Describe how environmental changes can cause species to become extinct.

Biology

denis-greek [22]4 years ago

Many species, or at least the region they live in, need a relatively narrow set of environmental criteria to be true in order to survive.  For example, if an alligator in the Florida wetlands experiences a long-term drought, the plants that the smaller animals eat can dry up and those animals die.  Then the alligators have no animals to eat so they could die.  If this was to happen over a long period of time and on a worldwide scale, a species could become extinct.

I hope that helps.

In which of the following ways are bacteria similar to birds
pentagon [3]

Answer:

They both use DNA as their genetic material.

Explanation:

Bacteria are simple prokaryotic organisms which lack membrane bound organelles. On the other hand, birds like higher organisms are eukarotyotic organisms with proper membrane bound organelles. Other than this that both bacteria and birds are living organisms,  one way in which bacteria and birds are similar is that they both have DNA as genetic material which they pass to their offspring. Although in the case of bacteria there is no variation is offspring however in case of birds there can be because genetic shuffling takes place and offspring is not an exact replica of parents while in case of bacteria they are.

Hope it helps!
