The given question is incomplete, the complete question is:
Consider a scenario where a native plant population is growing at it's carrying capacity in a community. The seed of an invasive species is brought in by a squirrel, which then germinates, grows and reproduces resulting in the establishment a population of this invasive plant species. The invasive species has very similar niche as the native plant species. How do you predict the native plant population to be affected by the presence of this invasive species?
The invasive species fitness will be limited by the native plant species
The native plant carrying capacity will go down, relative to that prior to the invasive species arrival
There will be no change to the native plant population
The invasive species will grow unchecked and exponentially
No listed answer is correct
Answer:
The correct statement is the fourth one, that is, the invasive species will grow exponentially and unchecked.
Explanation:
The fitness of the invasive species will not get restricted by the native species. Though the opposite takes place as the original niche of the local species does not possess the natural predator for the invasive species. Therefore, invasive species emerge fitter and reproduce exponentially without population control.
The carrying capacity of the native species will not go down before the arrival of the invasive species, however, will go down post its arrival.
As the invasive species has no natural predators, one can witness a substantial reduction in the population of the local plant population. The invasive species will utilize the niche of the local plant, therefore, resulting in the reduction of the native species population, as they have share habitat, food resources, and other natural resources.
It is correct that the invasive species will grow without any control. An outbreak of invasive species generally takes place due to the absence of its natural predators in the ecosystem at the time of its introduction. Hence, the correct statement is the fourth one.
Invasive species establish in a new area, overgrow, and negatively interact with native species. The correct option is 4). The invasive species will grow unchecked and exponentially
-----------------------------------
Let us firts reviw some framework.
When talking about dispersion, we refer to the change in a species' range or distribution area.
When species move and establish in a new area, out of their original distribution range, they might be considered exotic or invasive, according to their
• reproductive rate,
• population growth, and
• interaction with native species.
The introduction of invasive species has ecological, economic, socio-cultural consequences.
Once an invasive species has been established, it overgrows.
In the new areas, these species have less environmental pressure and better conditions than in their origin area -fewer predators, more resources, better nitches-.
These factors favor their establishment because they are adapted to surviving under harder conditions.
They interact with native species by competing for resources such -water, place, radiation, exposure, shelter, food, etcetera-.
They can also become significant predators of native species, consuming a wide diversity of prey items, and in many cases, there are no native species that may prey on them.
They provoke significant damages in the structure of native ecosystems, causing severe damage in endemic species.
They produce ecological imbalances in the trophic chains and the dynamics of communities. Invasive species are uncontrollable.
As they expand, they can also affect human in an economic manner and has socio-cultural effects. Many invasive species might cause crops loss by eating cultures. They attack farm animals. They affect buildings and other structures or ships by eating wood. They might even attack humans and cause health problems.
According to this information, we can answer the question.
We need to predict how NATIVE species are affected by INVASIVE species.
The options are,
1) The invasive species fitness will be limited by the native plant species
When talking about invasive species, this is not an option. Invasive species always affect the fitness of native species. So this option is not correct.
2) The native plant carrying capacity will go down, relative to that prior to the invasive species arrival
The carrying capacity will still be the same. But resources availability will decrease faster because both species have the same requirements. They compete for the same resources. This option is not correct.
3) There will be no change to the native plant population
The will occur changes for the native population for sure. It will be affected by the presence of invasive species. So this option is not correct.
4) The invasive species will grow unchecked and exponentially
Invasive species population will express an uncontrol exponential growth during its establishment phase.
This plant species find the perfect conditions to reproduce and increase its population size.
It finds available space, no predators, water and nutrients availability, proper light exposure, among others.
They can successfully compete with native species, displacing them and getting more space.
THIS IS THE CORRECT OPTION
5) No listed answer is correct
Not correct

Pleaseeee help!!! (psychology edge) Androgens and estrogens are hormones that impact the sexual response cycle. Write about the four phases of that cycle and explain how the two types of hormones are involved.
Answer:
Females and males each have some amount of the sex hormones, androgens and estrogens. In males however, androgens like testosterone is more dominant and in females estrogens like estradiol are more dominant. The hormones both affect the sexual response cycle. The sexual response cycle has four phases: desire, arousal, orgasm and resolution. The desire phase can last anywhere from a few minutes to hours and includes physical changes like an increase in muscle tension, heartbeats quickening, flushed skin, and an increased flow of blood to genitals. The arousal phase extends to the brink of the orgasm phase, during this phase the changes experienced in the desire phase are intensified along with blood pressure increasing. The orgasm phase generally only lasts a few seconds and is the climax of the sexual response cycle, some characteristics include: Involuntary muscle contractions and spasms, blood pressure, breathing, and heart rate at their highest point, a release of built up sexual tension, and flushed skin. During the resolution phase the body returns to normal, often a sense of wellbeing and fatigue is achieved. To begin the cycle a male need a certain amount of the androgen, testosterone, but high levels in females tend to lead to more sexual thought and desires, typically though, women have relatively low levels of testosterone. In women, estrogens, such as estradiol are more common. Estrogens are produced when a girl starts puberty and helps her reproductive cycle begin. A high level of estrogen in men can lead to a reduced sex drive, loss of hair, or trouble focusing, but a normal level in men is crucial to proper erectile function.

Answer:At this point, it should be clear that eukaryotic cells have a more complex structure than do prokaryotic cells. Organelles allow for various functions to occur in the cell at the same time. Despite their fundamental similarities, there are some striking differences between animal and plant cells (see Figure 1).
Animal cells have centrosomes (or a pair of centrioles), and lysosomes, whereas plant cells do not. Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, plasmodesmata, and plastids used for storage, and a large central vacuole, whereas animal cells do not.

Scenario 1
When you think of the American Southwest, you probably think of cacti, both big and small. If you were to
visit the American Southwest today, you might be disappointed with the lack of variation among cactus
species, especially right off the major highways. In 1926, Route 66 was the nation's first major highway to
allow visitors to visit the Southwest. Like many tourists, these visitors wanted to take home a memento of
their travels. Many people would pull over and begin looking for their own living souvenir. Since many of the
tourists did not have the necessary tools to extract a spiny cactus out of the soil, they usually had to make a
conscious decision about what type of cactus they should dig up. The cacti with too many spines were seen
as too difficult to dig out, and the visitors likely didn't have gloves to protect their hands. The cacti with too
few spines were seen as homely and were often overlooked. Therefore, the tourists found a cactus that was
between these two extremes. Over the last century, the phenotypic variation within these small cacti has
changed (at least in areas accessible by these highways).

The correct sequence for the general adaptation syndrome is:_________
a) Exhaustion phase, alarm phase and resistance phase
b) Alarm phase, resistance phase and exhaustion phase
c) Resistance phase, exhaustion phase and alarm phase
d) Alarm phase, exhaustion phase and resistance phase
Answer:
The correct sequence for the general adaptation syndrome is: b) Alarm phase, resistance phase and exhaustion phase
Explanation:
The general adaptation syndrome describes what happens to our body when it is under stress.
The first phase is the Alarm phase. In this stage, the body activates the fight or flight response, causing an increase in adrenaline and cortisol, blood pressure, respiratory frequency, amongst other things that prepare us to react in a situation that we perceive as dangerous.
The second phase is the resistance one. During this phase, the body undergoes a different process that adapts it to manage the stress, with an elevated amount of cortisol and blood pressure.
The third phase is the exhaustion phase. If the stress levels continue to be high, the body passes to this stage. The body is exhausted and cannot keep dealing with stress, which causes mental and physical problems such as anxiety, depression, fatigue, stress-related illnesses, among other symptoms.
