Farmers brought nutria, a type of large rodents, from South America to North America in the 1990s. They wanted to raise the rodents for their fur. Some of these rodents escaped into the wild and became a major pest in the Gulf Coast and Chesapeake Bay regions. Grasses and shrubs in these regions are vital, because they provide food and shelter for many species. They also help in preventing soil erosion. The nutria are eating up all the grasses and shrubs, which affects the food cycles of these regions. The entire ecosystems are being disrupted.
Moreover, nutria pose a direct threat to humans. These rodents are an effective vector for carrying parasites that can cause disease in humans. They also damage property. The burrows created by nutria can damage dams and building foundations as well as cause erosion near streams and lakes.

the answer from pluto/edmentum
Answer:
The apple snail is a native species of Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay. Southeast Asia legally imported this alien species to use it as a protein source. Later, this species was brought to places like Hawaii as a source of food.
Like most, if not all, invasive species, the apple snail outcompetes native species for resources. This is because it reproduces rapidly (laying hundreds of eggs every few weeks) and lacks predators. As a result, the snails spread rapidly to aquatic biomes and modify the natural balance of aquatic ecosystems.

Explain the changes in the whales skeletons during the transition in habitat according to the theory of natural selection. Will mark brainliest.
Answer:
Legs are better for things such as walking, while it’s the oppostite for fins and tails. Those are better used for swimming. Early whales didn’t have tails and fins, so their skeletons adapted into fins and tails so they could move around better in the water since that is where they spent most of their time. In conclusion, skeletons generally adapt to a form that best suits the animal.
Explanation:
According to natural selection, early whales didn’t have tails and fins, so their skeletons adapted into fins and tails so they could move around better in the water.
What do you mean by natural selection?Natural selection is the differential survival and reproduction of individuals due to differences in phenotype. It is a key mechanism of evolution, the change in the heritable traits characteristic of a population over generations.
Natural selection is the process through which populations of living organisms adapt and change. Individuals in a population are naturally variable, meaning that they are all different in some ways.
There are four principles at work in evolution—variation, inheritance, selection and time. These are considered the components of the evolutionary mechanism of natural selection.

The muscles of a tired jogger begin to undergo lactic acid fermentation. As a result, the jogger is most likely to
A) absorb more oxygen with each breath
B) release less carbon dioxide with each breath
C) experience an increase in blood pH
D) experience a “burning” sensation in the muscles
Answer:
D: experience a “burning” sensation in the muscles
Explanation: Based on the information in the lesson, this option makes the most sense.
"When lactate builds up, the blood’s pH drops and the muscles fatigue. This is why you may feel your muscles "burn" from the buildup of lactic acid."
In the given scenario, the jogger will experience a “burning” sensation in the muscles. The correct option is D.
What is muscle fatigue?Muscle fatigue is the loss of a muscle's capacity to create force. It can be caused by strenuous exercise, but abnormal fatigue can also be caused by impediments to or interference with the various stages of muscle contraction.
When lactate levels rise, the pH of the blood falls and the muscles fatigue. That's why individuals may feel their muscles "burn" as lactic acid builds up.
Thus, the correct option is D.

Explanation:
Two students completed an experiment to determine if pesticide use at local farms was causing fish kills in a local pond. The steps of the experiment are listed below. Select one location to collect water samples in the pond. Collect a 5-mL water sample at 8 am for two days. Measure the amount of pesticide present in each sample using the same measurement tools. After analyzing their data, the students conclude that pesticide runoff from farms is not causing the fish to die in the pond. Which of these statements best describes why their conclusion is not reliable? The pesticide measurements were the dependent variable. The samples were collected at different times. The samples were only collected for two days. The time of sample collection was not an independent variable.
Answer:
The pesticide measurements were the dependent variable
Explanation:
According to this question, an experiment to determine if pesticide used at local farms was causing fish kills in a local pond was conducted by two students. They followed the following steps:
- Select one location to collect water samples in the pond.
- Collect a 5-mL water sample at 8 am for two days.
- Measure the amount of pesticide present in each sample using the same measurement tools
However, after analyzing the data, they concluded that "runoff from farms is not causing the fish to die in the pond". The students' conclusion is not reliable because THE PESTICIDE MEASUREMENTS WERE THE DEPENDENT VARIABLE.
Note that, the dependent variable in an experiment is the measured variable while the independent variable is the manipulated variable. In this case, the students ought to measure the death RATE OF FISH KILLS as the dependent variable instead. The PESTICIDE is the independent variable of the experiment not dependent variable. This was the reason for the unreliability of the conclusion.

