Answer:

Because the living things need to survive somehow.

Explanation:

Malthus theory of population mention that this will increase in a geometric way, meanwhile the food to feed population will increase in an arithmetic way, so in one point, people will fight for food to survive.

Later, Darwin took this concept of struggling for surviving, how a couple of living things normally have double or triple of offspring, that means that by passing the time, there are more living things that the food that they can reach. He thought also, how a living thing can survive to the different conditions of the environment like heat, food, preys, etc. Later Wallace had the same conclusion about the natural selection but using different methods.

Hope this info is useful.

Answer:

Plate Tectonic theory

Explanation:

Plate tectonics is based on continental drift,  and seafloor spreading the three pieces of evidence that support this are those given by Alfred Wagner

As the Jigsaw fit between continents that were one at some point in time.

As the polar wandering or the flight to poles i.e how continents are drifted way to poles by forces of wind.

Presence of the same flora and fauna and glacial valley formation that were once a part of the same continent of Pangea and Gondwana.

The hypothesis ultimately got replaced by seafloor spreading as the drawbacks of drift theory which would not give sufficient evidence for the spreading away of continents. Earth's tectonic forces and internal sources of energy i.e heat produced by radioactive decay was not emphasized and Alfred's continuous orogeny could not have been possible.

Explain five reasons for high birth rates in LEDCs- Less Economically Developed Countries.
romanna [79]

Answer:

In developing countries children are needed as a labour force and to provide care for their parents in old age.

In these countries, fertility rates are higher due to the lack of access to contraceptives and generally lower levels of female education.

High fertility can impose costly burdens on developing nations.

In rural areas children are needed as labour on farms. In urban areas they are needed to work in the informal sector to earn money for their families.

Women have a large number of children as there is a high level of infant mortality
