George Monbiot is spearheading the Rewilding Movement. The environmentalist and writer is prominent in the platform. He was featured in TED Talk and talked about a large scale conservation approach aiming to restore the lost habitats. Here is an excerpt of his speech where he discusses the lost megafuna:

"What megafauna, you say? Well, every continent had one, apart from Antarctica. When Trafalgar Square in London was excavated, the river gravels there were found to be stuffed with the bones of hippopotamus, rhinos, elephants, hyenas, lions. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, there were lions in Trafalgar Square long before Nelson's Column was built. All these species lived here in the last interglacial period, when temperatures were pretty similar to our own. It's not climate, largely, which has got rid of the world's megafaunas. It's pressure from the human population hunting and destroying their habitats which has done so."

Why do cells continue to divide in adult organisms?
vagabundo [1.1K]
Although most of the tissues in adult organisms maintain a constant size, the cells that make up these tissues are constantly turning over. Therefore, in order for a particular tissue to stay the same size, its rates of cell death and cell division must remain in balance.

Glycolysis occurs in almost all organisms on earth. From this we might conclude that __________. Glycolysis occurs in almost all
Hunter-Best [27]

Glycolysis evolved very early in ancestors that are common to all the domains of life.

This is because the site of glycolysis is cytoplasm which is present in both prokaryotes as well as eukaryotes.

As prokaryotes are the early ancestors of all domains of life therefore it is also considered that glycolysis is evolved very early.
