Answer: Extinction  

Explanation:  

The process by which the total number of organism of a particular species die due to some natural cause or man made cause is known as extinction.It is a part of evolution.

Here, in this case the extinction of native species took place because they could not survive while competing with the invasive species. This lead to mass extinction of the giant short faced bear.

. Arrange the following substances in order of increasing tendency to donate electrons
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

From lowest to highest tendency to donate electrons:

NADP+, Oxygen (O2), α–ketoglutarate, Malate, Oxaloacetate

Explanation:

Electron donors are those molecules that can easily lose an electron and are known as reducing agents.

Lower the electronegativity, better the electron donor it is

Oxygen is an oxidizing agent and hence, a strong electron acceptor and not a donor.

NADP+ state for this coenzyme functions as an ideal electron acceptor rather than an electron donor

A balanced polymorphism exist through disruptive selection in seed cracker finches from Cameroon in which small and large billed
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

c. Directional selection

Explanation:

There are three types of selection: stabilizing, directional and disruptive. Currently seed cracker finches show disruptive selection with respect to bills. In disruptive selection two extreme phenotypes are preferred in population over the mean phenotype. Here either, small or large bills are beneficial for birds so it is an example of disruptive selection.

If due to some climatic change all seeds would become hard, it would be more beneficial for birds to have large bills. Slowly nature will select for birds with large bills rather than birds with small bills. The selection now will shift to directional selection since only one of the extreme phenotypes is being favoured.
