Do research about new hypothesis that has replaced an older explanation of something in the natural world

Gre4nikov [31]3 years ago

I believe that what is meant with the phrase "older explanation" is none other that superstition. Therefore, I will give you one superstitious belief which is now explained by science.

In Southeast Asia, people used to believe that St. Elmo's fire appears in remote areas because a bloody battle occured in that place leaving disembodied souls of the dead wandering there in the night and even in sunshine!

For generations, many people believed that this is a fact and some even say that these apparitions are diabolical or demonic in nature. So often, caution is advised to people whenever a ball of fire appears out in the open. 

However, recent breakthroughs in the 21st century helped scientists to explain this mysterious phenomena. They found out that St. Elmo's fire is actually plasma, nothing special. Now, plasma is considered one of the states of matter! But mind you, it still does not explain why St. Elmo's fire seems to have a mind of its own!

Answer: Sudden loss of habitat

Explanation:

Endangered species are animal or plant species that are in danger of going extinct.

This usually results from them suddenly losing their habitat and thus being exposed to unfamiliar conditions or threats that could end their existence. For instance, elephants losing their forest habitats in India and thus encroaching on farmland only to get shot for damaging farms.

There is little variety among organisms found in pools, ponds, and lakes.
aniked [119]
That's true. There is little variety among organisms found in pools, pounds and lakes. Despite that fact that many ponds are seasonal, lasting just a couple of month (for exemple sessile pools) while lakes can exist for more than hundred years. Lakes and ponds have limited species diversity because they are often limited from each other and from other water sources like rivers, seas and oceans.
