Answer:

Feathers perform a number of functions for a bird:

1) They provide insulation, body temperature of most birds is maintained at around 40 C.

2) Feathers allow for flight.

3) Feathers control what a bird looks like by supplying the bird with colors.

Explanation:

Feathers insulate birds from water and cold temperatures. They may also be plucked to line the nest and provide insulation to the eggs and young. The individual feathers in the wings and tail play important roles in controlling flight. Some species have a crest of feathers on their heads.

Explain the specific mechanisms that have allowed for diversity in organisms
kirill115 [55]

There are five mechanisms involve in diversity of organisms:

genetic drift, mutation, natural selection, gene flow and non random mating.

Explanation:

Genetic drift: It is a mechanism in which frequency of the allele changes within a population due to random sampling. It causes decrease in diversity in organism and can result in new species.

Mutation: Mutation in the genes is the most important reason of diversity.the change in DNA causes introduction of new alleles. Harmful mutations do not le species evolve by delimiting them from reaching sexual maturity.

Gene flow: The allele flow happens when a new gene is introduced into a population either by immigration or random mating. when two populations of same species share genes, variation occurs.

Natural selection: The favourable traits for survival are transferred to the offspring. It allows them to adapt better to the environment.  It allows maintenance diversity of organism.

Non random mating: The mating between the individual with varied genotype will result in genetic variation.
