Answer:
NO! They require a ton of attention, a large cage, and experience with birds. Parakeets are often marked as starter pets, but no, they are not.
First, they need a 3 feet long cage with 5+ toys that need to be changed each month. And they need natural perches, not the cheap wooden dowels, they will get feet problems. Most people don't do this, having a bored pet.
Second, parakeets will chew anything given/available to them, and a lot of things can be toxic to them, which can lead to the death of your pet.
Third, parakeets are messy and noisy. They poop a LOT and love to toss seeds around their cage. They also need millet and a calcium chew, which are also messy.
They also will want a friend, they are flock animals in the wild so 3-4 birds is a good number, but getting more birds means getting a large cage. The pet store will tell you it's fine, but it is not. ALWAYS SEEK HELP FROM A BIRD BREEDER.
Lastly, they need a bird proofed room to fly around in. No matter how large your cage is, they still need some out-of cage time.
Try a dove or pigeon instead, they are listen the #1 easiest and cheapest to care for pet bird.
Nitrogen fixation is the process where atmospheric nitrogen is converted by bacteria into biologically usable forms.
plant can not take nitrogen directly from the leaves.
Lipids are NOT made of nucleotides. Nucleotides are the building block for nucleic acid, if that answers your question.
Answer:
variation
Explanation:
Genetic variation is what makes us all unique as a result of subtle changes in our DNA. The Theory of Evolution is a process in which organisms change over time as a result of adapting to their environment. Charles Darwin came up with the term Survival of the fittest, in any environment plants and animals from the same species show natural variation in their physical characteristics, like neck lengths in giraffes. Darwin suggested that the plants and animals best suited to the environment will survive and pass on their characteristics to their offspring. Over time, the characteristics of the surviving members of the species will become predominant.
Example: Peppered moth
In London in the 1800's, 98% of peppered moths had light colored bodies and only 2% were dark. The light moths were the same color as the trees so they could easily hide from hungry birds and not get eaten. The dark moths however were easy to see and were eaten. Then came the factories and smoke of the industrial evolution and many trees turned black with soot and suddenly the dark moths were able to survive better as they now looked like the trees and the light colored moths were easier to spot and eat. By 1895 the dark peppered moths made up 95% of the population and the light colored moths only 5%. This is an example of natural selection, because of the gene that makes the moths dark, it allowed them to flourish when the environment changed, they adapted, reproduced and survived.
Once energy from the Sun gets to Earth, several things can happen to it: Energy can be scattered or absorbed by aerosols in the atmosphere. ... Light colored surfaces are more likely to reflect sunlight, while dark surfaces typically absorb the energy, warming the planet.
