Density dependent would be the answer

Answer from: judyandaub1

density dependent

Limiting factor is a resource or environmental condition which limits the growth, abundance or distribution of population of species in an ecosystem. A limiting factor can be living or non-living affecting the size of the population of species in an ecosystem. Density dependent limiting factor causes decline in population per capita growth with increasing population density. Density dependent limiting factors are mostly biotic (living) rather abiotic (non-living).

Density dependent limiting factor will affect a large population more than it affects a small population because of the following reasons:

1. Competition: When a population attains high density, the members of the population compete for available resources like food, shelter, water, mates and other resources required for survival and reproduction. The competition for resources will limit the members in the population.

2. Predation: Larger population may attract more number of predators. Therefore, density in this case will result in limitation in population size.

3. Disease: When more number of individuals living in the same locality, there are chances of transmittance of diseases, hence, will result in decrease in population.

4. Accumulation of waste: High population density can lead to accumulation of biological wastes, which can contaminate the living environment, hence can limit population size.

Answer from: Quest

Mitochondria is the cell organelle that produced the energy that is needed in the body system in form of atp, that is why it is called the power house of the cell. energy is needed by the living organisms to carry out the activities which sustain life. if the mitochondria is destroyed atp will not be produced. if the mitochondria is destroyed, energy production will stop and the affected living organism will not have the energy to carry out the necessary life processes; this will lead to the death of the organism.

Part e - sequence of metabolic processes each of the different cellular metabolic pathways occurs in a specific order. consider aerobic cellular metabolism from the beginning to end. what is the sequential order of the metabolic processes that starts with glucose and results in the production of carbon dioxide, water, and atp? put the following in the correct sequential order. rank from earliest to latest. to rank items as equivalent, overlap them. view available hint(s) acetyl coaglycolysiscitric acid cycle pyruvate finishstartstart background image electron transport chain background image finish background image submit cellular metabolism is often expressed as an equation. this equation puts into perspective, on a general scale, the substances needed to start cellular metabolism and the products that come out of it. the equation represents the overall product yield after every step of cellular metabolism is complete (i.e., glycolysis through the electron transport system). in this part of the tutorial you task will be to put together the equation that represents cellular metabolism. you will also learn the products that result from each metabolic pathway and the role that some these products play in the production of atp.
