Purpose
In this assignment, you will use, evaluate, and improve a simulation to highlight human impact on coral
reef ecosystems. Then you will propose and evaluate real-world solutions to reduce the negative effects
of human activity on this ecosystem and its biodiversity.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

A coral reef is an environment in which various abiotic (water, sunlight, temperature, salt, waves, and so on) and biotic (aquatic plants, shrimps, fish, corals, and so on) factors combine to maintain the system's homeostasis. A simulation model is a descriptive model that makes future inferences about one system using existing data (or process). A computer-based experiment in which each part of the device contributes to the measurement of the impacts induced by the interaction of unknown inputs is also known as a simulation model. It is possible to determine how changes in water temperature influence the relationship between various types of trophic levels in the coral reef environment, which may be expressed by aquatic plants and fish species, by using a simulation model.

Corals, algae, and fish in coral reefs have a lower survival rate as the pH of the ocean water drops. In acidic ocean water, coral reefs struggle to survive. This is due to the coral's calcium carbonate shell's inability to withstand an acidic environment. Snails, clams, algae, fish, and other animals have calcium carbonate in their skeletons. The death of these animals is caused by increased acidity. As a result, the lower the pH of ocean water, the higher its acidity, and therefore the lower the chance of corals, algae, and fish surviving in the coral reef.

The amount of calcium carbonate in coral reef water is affected by a lower pH value (more acidic). Since coral skeletons are made of calcium carbonate, this has an effect on them. It may be a major issue (since coral reefs are a source of food and tourism), since it would be more difficult for them to calcify or even dissolve. As a result, if 'ocean acidification' occurs as a result of carbon dioxide absorption from the atmosphere, reduced pH may reduce coral reef biodiversity.

The simulation's pH is too low to allow coral reefs to develop. The ocean is affected, and these coral reefs are important for the diversity of marine life because they have a lot of nutrients, which is ideal for small organisms to live in. As a result, if there is a lot of acid in the water, these coral reefs will dissolve and vanish.

I'd raise the ocean's temperature and lower the pH percentage so that users can see how human activity affects the ocean. Human activity causes contamination of the air, which causes CO2, which causes more of the CO2 to be consumed by the seas, raising acidity, which contributes to an increase in temperature and the dissolution of coral reefs.

Add mutations, edit genes, pick factors such as wolves, food, climate (arctic or dessert), and monitor population or pedigree chart were some of the variables I had control over in the simulation.

The impact on the pH of Earth’s oceans can be reduced by lowering the carbon dioxide in the air, and reducing the plastics that goes into the oceans.

Answers

Answer:

C. Each cell needs to receive a complete copy of the chromosomes in order for the cell to work properly

Explanation:

The model in this question depicts the process of DNA replication, which is the process whereby an identical copy of DNA is made. Based on the model in the question, one (1) individual chromosome forms two (2) sister chromatids per chromosome. Each sister chromatid contains the replicated DNA.

This process is very important and must occur prior to any cell division because every cell needs to receive a complete copy of the chromosomes in order for the cell to work properly. For example, each human cell must receive 23 pairs of chromosome or 46 chromosomes in order to function well and this is ensured by DNA replication.

Answers

Answer: A cell spends most of its time in what is called interphase, and during this time it grows, replicates its chromosomes, and prepares for cell division. The cell then leaves interphase, undergoes mitosis, and completes its division.

Interphase is the longest phase that the cell grows in

Be sure to answer all parts. The net reproductive rate, R0, of a population can be used to predict whether a population will grow or shrink over time. If R0 is greater than 1 then a population is growing; if it is less than 1, the population is shrinking; and if it is equal to one, then the population is at equilibrium. The size of the next generation (Nt 1) of a population can be determined by multiplying the net reproductive rate by the current population size, N. Part 1 out of 2 Given a current population size of 788 and a net reproductive rate of 1.00, what would be the size of the population in the next generation

Answers

Answer:

N (t) = 788 individuals

Explanation:

There are some parameters to consider when analyzing the evolution of a population in time regarding its size. Some of them are the generational time -T-, the intrinsic growth rate per capita -r₀-, the net reproductive rate -R₀-, the reproductive value -V₀-. among others.

