The Lotka-Volterra model produces consistently identical cycles because it is deterministic. The lynx and hare simulation on the right does not, because it is stochastic. Run the simulation again now with the controls below, paying attention to the animals in the enclosure at the top. Given the differences between these two types of models, why would it be difficult to determine accurate values for the four parameters in the Lotka-Volterra predator-prey model (a, prev, m, b) for animals in the real world?

a. In the real world, individual predators do not differ in their ability to search for prey.
b. In the real world, random and unpredictable events occur, so the Lotka-Volterra parameters vary over time.
c. In the real world, prey population sizes constantly change, and the Lotka-Volterra model fails to account for this
d. In the real world, biological interactions are so complex and dynamic that models have no relevance.

what do the different brain waves do?

explanation:

brainwaves are produced by synchronised electrical pulses from masses of neurons communicating with each other. brainwaves are detected using sensors placed on the scalp. brainwave speed is measured in hertz (cycles per second) and they are divided into bands delineating slow, moderate, and fast waves.

a scenario where a cell may be needed to perform a form of endocytosis is when transporting large molecules. a scenario where a cell may be needed to perform a form of exocytosis is when releasing the large molecule from the cell.

plants absorb water from the soil by osmosis. root hair cells are adapted for this by having a large surface area to speed up osmosis. the absorbed water is transported through the roots to the rest of the plant where it is used for different purposes: it transports dissolved minerals around the plant.
