Introduction:
An important feature of any population is its growth rate. The
Answer to Problem 1STP
Correct answer :
The correct answer is option A. below the main reproductive age
Explanation of Solution
Explanation/justification for the correct answer:
Option A. below the main reproductive age − A population will enter a long term high growth rate when the individuals are just below the main reproductive age because the total number of organisms that are able to reproduce soon increases. Hence this is the correct option.
Explanation for incorrect answer:
Option B. just above the main reproductive age− If large numbers of individuals are just above the main reproductive age the population will soon start to decline as the birth rate will fall. New offspring will not be produced and the population will consist of aging individuals.
Hence, this is not the correct option.
Option C. at the middle of the main reproductive age- If more individuals are at the middle of the main reproductive age the population will not increase in long term as more individuals will soon enter non- reproductive age. Very few new individuals will be added to the population. Hence, this is not the correct option.
Option D. at the upper end of the main reproductive age− If more individuals are at the upper end of the main reproductive age, the population will not increase in long term as all individuals will soon enter non- reproductive age. No new individuals will be added to the population. Hence this is not the correct option.

The article could be about the pathogen itself, the disease process related to the pathogen, the immune response to the pathogen, vaccines or treatments that affect the pathogen, or other biology-related study about the pathogen. I recommend that you choose a pathogen that is currently interesting to researchers, so that you will be able to find plenty of articles about it. Avoid choosing a historical disease that no longer circulates. List 3 possible pathogens or diseases that you might want to do for your group project.arrow_forwardnot use ai pleasearrow_forward

In oxidative phosphorylation 3 ATP are produced from every one NADH molecule. In respiration, every glucose molecule produces 10 NADH molecules.
