8. Which of the following involves a situation in which a density-dependent factor influences a population?a. Several seasons passed during which rainfall was ample, winters were not severe and
food for snow hares was in good supply.
b. A hurricane severely disrupted a salt marsh and uprooted most of the marsh grass in an
estuary.
c. A forest fire on the north side of a mountain forced the white-tailed deer from the north
side to move into the range of the white-tailed deer on the south side of the mountain,
making food more scarce.
d. After a heavy rain, pesticides that were applied to a cotton crop to control weevils ran off
into a waterway that flows next to a field.

What is the most important vein in the human body?

Answers

All veins in the body are essential. Besides, the major part is the internal jugular vein. It withdrws blood from the crucial parts of the human parts like the neck.


All veins are important because they carry blood throughout the body and all veins have a specific purpose/job to do to help the body function. Many veins take the deoxygenated blood...blood that doesn't have oxygen in them any more because it was used up...and transport it back to the heart where the heart pumps  the  deoxygenated blood  to the lungs to become oxygenated...oxygen is put back into the blood.

here are two of the many veins in the body:

- pulmonary veins and other veins involved with the heart system/the functioning of the heart

-systemic veins: I believe this also deals with the heart but it can also deal with veins in the upper part of our body (includes: head, neck/throat area and chest area I believe).  We also have veins in the lower part of the body (abdomen (area that contains organs/stomach area), legs, and whatever else falls under the lower part of the body.

I tried to keep this in simple terms from what I learned in biology. For example, within the veins in the abdomen there are more specific names to the veins and their function.

What are the two types of behavioral adaptation

Answers

Answer:

The 2 types of behavioral adaptation are migration, and hibernation.

Explanation:

Adaptation of animal is the fitness towards its environment. If an animal can't adapt, it will perish with time. Adaptation may be genetic or acquired. But basically, adaptation is 2 types - physical adaptation, and behavioral adaptation.  

Physical adaptation includes the coloring of the body, camouflage activity of an organism. The behavioral adaptation is the respond of the organisms to their habitat. This includes hibernation, estivation, migration, etc.

Some animals are affected by the temperature difference of the environment. Therefore, they adopt some methods to survive in extreme temperatures.

The cold-blooded like amphibians hibernate during winter.  They undergo a long sleep during cold weather and become active in summer.  Similarly some animals like desert lizard active in the morning. When the temperature increase they burrow themselves under the ground. This is called estivation.

Birds migrate during the adverse season i.e. in winter. They temporarily go to a different place to spend the cold month and return during the advent of summer. This is one type of behavioral adaptation. They also migrate for better breeding ground and food.  

Some fishes also migrate for breeding and food.

All organisms have adaptations that help them survive and thrive. Some adaptations are structural. Structural adaptations are physical features of an organism like the bill on a bird or the fur on a bear. Other adaptations are behavioral. Behavioral adaptations are the things organisms do to survive. For example, bird calls and migration are behavioral adaptations.
Adaptations are the result of evolution. Evolution is a change in a species over long periods of time.
Adaptations usually occur because a gene mutates or changes by accident! Some mutations can help an animal or plant survive better than others in the species without the mutation.
For example, imagine a bird species. One day a bird is born with a beak that is longer than the beak of other birds in the species. The longer beak helps the bird catch more food. Because the bird can catch more food, it is healthier than the other birds, lives longer and breeds more. The bird passes the gene for a longer beak on to its offspring. They also live longer and have more offspring and the gene continues to be inherited generation after generation.
Eventually the longer beak can be found in all of the species. This doesn't happen overnight. It takes thousands of years for a mutation to be found in an entire species.
Over time, animals that are better adapted to their environment survive and breed. Animals that are not well adapted to an environment may not survive.
The characteristics that help a species survive in an environment are passed on to future generations. Those characteristics that don't help the species survive slowly disappear.

Answers

The right answer is the dark reaction would stop happening.
The Calvin cycle (or dark reactions, independent of the sunlight) makes it possible to manufacture glucose, an energy molecule, from carbon dioxide. This is called carbon fixation.There are three reactions of this cycle take place in the stroma of chloroplasts: the first of which is the fixation of carbon dioxide. which is a limiting step in this cycle.If a substance other than the components of the dark reactions absorbs and uses carbon dioxide, the carbon cycle will not be able to occur for lack of one of these ingredients which is the CO2.
