Answer the following question given this paragraph: Population density just gives the average number of individuals per unit of area or volume. Often, individuals in a population are not spread out evenly. Instead, they may live in clumps or some other pattern (see Figure below ). The pattern may reflect characteristics of the species or its environment. Population distribution describes how the individuals are distributed, or spread throughout their habitat. Q: The average number of individuals per unit of area can be expressed as what? Choices: - the percent of population - percent density - total density - population density A:
(A).
population density
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: environment of the body's soft tissues. Barrier defenses are part of the body's most basic defense mechanisms. The barrier defenses are not a response to infections, but they are continuously working to protect against a broad range of pathogens. The different modes of barrier defenses are associated with the external surfaces of the body, where pathogens may try to enter (Table 21.2). The primary barrier to the entrance of microorganisms into the body is the skin. Not only is the skin covered with a layer of dead, keratinized epithelium that is too dry for bacteria in which to grow, but as these cells are continuously sloughed off from the skin, they carry bacteria and other pathogens with them. Additionally, sweat and other skin secretions may lower pH, contain toxic lipids, and physically wash microbes away. Q: The barrier defenses are not a response to infections, but they are continuously working to protect against a broad range of what? Choices: - mates - nutrients - ecosystems - pathogens A:

Ans:pathogens
Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Exocytosis The reverse process of moving material into a cell is the process of exocytosis. Exocytosis is the opposite of the processes discussed above in that its purpose is to expel material from the cell into the extracellular fluid. Waste material is enveloped in a membrane and fuses with the interior of the plasma membrane. This fusion opens the membranous envelope on. Q: The reverse process of moving material into a cell is the process of what? Choices: - endocytosis - proteolysis - osmosis - exocytosis A:
Ans:
exocytosis
