Answer:

The pioneer species are defined as those species that are very strong and hardy and also they have the capability of enriching the soil particles that favor their growth and development.

The lichens are considered to be a good pioneer species because they have the ability to settle on the surface of the bare rocks, where they can produce acid that allows the rock to disintegrate and results in the generation of soil particles.

Thus, the lichens are a pioneer species that can evolve rapidly after an eruption of a volcano.

Answer:

Evolution is the biological process that happens over time in a population, giving rise to new species. The theory of evolution states that all organisms alive on Earth today have a common ancestor which lived years ago.

Explanation:

Evolution is one of the fundamental reason of diverse life on Earth today. Principally, this process takes place by changes in genetic elements via mutations and crossing-over. The positive changes (mutations) allow the organism to develop better condition in order to survive in changing environmment. However, if the changes takes place at major scale, it also leads to the creation/development of new species. To explain this further, I have added a photograph where we can see how different organisms were evolved in the history of Earth.

Friends: Shut up lose-

Teacher: Guys shut up, Nicko.. can you explain more detail?

Nicko: After doing calculations we realize the vehicle did not travel nearly as far as our thought it would when it used the gallon of gasoline.

Teacher: What's your opinion about that Nicko?

Nicko: I claims that the energy could not have been destroyed, but cannot determine what happened to all of the energy.

Bob: It's my turn

Teacher: Nicko, you can go home now.

Nicko: Thank you teacher!

Hello?? Can anyone help me??! PLEASE

Answer:

The temperature is staying the same. In the graph when it shows solid/liquid and liquid/gas, the temperature stays the same until it changes. This is because it reached it's melting point/vaporizing point. For example, a solid gets heated up, it then reaches it's melting point but it can't go higher than that because it isn't fully a liquid yet, once it's a liquid it will then continue to rise in temperature.

I don't think I put enough detail into that explanation but I hope this helps your problem.
