Answer:

Principles of Geology

Explanation:

J. Henslow gifted Darwin the first volume of Principles of Geology, written by Charles Lyell. The book explains about the old age of the earth. Accordingly, the slow rate of several geological processes suggests that the earth is very old.

Darwin read the book as the ship was crossing the Atlantic and learned about geological processes occurring over the millions of years. For example, he learned that the earth's surface was not formed by some catastrophic event.

In his book, Lyell explained the slow and gradual geological processes like erosion gave rise to the vast landscapes present on the earth's surface.

Darwin compared the time taken by geological processes to form the earth's surface and reasoned if these millions of years were enough to support the evolution of species.

Which statement correctly describes interactions between organisms in this ecosystem?
Nikitich [7]
An ecosystem involves both the biological (plants, animals, human beings) and non-biological (land, water, soil, and atmosphere) community which interacts as a system. More importantly, the living things are very dependent on the abiotic community since it cannot survive by itself. Every animal, plant and human needs the primary physiological needs of water, food and shelter provided by the abiotic system.

If used with wisdom, the earth has sufficient resources to sustain its human population. True False
romanna [79]
True. If we all work together to conserve our resources, then the earth will be able to sustain its human population. In this century, many people don't really care about conserving resources because they are too careless to think about how much resources we are wasting on a daily basis. If everyone realizes how much resources we are wasting and helps to conserve them, than earth will have sufficient resources to sustain its human population.
hope this helps:)
