Explain why removing the capuchin monkeys from the rainforest ecosystem would have a negative impact to other living organisms like squirrel monkeys‚ insects‚ raptors and palm plants. The capuchin monkeys have an important role in the rainforest ecosystem and removing them would make a negative impact to other living organisms that benefit from them. Just like the squirrel monkeys‚ they depend on the capuchin monkeys for food for they get the leftovers of the capuchin

Life defies simple definition In its broadest sense‚ biology is the study of living things—the science of life. The seven characteristics shared by living systems: Cellular organization: All organisms consist of one or more cells. Often too tiny to see‚ cells carry out the basic activities of living. Each cell is

Biology 1C March 3‚ 2011 Extreme Environment of Lake Vostok in Antarctica Throughout the earth‚ there are so many places that are so extreme that we thought that no living things could adapt to the environment. Interestingly‚ there are some organisms that can inhabit in extreme environments‚ and they are extremeophiles‚ which are microbes that can thrive and adapt under extreme conditions. There are many types of extreme environment‚ such as extremely cold or hot‚ too acidic‚ lacking of water

Explain why the process of mitosis and meiosis are both important to a living organism. When would an organism need to undergo the process of mitosis? Meiosis? What would happen if meiosis did not occur? Mitosis is the cell process of growth and division whereas meiosis is the process of developing reproductive cells. The sperm and egg are critical components for almost all living organisms. Every living organism begins with one cell that came from our father’s sperm fertilizing our mother’s

Evolution of the Regenerative Properties in Crayfish Regeneration is the biological mechanism whereby organisms restore lost or damaged cells. This process can be used to replace organs‚ tissues and limbs on a small to large scale. Each type of regeneration requires different amounts of energy‚ resources and time. Orconectus rusticus (crayfish)‚ compete for food‚ survival and mating. They have large claws that are vitally important in competition and survival. This species has developed the

For instance‚ a forest community would contain animals‚ plants‚ and insects all of which are affected by the nonliving matter that surrounds them. The last of the first four systems is called a population. A population is a group of one type of organism‚ group‚ or individuals who interact with each other. The

Ksenia Semina Evolution Lab ARR 3 Blast Lab Analysis: Gene 1: The 4 organisms that were looked at in the Gene 1 are bird‚ vertebrate‚ rodent and bony fish. From the Blast result the most similar gene sequence to the gene of the gene of interest is Gallus gallus collaged which is also a bird. They are the most similar because the Gallus has the highest max score out of all other genes and 100% for the ident and there is no difference in the e-value. The species is located at the bird’s branch
