URGENT: Explain how predation, disease, and competition impact a population based upon scale and distribution of the organisms.

The construction of phylogenetic trees is a mapping out the proposed divisions and common ancestors of all living species. traditionally, these trees have been built using morphological data, such as appearance and embryology. recently, it has been possible to construct these trees using molecular data. phylogenetic trees based on different types of information agree with each: that there is strong evidence of a real underlying common descent. this phylogenic tree is composed based on molecular data (rrna). what statements can we infer are true about the organisms throughout the tree? because the tree is rooted, all branches share a common ancestor. all organisms have some sort of cellular structure/organization. all eukaryotes evolved from bacteria. since the organisms contain rna, they share the same dna. if the organisms contain rna, the share the same four nitrogen bases.

The diagram below represents a marine food web and a process that can harm the human population. each circle represents an organism and the smaller dots inside them represent a toxic substance. what is being represented and how does it harm the population? the diagram represents biological half-life, in which toxins build up in organisms higher up on the food chain, and this can negatively impact humans who consume the organisms and the toxic substance. the diagram represents biomagnification, in which toxins build up in organisms higher up on the food chain, and this can negatively impact humans who consume the organisms and the toxic substance. the diagram represents the process by which different organisms prey upon each other; this can impact the human population by reducing the number of organisms that do not contain the toxin. the diagram represents the way that toxins are metabolized by living organisms, with those at greater trophic levels able to metabolize more efficiently than those at lower levels. this means that those at higher tropic levels are safer for humans to consume compared to the organisms at lower trophic levels.

Can you identify which of the following groups of organisms are, or are not, populations? a. the american bison (bison bison) and grey wolves (canis lupus) currently living in yellowstone national parkb. all of the rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss that) that have ever lived in lake eriec. the group of american bison (bison bison) currently living in yellowstone national parkd. a group of calliope hummingbirds (selasphorus calliope) and a group of rufous hummingbirds (selasphorus rufus) living in the same new hampshire woodse. the northern cardinals (cardinalis cardinalis) living on opposite shores of lake champlain f. all of the whales currently living in the atlantic ocean off cape cod, massachusetts
