<span>Clouded Leopard are less abundant range wide than when last accessed in 2007. Some range countries have maintained status quo Clouded Leopard abundance, however, the majority of range countries have experienced moderate declines, with serious declines noted for Myanmar, Viet Nam and China. The causes of Clouded Leopard declines are attributed primarily to (1) direct exploitation, (2) range fragmentation, and (3) reduction in habitat quality. Clouded Leopard exploitation for pelts is well documented in several countries, including the infamous Tachilek market along the Thai–Myanmar border. The frequency of Clouded Leopard parts available at market indicates increased pressure from hunting (Oswell 2010). Ongoing deforestation in countries such as Myanmar and Cambodia is also leading to increased fragmentation and reduction of optimal habitat for Clouded Leopard.</span>
Answer:
Why do you need to start with 4x in magnification on a microscope? The 4x objective lens has the lowest power and, therefore the highest field of view. As a result, it is easier to locate the specimen on the slide than if you start with a higher power objective
Explanation:
Answer:
When an organisms reproduces asexually its offspring is identical, this means it has the same DNA code.
For example viruses look for specific protein types at cell membranes to "anchor" or "stick" and then inject their genetic material. If all the individuals of a population have the same membrane proteins the whole population is vulnerable to be infected by the virus.
Sexual reproduction creates genetic variability due to mechanisms like crossing over and the assortment of chromosomes during meiosis. On top of it, different parents contain different information which leads to offspring with similar but different characteristics which can end up having different membrane proteins that can save them from the virus.
None of these. all affect metabolic rate.
