It is the transfer of genes from one gene pool to another.
Evolution Due to environmental factors, It may not look it, but, needles are leaves, they collect solar radiation to produce glucose through the process of photosynthesis, however, needles are, some would say, evolutionary superior to leaves. Needles themselves hold in more water due to their dense wax coating, they are very difficult for insects and other organisms to eat, one because of their structure, and two because of their acidity, they can catch sunlight all year long due to their winter resilience( they don't fall, during the winter), and they have less surface area for wind to catch, which leaves them better protected from wind than most deciduous trees, however the surface area can also pose a larger problem for less surface area means less sunlight interception, therefore more are needed to compete against regular leaves. But.. I Digress... Plant needles are 'PROBABLY' initially the result of evolution of narrow leaves due to climate or environmental factors.
Sry its so long got carried away! Hope this helps xD
Umm is this a trick question?
Answer:
The zebra mussels also outcompete the natives for food and space, and because of their fast reproduction can quickly overwhelm a water system.
Explanation:
The feeding habits of zebra mussels can also have a drastic impact on an infested lake. Zebra mussels are filter feeders that siphon particles of plankton from the water.
Fungi kingdom characteristicsThe kingdom Fungi includes a vast variety of organisms such as mushrooms, yeast and mold, made up of feathery filaments called hyphae (collectively called mycelium). Fungi are multicellular and eukaryotic.
