Microorganisms can mutate and evolve very quickly compared to most multicellular organisms. This allows pathogenic microorganisms to infect new species. Suppose a very harmful microorganism that is quite successful at infecting hardwood trees is introduced into a forest ecosystem. What effect would this pathogenic microorganism most likely have?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer: It would disrupt the ecosystem by greatly reducing the population

of a few species.

Explanation: If a few species are affected the multiplying effect can be devastating.

Answer 2

Answer: it would most likely infection the forests and probably even mutate to be able to infection animals that live in the forest

A biology student is studying ways to grow crops in soils that are high in salts and other dissolved solids. To determine whether corn plants can tolerate salty soil conditions, she grows 50 corn plants in typical garden soil and the same amount of corn plants in garden soil plus varying amounts of salt: 0.01 kg, 0.1 kg, and 1 kg of salt. After 6 weeks of growth, there was an inverse relationship between amount of salt in the soil and plant height: the more salt present, the shorter the plants. The student concluded that salt had did have an effect on the growth of corn. What was the control in the experiment?

Answers

Number of corn plants

corn and plants ..corn is control in experiment

Which of the following makes the statement FALSE? In the alternation of generations life cycle, the generations that alternate A. Are haploid and diploid multicellular organisms B. Produce each other C. Directly develop into one another as parts of the same individual D. May be physically attached

Answers

Answer:

The false statement is option C. Directly develop into one another as parts of the same individual.

Explanation:

Alternation of generations is one of the type of the life cycle which is common in land plants and some of the alga species change n between haploid and diploid generation alternatively of an individual. It is presented in the plants only as in animals both haploid and diploid cell present in every generation.

In the alternation of generation, generation does not directly develop into each other as part of the particular individual.

Thus, the correct answer is option C. Directly develop into one another as parts of the same individual.

Why are cane toads in Australia considered an invasive species rather than simply nonnative?

Answers

Even though both nonnative soecies and invasive species were introduced to an ecosystem rather than being there naturally, invasive species cause harm to the ecosystem because they do not have natural predators and therefore overpopulate and use up more resources, which harms other species.

Answer:

The answer is A "They are destructive to native species and have no natural predators."

Explanation:

I just took the test and this was correct :)
