How does genetic variation make a community more stable?

2 answers:

genetic variation in asexual species may have large effects on community and ecosystem functions, increasing their stability, productivity, and species richness.

Normally, members of an average community have downfalls in their DNA. However, as each being is completely different, different imperfections affect different people.

Now, imagine a community based on the offspring of two people. The imperfections passed on through the family line will grow stronger and stronger until a disease rare to normal human life strikes the family.

This is one of the reasons why incest is illegal (although still pretty gross even without that fact.)

How are gasoline and fat chemically similar?

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Gasoline and fat are chemically similar in that they are essentially hydrocarbons

Explanation:

Gasoline and fat are chemically similar in that they are essentially hydrocarbons, or chemical compounds that contain only carbon and hydrogen covelently bonded together. "Pure" gasoline is obtained by breaking down and distilling off lower boiling hydrocarbons from crude oil.

How is the euglena animal-like?

Maru [420]

has a whippy tail called a flagellum that allows it to move through the water. The euglena is different than other protozoans because it has chlorophyll in it, the substance that plants contain to make their own food. The euglena is then able to make its own food like a plant when it is in the sunlight.

Which is the least number of seismograph stations needed to locate the epicenter of a earthquake

Hunter-Best [27]

At least three seismograph stations are needed to locate the epicenter of a earthquake.

Further Explanation:

An earthquake occurs when two region of the earth slip past each other. Fault plane is the area where the slip occurs. Hypocenter is the region below the earth’s surface where earthquake starts while the epicenter is the region above it.

The earth consists of four major layer:

1. Inner core

2. Outer core

3. Mantle

4. Crust

Seismographs is an instrument used to record the earthquake. The recording done by this instrument is called as the seismograms.

The seismograph comprises of:

1. A base: is fixed tightly in the ground

2. Heavy weight: hangs freely

When the earthquake occurs, the ground shakes and in turn the seismograph also shakes while the hanging weight does not shakes. During the earthquake, the difference in the location between the shaking piece and the motionless piece is recorded. Magnitude of the earthquake is recorded as one for each earthquake. The magnitude of earthquake is measured by the Richter scale but is more commonly measured through moment magnitude scale.
