Answer:
They remain in an environment,even as more competitive species arrive
Explanation:
Pioneer species, in ecological succession, are the first set of organisms to colonize a bare area of land or a disturbed area of land. Pioneer species include lichens, grasses, fungi etc.
Pioneer species have unique characteristics that distinguishes them from every other species of organism. These include:
- They facilitate environmental change, making an environment more habitable for other species.
- They tolerate a wide range of environmental conditions.
- They are capable of colonizing a barren environment, as in primary succession.
However, pioneer species do not remain in an environment, even as more competitive species arrive. They rather give way for new species to emerge and dominate.
Answer:
The mouse and shrew bones were common to all three owls so they were not useful in identifying environments. The gopher bones were unique to the great grey owl of Alaska. Gophers are rodents that are successful in areas with soft soil and lots of grass, so the gopher and this owl would be found in the meadows and evergreen forests of Alaska. The bat was unique to the barking owl of Australia. The bat would be found in woodland habitats where there are many trees the bat can hang from. The gull bones were unique to the short-eared owl of Cuba. Gulls are wetland birds, so the gull and this owl would be found in marshes and coastal areas.
Answer:
This may be the case because of the placements of the spread. While one is more cluttered, the other is a bit more spread apart. Meaning that the GeoChart on the right must have more cases, exactly because of their population.
A virus is a tiny organism and may lead to mild-severe illnesses in animals or plants or humans.
Biologically we can term virus as a bit of RNA or DNA in a protein coat. It cannot replicate without another organism.
If we use an image of indicator, we may say yes virus is living. This is because the virus particle is non-cellular but has an NDA core.This core is enclosed in a protein coat and it has spike-like projections in all over its surface.
