What do you think really happened to the people of easter island?

Biology

BaLLatris [955]3 years ago

Easter Island is a small 63-square-mile patch of land — more than a thousand miles from the next inhabited spot in the Pacific Ocean. In A.D. 1200 (or thereabouts), a small group of Polynesians — it might have been a single family — made their way there, settled in and began to farm. When they arrived, the place was covered with trees — as many as 16 million of them, some towering 100 feet high.

These settlers were farmers, practicing slash-and-burn agriculture, so they burned down woods, opened spaces, and began to multiply. Pretty soon the island had too many people, too few trees, and then, in only a few generations, no trees at all.

The organic matter, or hydrocarbon raw material, is derived primarily from __________.
GarryVolchara [31]
The organic matter, or hydrocarbon raw material, is derived primarily from petroleum and natural gas.
Over 90% of the organic chemicals are produced from petroleum and natural gas routes nowadays. Even though the manufacturers search for alternatives because of the prices of the petroleum and natural gas, and look to replace them little by little, still these two are by far the dominant ones.

if a single-celled organism is unable to undergo cell division, which of its life functions is affected?
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

The correct answer would be reproduction.

Single-celled organisms usually reproduce asexually with the help of cell division.

Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction which takes place without the fusion of gametes and hence required only one parent.

Various types of asexual reproduction are fission (binary or multiple), budding, fragmentation, vegetative propagation etc.

Unicellular organism usually divide by fission either binary or multiple.

In binary fission, a parent cell divide into two equal sized daughter cells such as observed in bacteria.

In multiple fission, a parent cell divides into multiple daughter cells as observed in multiple fission of sporozoans etc. During this, parental nucleus divides several times with the help of mitosis without cytokinesis which produces several nuclei within a parent cell. The cytokinesis then takes place which results in separation and production of multiple daughter cells.
