Why are there species instead of a continuum of various animals?
melamori03 [73]
Because evolution itself is a very slow process. Having said that, the chance of having a continuum of various animals would mean that evolution would have progressed very fast.

Margaret [11]

Primary succession occurs following an opening of a pristine habitat, for example, a lava flow, an area left from retreated glacier, or abandoned strip mine. In contrast, secondary succession is a response to a disturbance, for example, forest fire, tsunami, flood, or an abandoned field.In primary succession, newly exposed or newly formed rock is colonized by living things for the first time. In secondary succession, an area that was previously occupied by living things is disturbed, then re-colonized following the disturbance.
