Answer:
They remain in an environment,even as more competitive species arrive
Explanation:
Pioneer species, in ecological succession, are the first set of organisms to colonize a bare area of land or a disturbed area of land. Pioneer species include lichens, grasses, fungi etc.
Pioneer species have unique characteristics that distinguishes them from every other species of organism. These include:
- They facilitate environmental change, making an environment more habitable for other species.
- They tolerate a wide range of environmental conditions.
- They are capable of colonizing a barren environment, as in primary succession.
However, pioneer species do not remain in an environment, even as more competitive species arrive. They rather give way for new species to emerge and dominate.
Answer/Explanation:
In eukaryotes, photosynthesis occurs mainly in green plants. These organisms have specialized organelles called chloroplasts that carry out photosynthesis. These contain photoreceptors that absorb photons from the sun through a pigment called chlorophyll, providing the energy to synthesise glucose from carbon dioxide and water.
In contrast, prokaryotes that carry out photosynthesis are able to do so because they have folds in the plasma membrane that permit the attachment of chlorophyll. They do not have specialized membrane-bound organelles like eukaryotes.
The correct sentences are the following:
A) Antibiotic resistance in bacterial populations is caused by natural selection of bacteria that inherit mutations that make them resistant to the antibiotics.
C) Crossing-over causes a shuffling of allele combinations during meiosis as the alleles from each parent form new combinations on homologous chromosomes.
E) When two bacteria are linked during conjugation, the donor cell passes DNA to the recipient cell which causes genetic recombination.
Explanation:
These three options are associated with the generation and preservation of genetic diversity
The answer to your question is A.
Any herbivores would have thrived if left alive. same with the smaller predators like foxes or owls. populations shoot up. increase in inbreeding if the islands are isolated and eventually disease catches up with them
