Hyram fills a Petri dish with agar, which is a growth medium for bacteria. Then he raises a colony of bacteria in a Petri dish. For the first week, he observes the colony double in number every 1.5 days. Then he predicts that during the second week, the pattern of exponential growth will change to a pattern of logistic growth. If Hyram’s prediction is correct, which MOST likely will be the cause of the change in the growth pattern of the bacteria?

(A) The rate of bacterial reproduction will decrease gradually over time in any growth medium.

(B) The amount of agar in the Petri dish will act as a limiting factor on the bacterial colony.

(C) A random mutation will produce bacteria that cannot reproduce, and so they die off quickly.

(D) As the bacteria population increases, the sizes of individual bacteria will become smaller.

(E) As the bacteria population increases, the rate that bacteria reproduce will increase.

Populations of blue-winged warblers, a type of bird, migrate south in the winter and return to canadian breeding grounds in the spring. as global temperatures have increased due to climate change, spring has started arriving in the warbler's breeding grounds earlier in the year, before the warblers return. warblers now arrive at their breeding grounds too late to select ideal nesting sites and to feed on important early-spring food sources how are populations of blue-winged warblers most likely to be affected by the earlier arrival of spring? o a. populations will go extinct since the warblers will stop migrating to breeding grounds. b. populations will be unaffected since most species can quickly adapt to effects of climate change. c. populations will increase since warmer temperatures are generally beneficial to survival, d. populations will decline since individuals will be less likely to successfully reproduce, reset next
