The expansion of grasses led to the radiation of herbivores such as grazing mammals.
Explanation:
The grasses, unlike the popular belief, have not really existed on Earth for a long time. They are actually relatively new on the scene, only appearing around 25 million years ago, initially in South America. Since the grasses first appeared, they have been able to spread around the world very easily. The reasons for the expansion of the grasslands have been:
- dry climate
- small requirements for survival
- easy and fast growth
- fast reproduction
The grasslands influenced the animals and their evolution. They were new places, free for exploitation, and offered lot of nutrition. The herbivores, mainly the mammalian ones, started to adapt to the new environment, leading to rapid diversification and rise in their numbers. Some of the animals that have been the result of adaptation to the grasslands are:
- camels
- horses
- tapirs
- rhinoceroses
- elephants

a <u>continental convergent boundry</u> is when a continental and oceanic plates collide, the <em>thinner and more dense oceanic plate is overridden by the thicker and less dense continental plate</em>. The oceanic plate is forced down into the mantle in a process known as "subduction."

Answer:
The answer is CCD. The CCD, or the charge-coupled device was used in the Hubble Space telescope and was later adapted for commercial use. CCD is a light-sensitive circuit used for storing and displaying data such as images. This is also used in digital cameras today.
