CAMPBELL BIO: CONCEPTS&CONNECTIONS (LL), Chapter 38, Problem 1CC

Fig.1: Key concepts of conservation biology.

Explanation of Solution

(a)

Correct answer: Species at risk of extinction.

Explanation:

The species of various plants and animals are preserved in various ecological habitats to prevent them from getting endangered and extinct. The branch of biology used to study this is called as “conservation biology”. Hence the correct answer is species at risk of extinction.

(b)

Correct answer: Restoration ecology.

Explanation:

The destruction of the habitat of animal and plant species due to pollution, hunting of animals, natural calamities like floods, afforestation or the cutting of the forests and over-grazing by animals causes the inability to breed. The branch of biology, which includes the reestablishment of the natural resources, habitat and ecosystems so that the species can survive, is called “restoration ecology”. Hence, the correct answer is restoration ecology.

(c)

Correct answer: Bioremediation.

Explanation:

The process of regeneration of the natural habitat, ecosystem, and preservation of the fertility of soil by planting trees leads to the preservation of the climate and habitat of the plants and animals. The study of this field of biology is called as “Bioremediation”. Hence, the correct answer is bioremediation.

(d)

Correct answer: Zoned reserves.

Explanation:

The preservation of the species of plantsand animals is done in the zoned reserves, where they are preserved by providing regular food and shelter. Hence, the correct answer is zoned reserves.

Normal dive (for diving humans) normal breathing dive normal breathing Oz level CO2 level urgent need to breathe Oz blackout zone high CO2 triggers breathing 6. This diagram shows rates of oxygen depletion and carbon dioxide accumulation in the blood in relation to the levels needed to maintain consciousness and trigger the urgent need to breathe in diving humans. How might the location and slope of the O₂ line differ for diving marine mammals such as whales and dolphins? • How might the location and slope of the CO₂ line differ for diving marine mammals such as whales and dolphins? • • Draw in predicted lines for O2 and CO2, based on your reasoning above. How might the location of the Urgent Need to Breathe line and the O2 Blackout Zone line differ for diving marine mammals? What physiological mechanisms account for each of these differences, resulting in the ability of marine mammals to stay submerged for long periods of time?
