Textbook Question
Chapter 4, Problem 3CT
Dixie Bee wanted to make JELL-O shots for her next party, but felt guilty about encouraging her guests to consume alcohol. She tried to compensate for the toxicity of the alcohol by adding pieces of healthy fresh pineapple to the shots, but when she did, the JELL-O never solidified. What happened? Hint: JELL-O is mainly sugar and a gelatinous mixture of proteins.

Explain whether predators and scavengers are necessary or beneficial for an ecosystem.
magine that you are conducting research on fruit type and seed dispersal. You submitted a paper to a peer-reviewed journal that addresses the factors that impact fruit type and seed dispersal mechanisms in plants of Central America. The editor of the journal communicates that your paper may be published if you make ‘minor revisions’ to the document.
Describe two characteristics that you would expect in seeds that are dispersed by the wind. Contrast this with what you would expect for seeds that are gathered, buried or eaten by animals, and explain why they are different. (Editor’s note: Providing this information in your discussion will help readers to consider the significance of the research).
What is the difference between Uniporters, Symporters and Antiporters? Which of these are examples of active transport?
