Explanation:
The questions are closely related to ecosystemic services and how humans make use of it. Let us first review theoretical concepts, and then discuss the rating of the questions.
Ecosystem services refer to all the benefits that human beings can get from ecosystems, not only for survival but also for good life quality. There are four types of ecosystem services:
• Provision or supply:
These are the products obtained by nature to be used or consumed, directly or with previous processing. Among them, we might mention food, clear freshwater, fertile soils, geotic materials, raw materials (used for clothing, construction), renewable fuels, biochemical compounds, pharmacological/medicinal resources, among others.
• Regulation:
Refers to ecological processes that improve life. Among others, we might mention climate regulation, CO² absorption, water purification, air purification, erosion control, natural disaster avoidance such as flooding, soil fertility maintenance, waste recycling, pest/plague control, etc.
• Cultural:
Refers to not the material benefits. Ecosystems also provide a recreational place or area to spend time, learn, enjoy spiritual/religious space, and are a source of inspiration. It is considered to be cultural patrimony and the source of scientific knowledge.

I answered the questions from my personal point of view, and considering 5 as the most important topic, and 1 as the less important. So, from most important to less important is 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
❑How much do you depend on natural ecosystems that you use for recreation (camping, fishing, hunting, hiking, swimming, boating)?
Probably, we as species, do not need these activities to survive. However, we need them to have good mental health. These are activities that we enjoy and that produce satisfaction. Whenever we do things that we enjoy our organism secretes hormones that make us feel happy. This feeling is important when people are stress about any personal situation. So, this question does not get the highest rate, but it gets a significant one, a 4.
❑How much do you depend on natural ecosystems for the food you eat?
Basically, we depend on nature and the ecosystem to get food and any kind of supply. If the ecosystems are damaged and altered, there is a general disbalance, and every form of life is affected. Some species might even get extinct. If we keep damaging the environment as we are doing currently, we will get to the point of not having any supply available to survive. So this is one of the most important questions, which gets the highest rate, a big 5.
❑How important is preserving natural ecosystems to you?
This question is closely related to the anterior one. It is very important for us as a species to realize that we depend on nature 100%, that we need to take care of it and preserve ecosystems all around the world. With no healthy and equilibrated ecosystems, we do not get to survive. So this is the other question that gets the highest rate, 5.
❑How willing are you to sacrifice things in your life to make sure that natural ecosystems stay unharmed in the future?
This one is kind of difficult to answer, We could say that we are 100% willing to sacrifice to make sure ecosystems stay unharmed. However, we are so used to consumption, technology, confort, an easy lifestyle, and etc, that would be really difficult for us to sacrifice everything that we are used to. Just imagine yourself giving up your cellphone or your computer. Technology is one of the most polluting industries in the world. But we depend so much on it, that seems almost impossible to imagine us without it. This is why my score for this question is a 4. Personally, I surely would sacrifice too many useful things, but I find it hard to sacrifice some others.

Which type of protein would more likely be able to function as a channel through the plasma membrane
Answer:
Aquaporins
Explanation:
Aquaporins are the channel proteins that is present in the membrane of the cell which allow water to cross the membrane very quickly. This aquaporins play an important roles in plant cells, red blood cells, and certain parts of the kidney where this protein minimize the amount of water lost as urine. Without this protein, the diffusion of water across the cell membrane is not possible very quickly.

During intense exercise, the muscle cells require constant supply of ATPs but the supply of oxygen is low. In that case - the muscle cells of the person will switch from which to which pathway?
Answer:
Aerobic to lactic acid fermentation pathway
Explanation:
ATP, which is the usable form of energy in living cells, is obtained via a process called RESPIRATION. However, aerobic respiration requires a constant supply of oxygen to occur. Hence, during an intense exercise where the supply of oxygen is low, the muscle cell has to switch from the respiration pathway that requires oxygen to one that doesn't.
Fermentation is a kind of cellular respiration that does not require oxygen to occur. In the muscle cells of animals (humans inclusive), lactic acid is the product of the fermentation process, hence, it is called LACTIC ACID FERMENTATION. This means that the muscle cells, in a low supply of oxygen, will switch from AEROBIC to LACTIC ACID fermentation pathway.
4. Describe an observation you made today and an inference you can make from that observation.
Answer:
my my teacher gives my class and I a mystery box for us to observe what's inside that box it was closed, as we was trying to know what's inside that box we were looking and thinking what does it sounds like, but my friend next to me says it sounds like a stapler and my other friend said it's not very heavy, as we were we said we could take another box just like that identified box and put a stapler since it sounds like a stapler and it's not that heavy as we know staplers are not that heavy. well we did that we check and our activity shows that the mystery box it slides and appear to be flat and all the box it slides in appear to be flat so that's the same thing as our box and the mystery box and we were looking at how does it sound when we close the box and everything we were checking how does it sound as we are observed that the mystery box it makes a metallic song when it strikes the side of the box an hour box the stapler makes a thudding sound when it strikes the side of the box and we also checked if the mass of the box was the same but it wasn't the mystery box was 270 g and our box was much more heavier which is 410 g so we were checking what was the really wrong thing we was checking and checking is like what should we do next, and we did in for the things in the box had to be different because our observation of the two boxes are different, and we observed yes things are different of course.
and there's a picture with the observation chart I will be showing it's above take a look and you will be have more understanding and knowledge about the really topic I am talking about thank you.

