Answer: Mosses retain soil humidity and prevents its degradation, besides are habitat for little invertebrates.

Explanation: Mosses are non-vascular plants (they don't have conductive vessels as xylem and phloem) that live places as tree trunks, rocks, walls and soils. This habitats must be humids because mosses need water for nutrient transport,  because they don't have cuticle (prevents water lost) and for fertilization. Mosses are important for the ecosistems where they live because retain water in the soils thus prevent erosion and  harbor invertebrates as Tardigrades (water bears).

These penguins are all members of the species Aptenodytes patagonicus. What is the difference between a species and a population
Vikki [24]

Answer:

A species refers to the group of similar organisms that can interbreed to produce a viable offspring. For example, <em>Homo sapiens </em>is a species of humans, <em>Panthera leo </em>refers to the species of lions et cetera.

In contrast, a population in ecology refers to the group of organisms of the same species living in a particular area. For example, the deer population in a forest, human population in a town et cetera.

For example, <em>Aptenodytes patagonicus </em>refers to a species of penguins but number of penguins of the same species living in a particular area would make up a penguin population of that area.
