Organisms that originated in a certain geographic region and can only be found in that region are said to be ____.
aleksklad [387]

Organisms that originated in a certain geographic region and can only be found in that region are said to be endemic.

Explanation:

Endemic organisms are taxonomic species (plants and animals) which originates and distributed only in specific geographic regions. This state of evolution is called endemism.

They are said to be native or indigenous to that particular region which can be an ecological habitat, an entire nation, an island, a mountain range etc. Certain parts are known for majority of their species being endemic like St. Helen Island, New Caledonia Island, Hawaiian Islands, Southern regions of Africa, and Australia.

The species becomes endemic to a particular region because of the presence of certain bio-geographical environmental qualities of that habitat which are favorable to that species.

When these conditions become unfavorable, then species becomes restricted leading to endangerment or extinction of the species.

Examples:

  1. Kangaroo - Australia
  2. Nilgiri Tahr, - Nilgiri Hills, India
  3. The Redwood trees of West Coast of the USA
  4. Plants like kalo, sumac of Hawaii

The Salinas River empties into the Pacific Ocean and cuts into the continental shelf , thereby forming which of the following fe
katrin2010 [14]
The continental shelf is a gently sloping feature found at the edge of a continental landmass going seaward from the coast. Rivers that empty into the sea can produce currents that are strong enough to erode the material that builds the shelf. When this occurs channels or submarine canyons are formed. These canyons are deep and dark as no light can penetrate these regions. The canyons often lead out to sea towards the edge of the shelf.
