All living beings are related in some way, and the proof is in our DNA. We share 98% of our DNA with chimpanzees, but we also share 20-something% of our DNA with lettuce

If an organism exceeds the range of tolerance what’s most likely to happen

beks73 [17]

Tolerance range refers to the range of conditions of the external environment an organism is able to withstand. The population size of a certain species can be lowered if conditions are outside optimum range. The population is lowered because the organisms cannot survive if there is too much or too little of a factor.

7. What causes greenhouse gasses to absorb heat when gasses like oxygen do not?

Scilla [17]

Answer:

Hope the below helps!

Explanation:

Greenhouse gases (such as methane, carbon dioxide etc) have lots of vibrating particles. These molecules eventually release radiation, which travels up Earth's atmosphere (because warm air rises), is trapped and adds to the greenhouse gas effect.

Oxygen and nitrogen don't interfere with infrared waves in the atmosphere. That's because molecules are picky about the range of wavelengths that they interact with.

I have attached a diagram that shows the greenhouse effect. It might help to visualise this.
