After a volcanic eruption, ecosystems undergo a series of events known as succession. a study done by ecologists on mount st. helens concludes that primary succession occurs when lupines are able to enrich the soil. lupines are a nitrogen-fixing plant well adapted to colonizing sterilized ecosystems. however, the progression of the lupine is slowed by a certain predatory caterpillar. what would be the most successful strategy for ensuring succession in an area where lupines and the caterpillars both colonize? a) introduce a controlled fire to begin secondary succession b) move the caterpillar populations to a different area c) spread lupine seeds to increase the density of growth d) replace the lupines with another type of plant

Cultures of the lake of the ozarks water samples were grown on enrichment media for identification. however, these organisms are present to some degree in all samples. an important question from a clinical perspective is whether or not there is a significant increase in the fecal coliform populations that would put people's health at risk. if you were part of the team investigating this outbreak, how would you best enumerate the fecal coliform threat? view available hint(s) cultures of the lake of the ozarks water samples were grown on enrichment media for identification. however, these organisms are present to some degree in all samples. an important question from a clinical perspective is whether or not there is a significant increase in the fecal coliform populations that would put people's health at risk. if you were part of the team investigating this outbreak, how would you best enumerate the fecal coliform threat? direct microscopic counts filtration count culture serial dilution count culture plate count culture
