ATP differs from the nucleotides found in DNA in the Select one: a. use of uracil in the nitrogenous base portion of the molecule. b. use of phosphate instead of sulfate in the backbone. c. use of phosphorus in the nitrogenous base portion of the molecule. d. sugar portion of the molecule. e. use of adenosine instead of adenine.

Option D

The sugar portion of the molecule

Explanation:

In the nucleotides found in the DNA, the nitrogenous bases (A, G, C,T) are attached to a deoxyribose sugar but in the RNA, the bases (A, G, C, U) are attached to a ribose sugar.

In ATP, the nitrogenous base adenine is attached to a ribose sugar giving rise to adenosine. Adenosine is then bonded to three phosphate groups giving rise to Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

answer: decrease

a limiting factor is the one which decrease the abundance, distribution and causes extinction of the population of species in a ecosystem. here, predators including hawks, owls and snakes are the limiting factor for the population of mexican free tailed bat.   although bats are nocturnal animals as they forge for food at night these predators also may remain active during night which can decrease the population of the mexican free-tailed bats. also, these bats eat only one type of insects that are moths. the food can also be a limiting factor as all 400 members are dependent upon same type of food needs that are moths. the decrease in the moth population can cause decrease in population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.

therefore, the scenarios will most likely to decrease the population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.
