Decommissioned oil rigs are sometimes converted to artificial reefs in the Gulf of Mexico. What is the likely impact to the ecosystem by creating artificial reefs around these retired oil rigs? a
The large fish population will increase, but the small fish population will decrease.
b
Biodiversity is increased throughout the ecosystem.
c
Biodiversity remains the same because organisms do not like man-made structures
d
Invasive species of fish move into the ecosystem because there are no natural predators.

Dwarf galaxies are select one: a. relatively rare. b. not very bright c. mostly spiral shaped. d. none of these.

Scenario 5 1) take 10 red and 10 black beans and place them, mixed, on the table. record the starting phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your starting population in the table provided (generation 0). 2) act as a predator. “capture” as many organisms as you can until you have reduced the population to three organisms. put them aside. at this point, the predators die. 3) the remaining organisms each produce 2 clonal offspring. multiply your organisms accordingly and allow them to mix on the table. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 1). 4) repeat the reproduction event, allowing each of your organisms to produce 2 clonal offspring. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 2). 5) repeat the reproduction event, allowing each of your organisms to produce 2 clonal offspring. calculate and record the resultant phenotype # and frequencies (% of your total population) of your population in the table provided (generation 3).