What happens if a person has one kidney removed? 1 point a. They will continue as normal b. They will stop making urine c. They will accumulate excess urea D. They will die.
In general, most people with a single, healthy kidney have few problems. However, some long term problems have been seen in some people.
In some people who were born with a single kidney, or had a kidney removed during childhood, there is a chance of some slight loss in kidney function later in life. This usually takes 25 years or more to happen. There may also be a chance of having high blood pressure later in life. However, the loss in kidney function is usually very mild, and life span is normal. Most people with one kidney live healthy, normal lives with few problems. - kidney . org

Fill in the blank question. The initial effect of a stimulus on a sensory receptor is a small, local change in membrane potential called a(n)
Answer:
The initial effect of a stimulus on a sensory receptor is a small, local change in membrane potential called a(n) receptor potential.
Explanation:
The process used by sensory receptors to transform the physical energy of the sensory stimulus into action potentials, the fundamental unit of information in the nervous system, is called sensory transduction. The entrance of positive charges towards the interior (mainly Na +), will cause a depolarization; while if there is an exit of positive charges from the interior (mainly K +) then hyperpolarization will occur. This change in membrane potential is called the receptor potential. A receptor potential is then a local potential that can sometimes represent the only response that results from the transduction process, for example in the taste sensory cell.
A population of rabbits has individuals with fur coloring that ranges from white to brown. The population lives in a temperate deciduous forest where the summers are mild and average about 50°F. The winters are often below freezing.
If warmer temperatures last longer into the fall and the average temperature in the winter is getting warmer, what do you expect to happen to the population?
The percentage of the population with brown fur will decrease.
The percentage of the population with white fur will decrease.
The population will increase in size, but the color percentages will remain unchanged.
The population will decrease in size, but the color percentages will remain unchanged.
Answer:
The best option for this problem would be the second option: "The percentage of the population with white fur will decrease"
Explanation:
Think about animals up in the north. Most of them are white because it helps them blend in the snow. And so an increase in average temperatures would mean less snow time. This would mean that the white rabbits will be more vulnerable to attacks for a longer time period of the year compared to previous years with a short time period of being vulnerable.

What would most likely happen to this ecosystem if all of the gray wolves were removed?
Answer:
D. The fox population would decrease
Explanation:
The food web shows that the gray wolves population are the only population that prey on the moose population. If the gray wolves were removed, the population of moose would increase significantly and would dominate the ecosystem. This means that other herbivores won't be able to compete with the moose population for the forages and vegetation in the ecosystem. The population of the other primary consumers/herbivores will reduce also. By implication, the fox which depend on other smaller preys to feed on would not have much prey to feed on. The ultimate effect of the removal of the gray wolves would lead to a later decrease in the population of the fox

One student made the incomplete diagram shown below to represent the relationship between magma igneous rocks and metamorphic rocks.
Which of these is the correct next step to complete the diagram?
A. Put an arrow labeled cools and crystallizes pointing from igneous rocks to metamorphic rocks
B. Put an arrow labeled cools and crystallizes pointing for metamorphic rocks to igneous rocks
C. Put an arrow labeled heat and pressure points in from igneous rocks to metamorphic rocks
D. Put an arrow labeled heat and pressure pointing from metamorphic rocks to igneous rocks
Answer:
C. Put an arrow labeled heat and pressure pointing from igneous rocks to metamorphic rocks
Explanation:
Metamorphic rocks are changed rocks that are formed from pre-existing rocks that were once sedimentary or igneous rocks. Heat and pressure majorly act on igneous rock, which over time change these rocks into a different rock entirely, known as metamorphic rocks.
Therefore, the next step to complete the diagram will be:
"C. Put an arrow labeled heat and pressure pointing from igneous rocks to metamorphic rocks."
what is a skeleton and give two characteristics of a mammal
A skeleton is a structural frame that supports an animal body.
The skeletal system of mammals and other vertebrates is broadly divisible functionally into axial and appendicular portions.
There are two major types of skeletons: solid and fluid. Solid skeletons can be internal, called an endoskeleton, or external, called an exoskeleton, and may be further classified as pliant (elastic/movable) or rigid (hard/non-movable).
Fluid skeletons are always internal.
The presence of hair or fur.
A four-chambered heart.
Answer: well I know the skeleton is the bone structure in some living organisms if there a vertebrate
