Scientists estimate that there are between 700,000 and 5.1 million fungi on the planet. From your reading of "The fungi: 1, 2, 3

... 5.1 million species?" by Meredith Blackwell, briefly describe (2–4 sentences) two reasons that this estimate is so broad. In other words, why are recent estimates of fungal species diversity so varied?

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

1. This is because there is varying degrees or amounts of habitats and areas that yet to be assessed and examined when carrying out the estimates of fungal species diversity which leads to a broad range of estimates.

2.  Also, with the increments in the numbers of different species accumulation that has currently been discovered; a 1.2% increase in species is discovered every year,

Hence, it is ideal to conclude that a large number of species are being discovered in the later research which is making the estimates to be different.

Drag each tile to the correct box.<br> Arrange the layers and faults from oldest to youngest.
kaheart [24]

The answers would be:

Layer D

Layer C

Layer B

Layer A

Layer E

Fault F

If you'd like to know why, here's more about the question:

The law of superpo sition states that the lower the layer, the older the rock is.

Looking at the layers alone, we can say that D is the oldest, and C would be next, so on and so forth.

The law of cross - cutt ing relationships, on the other hand, states that a geologic event, like a fault, is younger than the layer that it goes through.

So if we look at the figure given, the fault goes through all the layers, so we can say that it is younger than all the layers.
