Phylum is the correct answer
Answer:
New York City: temperate deciduous forest
Seattle: temperate wet forest
Explanation:
New York City is characterized by a <u>Temperate Deciduous Forest biome</u>. This indicates that its climate is not stable but, instead, faces constant changes. The seasons are clear and marked, e.g. summer is warmer and trees begin to lose their leaves during fall (as it is supposed to be). New York's biome is also characterized by the presence of rain throughout the year. Plants such as conifers and mosses are predominant and wildlife species like red foxes, squirrels, and owls inhabit in this city / biome.
Seattle, on the other hand, is characterized by a T<u>emperate Wet Forest biome</u>, that is, warm and dry-summer subtropical climate. The seasons are marked but not as predominantly as in New York. Seattle is also characterized by more humid conditions in contrast to New York. Moreover, summers tend to be drier and warmer, making it more vulnerable to bushfires. Plants such as the western red cedar and the ponderosa pine are predominant and wildlife species like deers, coyotes, and bears inhabit in this region.
The factors were latitude, elevation, nearby water, and ocean curents. All of these factors affect earth's climate.
The statement 'identical to the parent' will be added to the venn diagram for asexual reproduction. This is because, sexual reproduction always give rise to offspring that are different from their parents while asexual reproduction give rise to offspring that are identical to their parents.
Answer:
Two adaptations of Darwin's Finches that helped them to survive are:
- Behavioral adaptations to use tools for foraging.
Explanation:
There are fourteen species of Darwin's finches that originated from a single species of ground dwelling seed eating finch.
These Finches occupied different niche in the Galapagos island and were widely studied by Darwin.
These finches are one of the best Examples of Adaptive radiation.
Studies state that during severe drought in Galapagos island most vegetation dried out and a few softer seeds were left.
These few seeds were quickly fed upon by the birds and only dry , hard seeds were left.
Only birds who had large and hard beaks could feed on these hard dry seeds.
To Ensure survival the Finches developed adaptations which resulted in hard and large beaks so that they can feed on those dried hard seed.
Some groups started feeding on insects and got their beaks adapted to capture and kill insects.
Second line of adaptation included changes in behaviour and cognitive intelligence where birds started using tools for foraging.
