Answer:
D / D / D / B / C
Explanation:
I just took the quick check myself, got all of them right :)
1 ) Top predators do not increase the number of prey, neither do they create imbalance or increase the food for other predator species. This is common knowledge, so ruling those out you are left with D. As they do in fact maintain the rest of the food chains populations.
2) A top predator in the ocean is a shark. Of course some might mistake a small whale to be a top predator, but sharks are actually known to hunt whales- the small ones anyway. A sea lion fish or a bird wouldn't exactly be a candidate for the top of the food chain either.
3) During seasonal flooding, to an area such as a river, water gets added to the existing pool, and many biotics and abiotics take this to their advantage. As a result- biodiversity actually increases during these times, but once season flooding is over it goes back to being the same.
4) The impact difference of seasonal flooding from damming a river is actually quite big. Seasonal flooding is.. well.. seasonal.. while damming for the most part is permanent, or will be there for much longer time span than season flooding is. Seasonal flooding increases biodiversity, but damming does not. This is becuase of the long term increase of water, the environment has to readapt, as plants that were once there drowned, and the known species most likely ran off to find better environment. Here it takes a while but eventually new abiotic and biotic species adapt and reclaim the dammed area of the environment.
5) Yes, a long term increase in the average temperature would disturb the ecosystem. Even if it's for a little bit, it's still something the environment wouldn't be used to, meaning the plants and animals there would have to learn to adapt for the time being- even if its temporary.
1: It maintains other populations
2: A shark
3: The biodiversity of the area increases
4: Seasonal flooding does not impact biodiversity for as long term as damming.
5: Yes, because such a change could have a large-scale impact on wildlife.

1. What is the function of a top predator in an ecosystem?
A. It increases the food for other predator species.
B. It creates imbalance in the ecosystem.
C. It maintains populations. **
D. It helps increase the number of prey.
Reason - The answer is C because predators couldn't possibly increase the food for other predators. They obviously don't imbalance the ecosystem since they help keep it cycling. And they can't increase the number of prey if they're eating prey so therfore you're left with C.
2. Which is considered a top predator in the ocean?
A. A shark**
B. A sea lion
C. A small whale
D. A bird.
Reason - The answer is A because actually the top predator in the ocean is the killer whale but since it's not an option, you'd wanna go for a shark. A small whale obviously couldn't eat a big shark, nor could any of the others. :)
3. What happens to an ecosystem during normal seasonal flooding?
A. The biodiversity of the area reaches equilibrium.
B. The biodiversity of the area increases. **
C. The biodiversity of the area decreases.
D. The biodiversity of the area stays the same.
Reason - Just trust, I'm trying to finish this post and got tired of giving reasons. Sorry and thanks:)
4. How is the impact of seasonal flooding different from damming a river?
A. Seasonal flooding helps balance biodiversity, but damming does not.
B. Seasonal flooding is not considered an ecological disturbance like damming.
C. Seasonal flooding does not impact biodiversity for as long term as damming.**
D. Seasonal flooding increases biodiversity, but damming does not.
Reason - Again, trying to finish this and tired of typing reasons but the answer is indeed C because damming a river can causes long-term damage to biodiversity and the ecosystem while it can quickly recover from a flood because it doesn't really damage as much and the flood will simply be gone after a bit. :)
5. Would a long-term increase in the average temperature of a region be considered a significant disturbance in the ecosystem?
A. No, because it would not create large-scale changes in the environment.
B. No, because increases and decreases in average temperatures are normal.
C. Yes, because such a change could have a large-scale impact on wildlife. **
D. Yes, because any slight change in temperature is considered a distribution.
Reason - Eh.. it's pretty self explanatory.
It maintains the population. The top predator of the ocean is a shark, biodiversity of the area increases, the seasonal flooding may impact biodiversity for as long term as damming. Yes, due to the change could have a large-scale impact on wildlife.
What are the Exkplanion for the above answers?As per the top predators of the ecosystem, thy duty is to maintain the level of populating in the community. As they hunt down prey and thus be balanced. The ocean is just like the land is full of predators and prey the shark is the largest top predators species in the oceans.
A dammed river can create long-term damage to the biodiversity of the region. As flooding can lead to disaster and may impact the food supply. A long-term increase in the temperature of the region can lead to a large impact on wildlife.

Column 3 is labeled step 7: Test for Diffusion of Glucose with entries Not observed, Light Blue initial color and Red after 15 minutes.
Analysis:
diffused though the semipermeable membrane.
Answer:
only glucose
Explanation:
The second student set up solutions that were in equilibrium.
On which principle Dialysis is based?Dialysis is based on the principles of osmosis, meaning the net movement of solvent molecules through a selectively permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration. If the solute concentrations are the same on each side of the membrane, this spontaneous movement will not occur.
In passive diffusion, the small water molecules can move across the phospholipid bilayer seen in blue. This layer acts as a semi-permeable or selectively permeable membrane; its hydrophilic heads are attracted to water (seen facing outwards) while its water-repellent hydrophobic tails face towards each other- allowing molecules of water to diffuse across the membrane along the concentration gradient.
Therefore, the second student set up solutions that were in equilibrium.

Part B
How did you determine the types of cell division for both phases depicted in your model? Explain your answer.
Answer:
Cell division is a process that makes our skin, tissues, muscles, sex cells. It is the building block of our body.
Explanation:
When parents cells ahs been divided into two or more than two daughter cells then it is called division of cells. The division of cells occur as a larger cell. When we talk about eukaryotic cells, these cells divided into two distinct types of the cells, the vegetative cells.
The daughter cells are the identical to the parents cells genetically. There are two types of division such as mitosis and meiosis. When parents cells divides in daughter cells and daughter cells divided further, this process called the cells cycle. The mitosis cell division occur interphase. Meiosis cell division occur in two phase meiosis I and meiosis II.

Can hydrogen peroxide be broken down by catalysts other than those found in a living system? What is/are the control(s) and why are they needed?
Answer:
Can hydrogen peroxide be broken down by catalyst other than those found in a living system? Hydrogen peroxide can be broken down by manganese dioxide because it has catalytic properties. It is unstable which makes it very reactive. ... Sand however is not able to break it down
Explanation:
because it contains no catalytic properties
Manganese dioxide, which has catalytic properties, can degrade hydrogen peroxide. Because it is unstable, it is extremely reactive. It even degrades when exposed to light.
What is a catalyst?A catalyst is a substance that accelerates or reduces the temperature or pressure required to initiate a chemical reaction without being consumed in the process. Catalysis is the process of facilitating a reaction by adding a catalyst.
Hydrogen peroxide is one of the cleanest and most versatile chemicals available, decomposing to produce only oxygen and water (disproportionation).
The catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide allows for the use of various catalysts to speed up the decomposition process.
Another consideration is that catalase is an enzyme that degrades at higher temperatures. The activation energy of the reaction changes as the catalyst decomposes.
As a result, the reaction will slow down. Manganese dioxide, on the other hand, does not decompose even at higher temperatures.
Thus, it can be concluded that hydrogen peroxide be broken down by catalysts other than those found in a living system.
