What is a nonnative species

A species that does not normally live in an area

What is the allele frequency

Allele frequency is the frequency (proportion) of alleles in a population. It can be expressed as a percentage or a decimal.

For example, suppose a population has 10 individuals and there are two alleles (A and a) of a gene. Suppose the individuals are as follows:

4 AA individuals = 8 A alleles

4 Aa individuals = 4 A alleles and 4 a alleles

2 aa individuals = 4 a alleles

So there are (8 + 4) = 12 A alleles in the population and (4 + 4) = 8 a alleles in the population.

The frequency of A alleles is therefore 12/20 = 0.6 or 60%.

The frequency of a alleles is 8/20 = 0.4 or 40%.

(Notice that the total number of alleles equals 1.0 or 100%.)

What is a cyclical disturbance

A disturbance that repeats over and over

How does an ecosystem change during succession

It has more biodiversity.

Which biome is highly productive all year long

Tropical Rain Forest

A plant survives in a tropical rain forest when placed in a temperature forest it dies within a year what is most likely characteristic of the plant

That plant needs stable weather.

Why does competition happen

Competition happens because there are limited resources in an ecosystem.

What way leads to competition between two species

An overlap in their niches

What is Immigration in tagalog translation

Immigration in Tagalog: pagdayo

Ice floats on water because ice is less dence than water how helpful to fish that live in a lake

The ice that covers a lake actually insulates the deeper water preventing it from freezing too, this allows fish to continue to swim and feed during the winter.

The graph below shows the population of mice in an ecosystem where the mice are not allowed to enter or leave. Which best describes the population at point C

The birthrate is higher than the death rate (APEX)

Which is a density dependent factor

Space apex

Which best describes a climax community

A very stable community. (Apex)
