What ecological principles apply to the following scenario? Known as the "Hawaiian woodpecker," the akiapola' au (aki-a-pul-a-ow) is found only in montane mesic old-growth koa/ohi forests, and only on the Big Island (Hawail) It has a distinctive beak that is like a multiple-use tool. The short straight lower mandible is used to peck holes in the wood and the long curved upper le is used to probe for insects and larvae. Males have larger beaks than females and feed on the trunks of trees. Females feed higher on branches and twigs. Akiapola au are thought to have the lowest reproduction rate for a small bird -only one chick per year, which is cared for by the parents for 6 months or more. The decline in their numbers appears to correspond with the introduction of rats, cats, and logging on the island.

Proteins are the workhorses of the cell, controlling virtually every reaction within as well as providing structure and serving as signals to other cells. proteins are long chains of  amino acids  , and the exact sequence of the amino acids determines the final structure and function of the protein. instructions for that sequence are encoded in  genes  . to make a particular protein, a messenger ribonucleic acid (mrna) copy is made from the gene (in the process called  transcription  ), and the mrna is transported to the  ribosome  . protein synthesis, also called  translation  , begins when the two ribosomal subunits link onto the mrna. this step, called initiation, is followed by elongation, in which successive amino acids are added to the growing chain, brought in by transfer rnas (trnas). in this step, the ribosome reads the  nucleotides  of mrna three by three, in units called  codons  , and matches each to three nucleotides on the trna, called the anticodon. finally, during termination, the ribosome unbinds from the mrna, and the  amino acid  chain goes on to be processed and folded to make the final, functional protein
