Thank you for inquiring your data to our organization. We have completed an inventory of the biological diversity in Central America and interpreted the distribution of the Choloepus hoffmanni (two-toed sloth) and Bradypus variegatus (brown-throated three-toed sloths). The possible locations the sloths could be located are‚ agriculture (AG)‚ low land old growth (LL OG)‚ low land secondary forest (LL SF)‚ mountainous old growth (MTN OG)‚ mountainous secondary forest (MTN SF)‚ and finally clear cut

Introduction: Escherichia coli (E.coli) is a commensal-pathogenic organism which include a wide range of strains. There are several advanced molecular-genomic technologies that are capable for detecting and identifying different strains of E.coli. But‚ ERIC-PCR technique is a quick and cost effective method for determining individual strains via demonstration of strain specific fingerprint bands. Therefore‚ the ERIC-PCR technique was used to determine the isolated strains of E.coli from different

The White Australia Policy was first promulgated by the first governing Prime Minister Edward Barton who was fearful that if non-Europeans in Australia were left unchecked‚ they would no longer regard the Australian Parliament as a ruling figure. The basis

animals. Apex predators also provide greater biodiversity and higher densities of individuals‚ while areas without apex predators experience species absences. Sharks help maintain the health of ocean ecosystems by promoting biodiversity‚ having mutualism relationships and benefitting seagrass beds and coral reefs (sharks eat fish that deplete the seagrass). By preventing one species from monopolizing a limited resource‚ predators increase the species diversity of the ecosystem. So having this healthy
