This can be caused by over grazing from the livestock or even wild animals such as rabbits. Rabbits are known to breed very quickly and can destroy an ecosystem with their sheer numbers.
Answer:
Carbon based molecules have 3 main structures which are
straight chain
branched chains
rings
Explanation:
The structure or shape of carbon can be a straight chain, branched chained or in the form of rings. Examples of straight chain carbon includes propane, butane and pentane. Examples of branched chain carbons include members of the alkyl group like methyl and ethyl. Ring shaped carbons form structures in the form of rings like benzene which forms a six carbon ring. All these structures are made and dependent on the ability of carbon molecules to form four covalent bonds. Enormous, complex molecules can be formed by the binding of carbon chains to carbon rings. The carbon based molecules are very important as they are the basic buiilding blocks of life. Many important molecule like the DNA, RNA, lipids are made up of carbon atoms.
Answer:
Explanation:
they can not chose to adapt. adaptations occur over a very long period time(darwinism) Evolution is not selective in the sense that the organism being changed can choose.
Answer: Natural selection is the driving force to explain the mechanisms of evolution.
Explanation:
◼In a given population Organisms usually produce more offspring than what the environment can support.
◼ VARIATION, is driving force for the manifestation of sustainable inheritable characteristics from parents in a given population.
◼ Organisms, who acquired certain characteristics from variation; tend to survive than others, and therefore pass these inheritable characteristics to their offspring.
◼There is competition for the available resources among the offspring which leads to a stable population in size after a period of time.
◼Darwin deducted that, variants of best adaptation will be selected for by natural conditions operating in the environment of the population at that particular period (natural selection).Therefore natural selection takes place, and the organisms with best variation will have selective advantage above others. Consequently they have higher survival rates compare to others in the population.
This is survival of the fittest by natural selection
, this is the second conclusion of Darwin theory.
