5. a) A scientist measures the rat population in an ecosystem. The population follows a logistical growth curve. When the rat population reaches 2,000, the rats begin to compete with each other for resources.
They reach a carrying capacity of 5,000. Draw the growth curve for the rats on the graph below. Label the
point where they begin competing and where they reach carrying capacity. (6 points)

meiosis is the first to occur after the nuclei of opposite of opposite mating types fuse

the solute can move "downhill," from regions of higher to lower concentration, relying on the specificity of the protein carrier to pass through the membrane. this process is called passive transport or facilitated diffusion, and does not require energy.

that would be called plucking : )

explanation:

''plucking, also referred to as quarrying, is a glacial phenomenon that is responsible for the erosion and transportation of individual pieces of bedrock, especially large "joint blocks". as a glacier moves down a valley, friction causes the basal ice of the glacier to melt and infiltrate joints (cracks) in the bedrock."
