The main reason for the difference in the mass extinction occurring today and previously is the pace of the current extinction. The extinction is taking place globally and involves hundreds of species at the same time. In less than 50 years, we have lost numerous species. In contrast to this, previously during the mass extinction, only a few species were lost, and other managed to survive. But, not the status is opposite due to the magnitude of the extinction.
Answer:
Study it under a microscope!
Explanation:
Any organisms in the pond water are more than likely very, very small! Microscopic, even;)
Answer:
Stabilizing selection
Explanation:
The process of natural selection selects a species in one of the three ways: stabilizing selection, directional selection and disruptive selection.
During the process of stabilizing selection, nature does not favour the extreme phenotypes of the population but the intermediate phenotype with the maximum number of population.
In the given question, the Robin laid four eggs, neither more than four nor less than four which could have more disadvantages than the advantages. Since the intermediate number of eggs is favoured by nature therefore the stabilizing pattern is observed.
Thus, Stabilizing selection is correct.
