The birth rate in the lynx population can be estimated by determining
litter sizes. Litter size can be determined by two methods. The first
method involves counting the number of placental scars on the uterus of
a lynx carcass. A scar is left at each implantation site of a fetus. The
second method involves counting the number of degenerated corpora
lutea (plural of corpus luteum) in the ovaries of the lynx carcass. Neither
of these methods provides a completely accurate value for litter size.
Explain why each method produces an overestimation of actual litter size.
i. counting placental scars
ii. counting degenerated corpora lutea

Sea levels are rising due to climate change while increasing numbers of people are moving into coastal areas. to accommodate more people, there has been increased construction of beachfront resorts and condominiums. how is this impacting sea turtle numbers and biodiversity and why? a. the increased human population in coastal areas has meant that more food is available to the turtles (e. g., dropped food, waste from restaurants), which has led to an increase in the numbers and diversity of sea turtles. b. there has been very little change in the numbers and biodiversity of sea turtles because the planet is so vast that they can simply relocate to less crowded beaches. c. this has resulted in a decrease in numbers and diversity of sea turtles because it is restricting available nesting sites, and hence reproduction. d. this has resulted in an increase in numbers and diversity of sea turtles because people are around to protect them from natural predators.