To obtain the net reproductive rate -R₀- of a population, we must relate the contribution of individuals of each age to the next generation, with the possibility that those individuals reach that age.

It can also be considered the media of female offspring that each female can produce throughout its whole life.

You can also think about it as a quantity by which the population abundance will increase, decrease, or remain the same in the followings generations. And this concept is related to what is stated in the problem.

If R₀>1the population size increasesIf R₀<1 the population size decreases If R₀=1 ⇒ the population is in equilibrium. Its size remains the same.

According to the given information, we can use different formulas to calculate R₀

R₀ = N(t) / N(0) ------> (N0 being the population size at time zero, and Nt in a

                                    certain generation)

R₀ = sum (lx * mx)---> (Lx being the survival rate and mx the fertility rate)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To answer this question, instead of calculating the R₀ value, we need to calculate Nt, which is the population size at t generation. In this example, is the following generation, so t=1.

We already know that N₀ = 788 individuals and that R₀=1.

By clearing the equation R₀ = N(t) / N(0), we can get the Nt value.  

N (t) = N₀ x R₀

N(t) = 788 x 1

N(t) = 788 individuals

The population size at time 0 and time 1 is the same. This is because the R₀ value = 1, meaning that the population is in equilibrium. It does not increase either decrease. Probably there are as many deaths as births.

______ can amplify the effects of temperature by increasing the rate of heat loss by convection.

Answers

Answer:

wind

Explanation:

As the air heats up and becomes less dense, it rises higher into the atmosphere, thereby cooler air takes its place and produces wind (moving air is wind). This wind can produce a positive feedback loop that increases the transfer of heat by both evaporation (i.e., by losing heat through the conversion of water to vapor) and convection (i.e.,  through the movement of air). In consequence, wind created by temperature fluctuation can amplify the effects of temperature. In organisms, winds can also contribute to water loss by increasing the evaporation/transpiration rate.

The process by which organisms adapt to their environment in order to increase their chances of surviving in that environment is known as evolutionary adaptation, or simply adaptation.

The biological process through which organisms adapt to brand-new surroundings or alterations in their current environments is known as adaptation.

Wallace and Darwin both went beyond basic adaptation when formulating the notion of evolution by natural selection by describing how organisms adapt and evolve.

Therefore, Animals are less likely to eat the plant and It tastes bad so they wont want to eat it again.

Explanation:

In a study published in the journal Nature, scientists studied eight ponds in Florida: four that were populated by a species of fish and four that were not. As they studied the ponds, they noted that the areas around the four fish-populated ponds showed decreased populations of dragonflies and dragonfly larvae, whereas the four without fish showed abnormally large populations of dragonflies and larvae. Dragonflies feed on bees, butterflies, and other pollinators.

Predict what would happen to the rate of pollination of flowers in a field next to a pond with no tish.

Answers

Answer: the rate of pollination of flower, in a field next to a pond with no fish, will DECREASE.

Explanation:

POLLINATION is defined as the process by which flowering plants, through the aid of external agents such as insects,wind, water and other animals, are able to transfer pollen grains from an anther to a receptive stigma. Insects are the most common pollinators. They visit flowers to obtain nectar and pollen as source of food. Flowers use various features, such as colour and scent, to attract and guide insects to the food source within them. In the process of reaching their source of food, insects bring about pollination.

From the study conducted by scientist in Florida, eight(8) ponds where subjected to the the study. The first four (4) ponds had species of fishes that fed on dragonflies and dragonfly larvae, hence the reason for a decrease in the population of the dragon flies in the area around it. While the remaining four (4) ponds had NO fish and the area around it is populated with dragonflies and dragonfly larvae. This is so because of the absence of fish.

It was then noted that the dragon lies fed of the insect pollinators such as the bees and butterflies. Since these dragonflies and its larvae are abundant in the field which is close to the pond with no fish, they will grossly depend on the insect pollinators as their source of food thereby decreasing the rate of pollination in the field next to the pond with no fish.
