2)
what would all of the black bears living in the chattahoochee forest comprise?
a) a school
b) a community
c) a population
eliminate
d) an abiotic factor

3)
any abiotic or biotic factor in an ecosystem that causes a population’s size to slow or decrease is a factor.
a) growth
b) limiting
eliminate
c) carrying
d) density dependent

1. Option C

2. Option C

3. Option B

Explanation:

1. The common food of hair-streak (Strymon melinus) is fruits and flowers of  clover, buckwheat, pea family , mallow species and several other plants. If in case the entire clover plantation is removed from this location, it is for sure that the larva of hair streak will face deficiency of food in the area and thus its survival would become difficult and thus the population of hair-streak would go down

2. Black bears in Chattahoochee Forest are found only in those areas where food is available, once the food get exhausted they move to a new place. In this way black bears are a population  Eliminate as where ever they go they consume/destroy the food and leave nothing for other species to feed themselves and survive.

3.

The population is decreased or slowed down by all limiting factors. Hence, here all abiotic and biotic factor hat causes a population’s size to slow or decrease is a limiting  Eliminate factor

dna damages cause changes in the structure of the genetic material and prevents the replication mechanism from functioning and performing properly. dna damage and mutation have different biological consequences. while most dna damages can undergo dna repair, such repair is not 100% efficient.
