The given question is incomplete, the complete question is:
Demographic Transition and Clear Cutting a. The consequences of a growing human population have been a concern since the times of Thomas Malthus when he proposed that humans could exceed their carrying capacity on Earth.
i. Describe the concept of carrying capacity for a species. ii. Describe how a change in the availability of a specific resource can affect the carrying capacity of a species
Answer:
i) The maximum population of the specific species, which can be maintained within a particular environment is termed as the carrying capacity of that species. It relies upon the accessibility of water, food, shelter, habitat, and all the other resources.
ii) The defining factor of the carrying capacity of a species is the accessibility of resources. The increase in the population of a species can result in a deficiency of resources and this will eventually cause a reduction in the population of that species. Certain factors like scarcity of food, water, or even because of certain diseases the carrying capacity will reduce resulting in a reduction of the population.
Answer & explanation:
The theory of continental drift emerged a long time ago. When mapping some points on Earth, scholars suspected that the continents were united in the past.
Francis Bacon suggested in 1620 that the east coast of the South American continent and the west coast of Africa fit together perfectly, giving the impression that they had parted in the remote past. A similar observation to this had already been made by another scholar named Abraham Ortelius, around 1596.
A century later, hypotheses became a scientific theory with previously elaborated arguments. Then, the theory of Continental Drift was officially born, when the German Alfred Wegener formulated it in 1912, establishing that the Earth had been divided, in its slow fragmentation, into two great continents, Laurasia and Gondwana.
