Herons are very large birds, and due to their intimidating size, they have very little predators. They have a varied diet and consume many different prey (fish, snakes, amphibians, and probably many other small animals). If the population of herons would decrease, the population of the other organisms living in the same environment would increase since they would have a greater chance at survival (since they are not being eaten by the herons)
Group 18 non reactive and non metallic
Answer:
The excessive alcohol consumption of the mother.
Explanation:
Alcohol consumption during pregnancy harms the developing baby, the foetus. This is because alcohol passes from the mother's blood to the baby's blood and this affects the growth of the baby's cell.
This causes severe damage to the cells of the brain and the spinal cord.
FASD - Fetal Alcohol Spectrums Disorder is characterised by growth and developmental problems and it can range from mild to severe.
Example is the baby having small head, narrow eye and behavioural problems later in life.
Answer:
Genetic drift (sampling error)
Explanation:
According to the given information, the population under study has a small size and is more likely to be affected by genetic drift. Genetic drift refers to any chance event that leads to random changes in the allele frequencies of a population over time.
It may occur by sampling error that either makes the allele frequency 100% in the population or completely removes it from the population. Sampling error occurs quickly in the small population. The initial frequency of "blood type A" was 3/85= 0.035. Over the time period of 45 years, sampling error during gamete formation and random fertilization removed all the individuals with "blood type A" from the population and reduced its frequency to 0.
Answer:
<h2>
Gastrin: stomach,
</h2><h2>
CCK- SI,
</h2><h2>
Insulin- pancreas,
</h2><h2>
Glucagon-pancreas. etc</h2>
Explanation:
1. Gastrin: secreted by stomach stimulating activity of the stomach
,
2. CCK: secreted by SI stimulating secretion of pancreatic enzymes; contraction of gallbladder and pyloric sphincter and inhibitory effects on stomach
3. Secretin: secreted by SI if material entering SI is acidic, triggering secretion of HCO₃-
.
4. Insulin: produced by beta-cells of pancreas and
stimulates storage of glucose in liver and muscle and it causes re-uptake of glucose when blood-sugar is high, lowering blood sugar
5. Glucagon- produced by alpha-cells of pancreas and
it stimulates release of glucose from liver when blood-sugar is low, and results in raising blood sugar.
