Biology
1 answer:
nignag [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

For the sake of continuous life flow, advantageous traits are more likely to be passed onto offspring

Explanation:

Advantageous traits are the traits that have helped the parents to survive in adverse condition. These advantageous traits being helpful in survival are passed on to the next generation so that they can also survive and reproduce fertile and viable offspring.  

As per Darwin’s theory an organism develop advantageous traits to be fit among its group member and hence survive and reproduce.

For the sake of continuous life flow, advantageous traits are more likely to be passed onto offspring

Which of the following are contributing factors to the extinction of species?
meriva

Answer:

Deforestation

Climate Change

Invasive Species

Explanation:

Seventy percent of the Earth's plant and animals dwell in forests, and deforestation affects them directly. Once their habitat is lost, they are on their way to extinction.

Climate change also causes extinctions not only as a result of species intolerance to high temperature, but more commonly via a variety of related factors that alter a species’ interactions with other species.

Invasive species invade foreign territory. They use resources that the other species depend on. Then naturally one of the species will die off.

Describe the source of food for the first 3 levels in the food chain and explain why it takes less land, water, air to produce a
Ronch [10]
This question is incomplete as the specific food chain is not provided. In general, a food chain will have a primary producer at the base of the chain. This is an organism that is able to utilise a form of energy to convert carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to a carbohydrate. For terrestrial food chains, these are typically plants, who by utilising the energy from the sun, are able to convert carbon dioxide to carbohydrates. The subsequent level in the food chain may be a primary consumer, typically herbivores, that consume plant matter. Subsequent links in the chain would typically be secondary consumers, who would be carnivores, omnivores or decomposers. Carnivores would typically be predators and would be at the apex of the food chain. Energy is lost from one link to the subsequent link in the food chain, through basic respiration and inefficient energy transfer from one link to another. This explains why more resources (land, water and air) are required to grow meat rather than plant matter. More of the sun's energy is available within the lower trophic levels in a food chain, before much of it is lost as energy moves up the food chain. An easy example to illustrate this is that much of the livestock raised in the USA is fed grain. If people rather ate the grain than the livestock, they could obtain all their required energy from a smaller amount of grain then would be needed to raise the meat they require.
