Answer:
I'm thinking maybe B, illustrates the principle of natural selection.
Explanation:
This example shows that, once a particular event happens in a species' ecosystem that negatively affects their lifestyle, natural selection occurs and kills off those with a disadvantageous adaptation (in this case the narrow-beaked finches, since they could no longer eat insects but did not have the beak size to crack seeds), allowing those with the advantageous adaptation (in this case, the thicker-beaked birds) to prosper.
All energy sources have some impact on our environment. Fossil fuels—coal, oil, and natural gas—do substantially more harm than renewable energy sources by most measures, including air and water pollution, damage to public health, wildlife and habitat loss, water use, land use, and global warming emissions.
Answer:
the maximum number of species that can live in an ecosystem.
Explanation:
The correct choice in this problem is that carrying capacity is the maximum number of species that can live in an ecosystem.
- An ecosystem provides resources for organisms contained within it.
- The maximum number of organisms that an ecosystem can successfully support is the carrying capacity.
- Several factors can determined the carriage of an ecosystem.
- It could be space, resources, mating partners, nutrients etc.
