
Thus, a video that shows a large river that has penguin populations on both sides would make the best project. So, the correct option is A.

What are some ways that the nitrogen cycle overlaps with or influences the oxygen and carbon cycles?
Are any of these interactions between the cycles positive?
Are any negative?
What about when the nitrogen cycle is thrown off balance by the Haber-Bosch process and others like it?
How can that influence the oxygen and carbon cycles?
Are there other cycles involved that have not been mentioned in this question?
What does this discussion suggest about the nature of the Earth as one large system?
Answers
Answer:
1. Nitrification occurs when soil microbes convert ammonium into nitrate. Much of the overlap between the carbon cycle and the nitrogen cycle occurs in the soil, in processes conducted by soil microbes. Microbes break down nutrients, build new compounds for their own growth, and eventually die.
The second question im not sure sorry- the positive and negative one ;(
3. Many human activities have a significant impact on the nitrogen cycle. Burning fossil fuels, application of nitrogen-based fertilizers, and other activities can dramatically increase the amount of biologically available nitrogen in an ecosystem. As nitrogen makes up 78% of the atmosphere, there is no shortage of it – it just isn't in a form plants and animals can use.
4. Carbon makes its way through living things as carbon-based compounds, like energy molecules, fats and proteins, eventually cycling its way back into the atmosphere. Nitrogen is mainly found in the atmosphere as well and enters the ecosystems as nutrients for plants. Water, nitrogen and carbon cycles. Carbon moves from the atmosphere and back via animals and plants. Nitrogen moves from the atmosphere and back via organisms. Water moves on, above, or below the surface of the Earth.
5. Carbon cycle, Nitrogen cycle, Nutrient cycle, Oxygen cycle, Phosphorus cycle, Sulfur cycle, Rock cycle, Water cycle.
6. Wind, water, and ice erode and shape the land. Volcanic activity and earthquakes alter the landscape in a dramatic and often violent manner. And on a much longer timescale, the movement of earth's plates slowly reconfigures oceans and continents. Each one of these processes plays a role in the Arctic and Antarctica.
Humans impact the physical environment in many ways: overpopulation, pollution, burning fossil fuels, and deforestation. Changes like these have triggered climate change, soil erosion, poor air quality, and undrinkable water. Earth's surface is the only habitat available to the human race. Understanding the processes by which that habitat has been created and continually altered is important to determine the causes of environmental degradation.
A mining company is interested in monazite, a mineral substance that forms in igneous rock in Earth’s interior. They think they found a lot of monazite in a sedimentary rock formation at Earth’s surface. Could this really be monazite? If so, how could the monazite have become part of sedimentary rock?
Answers
Answer:
Yes, it could have been monazite.
Monazite could have become part of sedimentary rock because it is formed during the metamorphosim of clastic sedimentary rocks. It is a resistant minerals that is found in weathered rocks debris which become concentrated and they are part of the soils and sediments found near weathered rocks.
Explanation:
Monazites are phosphate minerals that are found im small grains as accessory in igneous rocks and sedimentary rocks. It is formed during the crystallization of igneous rock and metamorphosim of clastic sedimentary rocks.

a population of white moths lives in a forest near a factory. this factory burns coal and pollutes the air with black dust. over time, this dust has settled on the trees in the area, making them darker in color. this could result in
1. an increase in the white moth population.
2. a decrease in the white moth population
3. an increase in the number of trees in the area
4. a decrease in the air pollution affecting the area
Answers
This is because if the trees are black, and covered with soot due to the pollution, caused by industrialisation, the white moths will be easily seen and constantly hunted by the predator, compared with the black moth population as they camouflage easily. Ultimately, the white moths would be hunted to such an extent that their population would dramatically decrease

A medical test indicates that a patient has a defective protein. This
condition is most likely due to a change in the directions coded in the:
number of phosphate molecules
sequence of subunits in DNA
number of nitrogen bases
sequence of sugar molecules
Answers
Answer:
number of nitrogen bases
Explanation:
The correct answer would be the number of nitrogen bases.
A defective protein is usually caused by mutation, which is defined a change in the DNA sequence of an organism.
Mutation can occur in a variety of ways including:
1. Deletion of nucleotide base sequence in the DNA
2. Addition (insertion) of nucleotide base sequence in the DNA
3. Duplication of nucleotide sequence in the DNA
A change in number of phosphate molecules, sequence of subunits DNA and sequence of sugar molecules if possible in nature, do not lead to mutation if the change does not affect the sequence of DNA.
Hence, the correct option is number of nitrogen bases.

Explanation:
Certain systems work with each other in order to maintain homeostasis, which is essential for the body. For example, when blood circulates through the digestive system, it picks up nutrients absorbed by the body during its last meal. Additionally, blood carries oxygen taken in by the lungs. The circulatory system works with the respiratory system here to distribute oxygen to other parts of the body.
