During this period, the cell is constantly synthesizing RNA, producing protein and growing in size. By studying molecular events in cells, scientists have determined that interphase can be divided into 4 steps: Gap 0 (G0), Gap 1 (G1), S (synthesis) phase, Gap 2 (G2).
Decline in the global population of amphibians is due to multiple reasons which include:
A moist ecosystem is necessary for amphibians especially for the purpose of their reproduction. The drainage of the wetlands deprives them of their habitat.
Pollutants adversely affects the survival of the gametes, tadpoles or the adult amphibians by acting as toxic agents and inhibiting their normal metabolic function.
Infectious diseases often cause their death resulting their population to decline.
Global climate warming affects their normal metabolic growth and development and hence causes their population to decline.
