Biology
1 answer:
Viktor [21]3 years ago

Answer:

<em>The correct options are :</em>

<em>A)  The biodiversity will decrease because there are fewer species on the newly formed island. </em>

<em>D) The species on the island will likely have lower genetic diversity than the species on the mainland.</em>

Explanation:

When a larger population is broken down and a smaller population is formed, the genetic diversity in the smaller population will be lower as it has fewer species. As a result, options for genetic variations will be lesser. Hence, the landmass which drifted away will have lower biodiversity than the mainland. There will be more number of species on the mainland hence the genetic diversity will be more there.

Gathering information with your eyes is called.
horsena [70]
Gathering information with your eyes is called visual perception. Option “D” is considered the correct option. Under normal circumstances light is received by the eye. This light is then broken down into two parts and they are peripheral vision and central vision. The information then gets transferred to the brain which is then analysed to extract the actual information. This is place for getting the actual perception. This is how the visual perception works with the help of the eye.
