How does mass extinction affect species that survive?

Biology

The mass extinction may cause the arrival of new species in the new and changing environment.

Further Explanation:

Mass extinction is the phenomenon when there is the extinction of many organisms or the group of an organism from the Earth due to change in environmental condition as it would not allow the survival of these organisms in the new environmental condition. This may cause the appearance of a new organism or the spread of mutant organisms in the prevailing environment that may play new roles. Hence new kind of ecosystem may be formed in the changing environment and those organisms that survive or get adapted to this condition may reproduce more and increase in number.

Therefore mass extinction although causes removal of some organism but may provide a new platform for the arrival of new kind of species and formation of a new ecosystem.

<span>When there is a mass extinction, species that survive will combine gene pools. A gene pool is the sum of population of same species have the same genetic material. Those species that survived will combine for them to survive from extinction. If there is a combination of gene pool then there will be a possibility that evolution will happen</span>

What is the name of the process by which the cytoplasm divides in two?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Cytokinesis

Explanation:

All living cells undergo division, it is the method employed in duplicating themselves. The division of cells involves two major processes viz; karyokinesis and cytokinesis.

Karyokinensis involves the division of the genetic material (DNA) in the nucleus. The chromosomes are initially separated into opposite poles/ends inside the cell. After which the cytoplasm of the whole cell then separates resulting in two daughter cells each having its own genetic material. This process is called CYTOKINESIS.

Although CYTOKINESIS occurs in all eukarotes and prokaryotes, the way it occurs in the eukaryotic plant and animal cells differ in the sense that, in animals, it occurs with the formation of a cleavage furrow as a result of pinching inward of the cell membrane until the two daughter cells form while in plants, a cell plate is formed at the cell's centre and a new membrabe and cell wall is formed around each cell plate.

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) is a slowly progressive, degenerative, fatal disease affecting the central nervous system
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

<u><em>The correct option is C) Prions</em></u>

Explanation:

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE)  or Mad Cow Disease  is a disease which occurs due to transmissible particles known as prions. Prions cannot be considered as living organisms as they do not acquire many of the living characteristics. They are just considered as a protein which gest converted into an activated, toxic form  as soon as they encounter a host cell. This toxic protein harms the central nervous system (CNS) of the cow host and is transmissible.
