What are some reasons why a lion would not want to use all 15,000 kcal of energy on hunting? Select all that apply.
She won't have enough energy left over for other activities she needs to do throughout the day.
She won't have enough energy left for her resting metabolic rate.
She will have to eat 30,000 kcal to make up for the energy lost.
She could become too weak to hunt and die.
Which of the following is true about how many of each prey a lion hunts per day?
The more energy available from the prey the more of that prey they must hunt.
The less energy cost to hunt the prey the less of that prey they must hunt.
The more net energy the prey provides the more of that prey they must hunt.
The energy cost to hunt the prey must be less than the energy the lion has stored.
What is net energy gain?
Energy gained by eating the prey
Energy gained by eating the prey minus the energy lost by hunting the prey
Energy gained by eating the prey plus energy lost by hunting the prey
Number of prey hunted multiplied by the energy available from the prey
Based on the Life as a Hunter Lab, what is the requirement for an animal to be beneficial for a lion to hunt alone?
energy cost must be more than 13,500 kcal
total energy gained must be more than 100,000 kcal
net energy gained must be more than 13,500 kcal
energy available from the prey must be less than 170,000 kcal
Based on the Life as a Hunter Lab, which of the prey did not give an individual lion enough energy to survive?
meerkat
warthog
wildebeest
zebra
Based on Life as a Hunter Lab, which of the prey had an energy cost that was too high for a lion to hunt alone?

zebra
Which of the following ways for a lion to hunt is the most energy efficient?
Hunting smaller prey less often
Hunting smaller prey more often
Hunting larger prey less often

gene
a sequence of DNA that codes for a heritable trait
traits inherited from the parents
the DNA in a cell organized by size and staining pattern
a threadlike structure of DNA packaged with proteins
allele
a sequence of DNA that codes for a heritable trait
alternate forms of a gene that lead to different traits
the DNA in a cell organized by size and staining pattern
a threadlike structure of DNA packaged with proteins
genotype
a sequence of DNA that codes for a heritable trait

Which of the following best describes the inheritance of A1 chromosome for the lion shown in this karyotype?
The inherited a M allele from one parent and an O allele from the other parent.
They inherited both a M and an O allele from their father.
They inherited both a M and an O allele from their mother.
They inherited an M allele from one parent and a mutation caused the O allele to form.
