What trophic level is the kingdom protista on?
Kingdom Protista can occupy various trophic levels, as they include diverse organisms such as algae, protozoa, and some heterotrophic protists. Some protists are primary producers (autotrophs), while others are consumers (heterotrophs) feeding on producers or other consumers.
How does the size of a landmass relates to species diversity?
Larger landmasses have greater diversity.
Is a high ERA in baseball good or bad?

What are three molecules that go into the Calvin cycle?
Dear friend, in Calvin cycle only two kinds of trioses (3C sugars) are formed. In fact, these are not sugars but phospoesters. One is phospoglyceraldehyde and second is dihydroxyacetone phosphate. These are isomers of each other.
Why is the earth trying to become homeostatic?
The Earth has natural processes that work towards achieving balance and stability to support life, known as homeostasis. It helps maintain a suitable environment for the plants, animals, and ecosystems that rely on it for survival. This balance is crucial for sustaining the diverse life forms and the interconnected web of ecosystems on Earth.
Which area had a greatest diversity of llife?
The Amazon rainforest in South America is known to be one of the areas with the greatest diversity of life on Earth. It is home to millions of species of plants, animals, and insects, many of which are still undocumented by scientists. The sheer variety of ecosystems within the Amazon, from dense jungle to open savannas, contributes to its remarkable biodiversity.
No, but we are related distantly. We are related more closely to Great Apes (such as gorillas) than to monkeys.
What do you learn from identifications of individuals and population?
The identification of people and population can help researchers learn about similar characteristics between certain individuals of the same population. Population is defined as a group of people living in an area, interacting with each other constantly.
Why is aesthetic argument relevant only to a minority of wealthy citizens in developed countries?
because it holds little relevant to the majority of worlds population
How the variations contribute to the diversity of the community?

Diversity, a British dance group, gained fame by winning the third series of "Britain's Got Talent" in 2009. They notably beat the singer Susan Boyle in the final, securing their victory with a performance that showcased their unique style and creativity. The group's win was significant as it highlighted the appeal of diverse performance art on mainstream television.
Who are the 'Disciples of Calvin'?
Disciples of Calvin - variously known as Huguenots, Presbyterians, Puritans or Calvinists - agitate for their own kind of reform in the Roman Catholic kingdoms of France and Scotland, in Anglican England and in the Spanish Netherlands. In doctrine they follow the Swiss reform of Zwingli, as opposed to that of Luther. But Calvin adds one harshly rigorous element - the concept of predestination, with roots in St Paul and St Augustine. This argues that since everything is in God's hands, he must have selected in advance those who shall be saved. Thus any community includes some who are God's elect, destined for heaven, and others whose certain fate is damnation. One other distinct element in Calvinism is an insistence that church and state must be separate. The pastors control much of Genevan life, but they are not (and must never be) the civil magistrates. This distinction gives Calvinist sects a greater independence than either Lutherans or Anglicans, both of whom operate in a close relationship with lay rulers. Scottish Calvinists establish a church in defiance of Scotland's monarch, while the Pilgrim Fathers cross the Atlantic to found their own Calvinist community. The Genevan ideals of morality, thrift and hard work make such communities well adapted to prosper, even if tending to self-righteousness and intolerance.
Do white tail spiders scratch or punture the skin?
White-tailed Spider bites can cause initial burning pain followed by swelling and itchiness at the bitten area. Occasionally, weals, blistering or local ulceration have been reported - conditions known medically as necrotising arachnidism. As well as the spider's venom, minor bacterial infection of the wound may be a contributory factor in such cases.
A debate continues about the involvement of White-tailed Spider bite in cases of severe ulcerative skin lesions seen in patients diagnosed as probable spider bite victims. Typically, in such cases no direct evidence of spider bite is available. Sensational media reporting of supposed cases of severe "necrotising arachnidism" has given the White-tailed Spider a bad reputation. However, a recent study has monitored the medical outcomes of over 100 verified White-tailed Spider bites and found not a single case of ulceration (confirming the results of an earlier study). The available evidence suggests that skin ulceration is not a common outcome of White-tailed Spider bite.
White-tailed Spiders around your house can be controlled by catching and removing any that you see and by clearing away the webs of the house spiders upon which they feed.
