Answer:

Following are the ways captive breeding helps conserve biodiversity:

  1. Captive breeding can increase population numbers
  2. Captive breeding can help remove species from the Endangered Species List
  3. Captive breeding can result in the eventual release of offspring into the wild.

Explanation:

Captive Breeding:

Captive breeding is an ex-situ conservation technique (taking the animal out of its natural habitat to increase population numbers in zoos or sanctuaries). Captive breeding involves selective breeding of endangered species to help produce a sizable population that can later be introduced back into the wild when their habitat improves.

Captive breeding programs include zoos, sanctuaries located away from the animal's original habitat. For example, the Toronto Zoo has operated a captive breeding program for the Blanding's turtle since 2012. The turtles are kept their for 2 years after birth and then released back into the wild.

What are some examples of how a cell's structure relates to its function in the body?
irakobra [83]

The structure and shape of each type of human cell depends on what function it will perform in the body. For example, red blood cells (RBCs) are very small, flat discs, which allows them to easily fit through narrow capillaries and around sharp corners in the circulatory system to deliver oxygen throughout the body.

The elongated shape of muscle cells allows the contraction proteins to line up in an overlapping pattern that makes muscle flexing possible.

And human sperm cells’ structures allow them to “swim” long distances to reach an egg for fertilization
