DDT is a pesticide that was once widely used to control agricultural
pests and mosquitoes. However, this pesticide caused the eggshells of
certain birds, including the brown pelican, to become fragile and thin. The
adults would then accidentally crush the eggs while trying to incubate
them. What happened to brown pelican populations as a result of DDT use by
humans? *
Mark only one oval.

1) The populations increased much more slowly.
2) The populations decreased as fewer eggs survived long enough to hatch.
3) The populations remained stable over time.
4) The populations increased as pelicans laid more eggs so that more offspring would
survive.

Question 4 using myplate's daily food plant for 2000 kilocalories as a reference, the servings from the protein foods group in this menu are a. adequate overall, and consistent with the dietary guidelines 2010 recommendations. b. short 2 ounce equivalents. c. inadequate in terms of the recommendations for a 2000 kcal diet. d. adequate overall, but inconsistent with the dietary guidelines 2010 recommendations.

The tasmanian devil, a marsupial carnivore, is facing extinction due to devil facial tumor disease (dftd) which causes bulging cancerous lumps and lesions to erupt around the face and neck — often causing enough deformation to make seeing or eating difficult. dftd has evolved into a contagious cancer, a trait that is unique among cancers. devil mating behavior involves biting around the head and neck, allowing cells from one individual — especially cells from the crumbly dftd tumors — to be transferred to the wounds or face of a new individual. this marsupial was once found across australia, but sea levels rose, isolating the tasmanian population, while the australian population went extinct. what would be an outcome of genetic isolation that is likely to have impacted the spread of dftd? a) reduced territory puts diseased individuals in greater contact with non-diseased ones. b) inbreeding results in less variation in facial features so the cancer is generally fatal. c) genetic isolation has made it difficult for scientists to develop a vaccine against dftd. d) the lack of genetic variation in the immune system of tasmanian devils minimizes resistance to the disease.

Part e - sequence of metabolic processes each of the different cellular metabolic pathways occurs in a specific order. consider aerobic cellular metabolism from the beginning to end. what is the sequential order of the metabolic processes that starts with glucose and results in the production of carbon dioxide, water, and atp? put the following in the correct sequential order. rank from earliest to latest. to rank items as equivalent, overlap them. view available hint(s) acetyl coaglycolysiscitric acid cycle pyruvate finishstartstart background image electron transport chain background image finish background image submit cellular metabolism is often expressed as an equation. this equation puts into perspective, on a general scale, the substances needed to start cellular metabolism and the products that come out of it. the equation represents the overall product yield after every step of cellular metabolism is complete (i. e., glycolysis through the electron transport system). in this part of the tutorial you task will be to put together the equation that represents cellular metabolism. you will also learn the products that result from each metabolic pathway and the role that some these products play in the production of atp.
