erastovalidia [21]3 years ago
8 0

The correct answer is A. A burst of speciation

Explanation:

Adaptative radiation is part of evolution and occurs when a single organism or species diversify into a wide range of species (speciation), this process is called "adaptative" because the speciation occurs due to changes in the environment that make challenging survival usually due to the reduction of resources available and therefore organisms change to adapt to new conditions. Additionally, in adaptive radiation, the new organisms share traits with their common ancestor but also have different and unique traits. Considering this, it can be concluded adaptative radiation a burst of speciation.

At this boundary, crust is neither created nor destroyed.
salantis [7]

Transform boundary – this type of fault is found where two tectonic plates are moving alongside and parallel to each other mostly in opposite directions. This type of fault is also responsible for the rift valley and block mountains. No crust is destroyed nor new crust formed.

Convergent boundary – At this point, two tectonic plates are colliding because they are moving in opposite directions at each other. The pressure and stress of the collision force causes the plates to begin crumpling and folding at the boundary forming features such as fold mountains (an example is the Himalayas).

Convergent boundary – At this boundary , the denser of the two colliding tectonic plates (usually the oceanic plate) is subsided by the less dense one (usually the continental plate). The plate being subsided begins to melt as it does down into the mantle and becomes liquid rock. This magma rises through the fissures formed at the boundary and erupts into volcanic islands along the boundary.

Though plants, fungi, and prokaryotes all have cell walls, we place them in different taxa. Which of these observations comes cl
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Due to other differences.

Explanation:

The plants, fungi, and prokaryotes all have cell walls, we place them in different taxa because of the other differences such as mobility, mode of nutrition etc. Plants and fungi are not mobile means can not move from one place to another whereas prokaryotes are mobile. Fungi and prokaryotes are heterotrophs means that feed on other organism whereas plants are autotrophs means make their own food. There is also difference in their cell wall i.e. the cell of plants is composed of cellulose, the cell wall of prokaryotes especially bacteria is composed of peptidoglycans and the cell wall of fungi is composed of chitin.