The layers of the Earth from the most dense to the least dense are:
Inner CoreOuter CoreLower MantleUpper MantleCrustDensity is how much mass an object has for each unit of volume. This just means how much space something takes up compared to the amount of matter that it has. When something has a lot of mass compressed into a comparatively small space, we can say that object has a high density or that it is very dense.
The Core of the Earth is divided into an inner core which is the densest, and a slightly less dense outer core. Both of these are made of iron, nickel, sulfur, and oxygen. The mantle is also divided into two parts, an Upper and a much thicker Lower Mantle. The Lower mantle is denser than the upper mantle. These layers are made of silicate rock. The most superficial and least dense layer of the Earth is the Crust.
Therefore the layers of the Earth from most to least dense are the Inner Core, Outer Core, Lower Mantle, Upper Mantle, and Crust.

The atomic number of krypton is 36. If the mass number of a krypton atom is 84, which table shows the number of subatomic particles inside and outside the nucleus of the krypton atom?
Answer:
A
Explanation:
In the planetary model, there is a nucleus with protons and neutrons, surrounded by orbits with electrons. In the krypton representation, there are 84 subatomic particles inside the nucleus and 36 outside.
---------------------------------------------------
The representation of an element includes a superior number that indicates the massic number, and an inferior number that indicates the atomic number.
We need to know that every atom is identified by its number of protons and neutrons. So,
Representation ⇒ ᵃ X ₀
Where
• X is the element
• a is representing the massic number, which is defined as the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons.
• z is the atomic number, which is the number of protons ⇒ represented as 0 above
In electrically neutral atoms, the number of protons equals the number of electrons. This means that the atomic number also indicates the number of electrons.
We will call n to the number of neutrons, which equals a - z
So, what you need to know is that
• Nº of protons = Atomic number → z
• Nº of neutrons = Massic number - Atomic number → n = a - z
• Nº of Electrons = Nº of protons = Atomic number → z
When representing these atom structures using the planetary model, there must be a nucleus surrounded by orbits.
In the nucleus there are protons and neutrons. In the orbits, there are electrons in different energetic levels.
• Nucleus → Protons + Neutrons → circle indicating number of P⁺ + N⁰
• Orbits → Around the nucleus → Following the energy levels
The energy levels indicate how many electrons, e⁻, maximum must be placed per level -orbit- → seven levels
In the exposed example, we have,
Element ⇒ KryptonAtomic number, z ⇒ 36 ⇒ Nº of protonsMassic number, a ⇒ 84 ⇒ Nº of neutrons + Nº protonsWe know that the atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons, so
• Nº of neutrons = Massic number - Atomic number → 84 - 36 = 48
• Nº of Electrons = Nº of protons = Atomic number → 36
According to the framework, we might assume that in a planetary model representation, there are 84 subatomic particles inside the nucleus, and 36 subatomic particles outside.
• Inside the Nucleus → Protons + Neutrons → 48 + 36 = 84
• Outside the nucleus (Orbits) → Electrons → 36

As you have observed, animal hairs usually have a large medulla composed of air-filled compartments. These air-filled compartments are present for a reason and can actually help hair do its job better. Describe one reason that might explain why having a hair made of air filled compartments could be helpful to an animal.
PLEASE HELP
Answer:
to provide insulation
Explanation:
The medullary index is the proportion of the diameter of the hair medulla in regard to the diameter of the entire hair: The equation to calculate the medullary index is medulla diameter/hair diameter. In animals, the hair medulla is generally thicker compared to humans (medullary index approximately 0.5 and 0.33, respectively). The thicker the diameter of the hair medulla, the better is the insulation.
