The adaptive radiation is an evolutionary process in which diversification is appearing among a species, and it starts to fill in different ecological niches.

The members of the initial species, start to exhibit new behaviors, new ways of feeding, change in coloration, all in order to be better suited for a specific ecological niche.

What is the function of the mitochondria within a cell?

REY [17]

Mitochondria produce ATP through process of cellular respiration—specifically, aerobic respiration, which requires oxygen. The citric acid cycle, or Krebs cycle, takes place in the mitochondria. This cycle involves the oxidation of pyruvate, which comes from glucose, to form the molecule acetyl-CoA. Acetyl-CoA is in turn oxidized and ATP is produced.
