Determine whether the following species are extinct, endangered, or threatened. The Tasmanian tiger, the largest known carnivorous marsupial, was wiped out of the wild due to constant hunting:
The Amur leopard is now gone from most of its original habitat due to human activity. Only twenty to thirty Amur leopards remain in the wild:
Western Lowland gorilla populations have dropped sixty percent in the past twenty-five years due to poaching, habitat loss, and, mainly, disease. Their numbers are expected to keep dropping, and the species could soon disappear:
The Eastern gemfish population has declined due to commercial fishing. New protection efforts seem to be helping the population slowly recover:
The golden toad was forced from its breeding sites when erratic weather caused pools to dry up. No frogs have been found in over two decades:

1. Extinct

2. Endangered

3. Endangered

4. Threatened

5. Extinct

Explanation:

The Tasmanian tiger is extinct (wiped out 3,000 years ago).

The Amur leopard is endangered (only 20-30 remain in the wild).

Western Lowland gorillas are endangered (population is dropping and species is expected to disappear).

The Eastern gemfish is threatened (population hasn't drastically declined and conservation efforts are helping the population slowly recover).

The golden toad is extinct (no frogs have been found in over two decades).

(ur answers are 1. Extinct 2. Endangered 3 Endangered... 4. Threatened 5. Extinct

many other transport proteins, often called pumps, move materials against a concentration gradient. active transport drives molecules across a membrane from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration. this process, shown in figure 5.1, uses transport proteins powered by chemi- cal energy.
